2008 F150 4-Door Radio/CD player will not work
Gentlemen. I have a 2008 F150 4 door 5.4 V8. It's your standard F150. Power Steering, Power Brakes, Radio/CD Player and A/C. It has just a little over 120 thousand miles on it. Until now I haven't had any problems with it. About a week ago I got in and cranked the truck and radio, clock didn't come on. I thought it was turned off so I pushed the button a couple of times with no results. That evening I checked the fuse and the fuse wasn't blown but I checked it anyway and it was good. But I still replaced it with a new fuse that I checked to make sure it was good and the result was the same. No radio or clock. I have been told that there's another fuse behind the radio that could be blown. So here's my questions. First is there another fuse behind the radio. Second is how do you get the radio out and the third question is can you buy a refurbished one and if so where and what would the cost be. Or could it be something else.

Thanks BandBFord for your reply. The battery hasn't been disconnected. As I stated in my thread I checked the radio fuse with is F07 and found it was good but still replaced it anyway. I will check the other 3 fuses and see if one of those is the problem and reply back with the result. Thanks again for your reply.

Hey BandBFord. I went out to my shop and checked each fuse. Pulled and checked them with my meter and cleaned them and reinstalled them in order. Upon completion I cranked the truck and the radio can on. Reset the clock. Checked the station presets, that was all good and also the CD player worked as well. I don't know which fuse was the problem. It doesn't matter now. The radio works again thanks to your suggestion about checking all the fuses that could have something to do with the radio not working.
