Radio quit

Quit as in black screen, no sound. 2008 F350sd. I checked all three radio fuses with n Ohm meter. I even checked the fuse for the woofer. All were good. Any insight would be appreciated

They had to replace the radio in my '08. Wasn't totally dead like yours (the steering wheel controls didn't work), but it seems like a lot of radios in the '08 had problems. May be time to put in a nice aftermarket unit!

Had an '08 that quit reading the aux in port, new H/U off ebay fixed it. Can be had for under $50.

You can pull the unit from the dash and look for power at the connector.

Which radio? They offered a few different models.

I have a 6CD from an '08 that was in my '09 when I bought it. Radio works, CD does not, so I replaced it with an aftermarket unit.
