starter replacement, radio static

I had to have the starter replaced on my 2009 f250, after that some of my radio stations are staticky and the radio used to show the artist and song and it does not due that anymore. I checked all the connections, grounds and cant find anything. Any ideas?


Thanks, Brian

This is a bit of a stretch but here goes:

i bet the radio not displaying the songs is due to the battery being unplugged and your radio losing its saved settings.

I bet the static is due to you installing a cheap phone charger and plugging it into your 12v adapter.

Let me know.

A weak signal will cause the radio to not display data.

I wonder if they were near the radio antenna wire when they replaced the starter. It's possible they nicked the wire? I think it's right behind the plastic inner wheel well, maybe they removed the plastic to get to the starter?

Just a theory.
