The wife and I went to our favorite ice cream shop last evening. On the way home, turned on the old wonderbar and had nothing, no sound at all. There is power to the radio and speaker as far aa I can tell and the fuse looks OK The radio has not been turned on for about the last month. Also the radio was rebuilt almost one year ago. Where do I go from here other than pulling the radio & speaker and sending it out for repair ? Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Re: 56 Wonderbar
Jeff,
Check your antenna cable also. I had the same symptoms. If it is the cable, the radio is likely to scan forever, without stopping, because it cannot find a signal. The radio will not generate any sound to the speaker. Just disconnect the antenna on each end and run an ohm check on the cable with the help of a jumper wire.
