My 01' just lost the volume on the radio. You can switch stations, change tracks on the CD, but the volume meter is stuck at 4 bars and no sound. Can't even adjust the volume bars up or down, just stuck at 4 with no volume.

Time for a new head unit. Try ebay. I found a new audiophile head unit for a 2000 for $54 shipped. Worked fine. Caveat Emptor.

Just out of curiousity (and lack of knowledge) can you name the components of the LS audio system? What I mean is, what is a "head unit" and what other units are there?
Eg: my LS has the 6 CD changer built into the radio. Seems to me if something goes Kaput, I need a new "radio with built-in CD changer". Or is that now called a Head unit? TIA

Head unit refers to the main control unit - the ones with all the knobs and displays. As opposed to a separate CD player or amplifier.
The 01 LS should have had 2 models - audiophile and premium.
Premium only had 4 door speakers. Audiophile had 4 door speakers plus 2 speakers on the center console and 2 subwoofers with a separate amp in the rear package shelf.
Just make sure it has the built-in 6 CD changer and it matches yours as far as premium vs. audiophile and it should work.

Thanks. Mine is not audiophile, but it does have speakers on the console, near where the knees would be. No subwoofer though.

You have the infamous Sport Audiophile. Everything is the same except they deleted the subwoofer to save weight for CAFE compliance on the sport models. You probably also have a cheap steel spare and no rear headrests IIRC. And no moonroof available either. I ordered mine in August 99 right before they made that change.

Removing the stock speakers is real easy, I can give you directions if you really need them. I had trouble with the front door panels at first but they are actually very easy as well.

I have an extra cd player and 6 disc changer if anyone is interested. I actually had an aftermarket head unit, all new door speakers, capacitor,amplifier and subwoofer installed....i am very happy with the new sound in my car. About $1200 invested.

I Already replaced them but thanks anyway! Wow, thats alot for two subwoofers! I had to remove the entire back seat, the two post pillars, seat belt harness, brake light and rear deck. It gave me a chance to clean the upholstery though. The amp had a short so I soldered the points. The new subs sound great. Just a hand full of shops sell 6x9 subwoofers so I got mine from the dealer ($75.apiece) Can't put the bass on level 4 without the mirrors vibrating.
