Hi all,

I have a 1985 AE82-CS with the original head unit.

The CS model has the head unit with only radio and no cassette tape player.

Recently the FM radio has stopped working whilst the AM continues to work fine. When I change the source from AM to FM it doesn't even produce static. No fuses seem to have blowen and all wires I can see without removing the unit seem to be connected.

My next step would be to remove the head unit and check for any corrosion or back connections within the units internals. I was wondering before I did this if anyone had any other ideas for things to check and if not any advice on removing the head unit without damaging the plastic around it.

Cheers

Hi Liam,

              As the AM radio is working fine, the fault that is preventing You from receiving FM signals, is not fuse or externally related. 

I'm pretty sure the fault will be within the radio iteself; although a poor aerial connection, may allow AM stations that are strong, but prevent recption of FM signals.

I've never taken one out of the "head units", so I'm afraid I can't help You there.  It will require the removal to inspect. 

Cheers Banjo
