Default 2005 1500 radio quit working, cd works

The radio just quit, it scans but does not pick up any stations but the cd player works fine. I checked the wire to the antenna, cleaned it but still no radio. Has anyone had this problem and is it easily fixed without having to buy a new one? Thanks

Welcome to the site. I've seen a few threads on these and every one results in buying a new head unit. Now the decision is to buy a single din head unit with cd/mp3/sat down ect or a nicer double DIN head unit with all that plus dvd and navigation capabilities.

A single din needs only a simple wiring harness and install kit whereas the nicer and better looking double din needs to have a modified radio bezel for it to fit.

If you want to go that round then let me know as i make a lot of them for our dodge co-owners.

But either way, time to start price shopping.
