There's also the amplifier under the carpeted cover next to the passenger door. Be careful not to reset the Oxygen sensor counter (I pushed the button, not knowing what it was).
Not worth repairing the original radio. Pull it, save it and put in one that is up to date with all the goodies. If you sell the car, then new owner can fix/install the old radio if he wishes, but why??? Some things just need to be put on the shelf. I mean does anyone listen to a spark gap transmitter in Morse Code!
