Sounds like a cooling problem by obyone

Most stereos/radios have a heat sink and a cooling fan. If your fan has stopped working, it could lead to a buildup of heat in the unit forcing it to shut down before permanent damage is done.

The stereo in my 99 silverado has finally given up the ghost. My question is, is there a certian way to get it out of the dash, ie, schematics, so I dont break the plastic all up.

Hey evil,did you ever find out how that stereo comes out?
I just bought a 2006 1500 silverado wt that came with am/fm only and want to put a stereo with a cd player in it eventually. Just wanted to know how much of a hassle it is.
 
thanx

My radio keeps on resetting itself at random intervals. I'm not sure if it is when I turn it on or off, but I start it and my clock is back to 1:00 and my presets are gone. I've tried driving with all the lights on to see if that would trigger it when I started it the next time, but it's still random, about 1-5 days, sometimes twice a day. It won't kill me but I'd like to fix it.
Thanx.

Remove the trim piece around the radio by pulling on it the whole piece will come off. If you have an automatic you have to shift to first gear and tilt the steering column all the way down. then, you will have to remove the radio by pressing the 2 clips down on each side of the radio the radio will slide out. Then just disconnect the wiring.

What most likey it is a module (just for aftermarket radios)
so you will have door chimes, key buzzer,etc. after non-GM
radio installation.
All GM trucks 03? and after generate all their warning chimes THRU the factory Delco radio and sound off thru the
left speaker.
 
$150 bucks is pricy for this module if in fact that is what it is.
Have you asked a good stereo installation shop about this?
 
BTW: YES you can install a aftermaket stereo and not use this module........But no warning chimes!

2000 silverado dashlights by farmerkb

I have a 2000 silverado ext.cab and in the second year of our truck my cd player quit working. I have had no luck getting it to ever work so i just left it, I listen mostly to just the radio anyway. But now about 3-4 months ago we noticed the dash lights on the am/fm/cd unit, some lights quit. The preset buttons #2 and #5 and the SEEK button do not light up. Everything else lights up like they should as anyone every had this sort of problems????
