    What to do about the spakers tho... they're only compatible with a streo!

    In all seriousness, your antenna probably became detached from the head unit. Or it's fried.

    Some (a handful of) OEM radios have a setup option that sets how strong or weak of a signal a scan will look for. But if you're direct tuning to a known nearby station and you still get nothing then you likely have an antenna problem.

    If you have a input jack pick up a cheap satellite radio and never have any problems.

    Glad you got it sorted out.
    There's a reason the Eagles said 'don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy'... 'cause they will, if that's all you've got droning in the background.

    Enough of that. I trust I don't have to remind anyone here about forum rules on grammar and spelling critics.

    Now, that's more like it.
