Radio stopped working

[Divexxtreme]

Do you guys know if there is a specific fuse for the radio....either in the fuse panel or in-line to the radio itself? Mine stopped working today, and since it has what seems to be no power at all anymore...it's probably a fuse.

FYI...I don't have the fuse plan that normally sits behind the fuse panel cover. It didn't come with the car. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Seems like I remember reading that it's on the back of the radio.

The radio fuse on a MY01 TT is D8 (on the fuse panel). That would be, the forth row down and 8th fuse from the left. Should be 7.5 A.

Thanks Loren. I'll check the whenI get home. But is there also one on the back of the radio like ebaker mentioned? I've always seen radios that had another fuse other than the one in the fuse panels on other cars.

Just checked the fuse in the fuse panel. It's a 15 amp fuse and it's fine. Checked all of them actually. They are all fine. Frustrating.

Update: Just got confirmation there IS a fuse on the back of the radio. And you need a special tool to remove the radio to get to it. I'm currently trying to trck down the part # for the tool.

Problem solved. Went to the dealer...asked one of the techs if I could borrow his radio removal tools...and swapped out the fuse in the parking lot.

I hope this thread helps someone else out in the future.
