Ford Radio Display Out on '98, '99, 2000 Radio – the Fix
Question:
I had the same problem with my 99 EB this summer. Fortunately it was still under warranty and the dealer swamped out the radio without any charge. I guess I was one of the lucky ones to catch the problem before the infamous 3yr/36K set in. todd

I did this repair on my ‘98 at the end of the summer, and I haven’t had a problem since. I highly recommend getting the removal tool, as I had trouble using the bent coathanger trick. Popped right out with the tool.

I see that there are a lot of people experiencing the problem on their Ford Mach Radios where the display is going out…everything else works fine, however, the display is dead. It seems to appear in radios of Explorers and other Ford SUVs in Model years from 1998 to 2000. If this is what you are experiencing, then go see some information put together (including step-by-step pictures) explaining how to fix this problem (if you are capable with a solder iron and electronic repairs) at: www.shareamemory.com/radio Disclaimers – don’t try the fix without proper training. It may not be the same problem that mine had. Don’t hold me financially liable to any damage or expenses you may incur. I will not accept liablility for anyone’s repair attempts.
