Q: Radio Not Turning On
My battery died recently from sitting for too long without a start. When we charged the battery, the radio stopped turning on. We though it was a fuse, however I pulled all fuses out of both boxes and none of them are broken. The Bluetooth connects on the dashboard just fine, but no sound comes out of my speakers and the screen remains black when you turn it on. Any idea what could be happening?
