1997 Lexus Es300 Radio

[KDEW2]

MY 1997 ES300 RADIO GOES IN AND OUT EVERY SO OFTEN. IT DOESN'T DO IT FOR EVER BUT I HAVE NOTICED THAT WHEN THE WEATHER IS CRAPPY IT GOES OUT MORE OFTEN THAN WHEN THE WEATHER IS FINE. I THINK IT MAYBE MY AMP BUT NOT SURE ANY SUGGESTIONS. ALSO THE LCD SCREEN AND A FEW BULBS FOR THE RADIO CONSOLE ARE EITHER DIMMING OR TOTALLY OUT IS IT EASY ENOUGH FOR A NOVICE TO FIX. MY WIFE WOULD KILL ME IF I START DOING IT AND THEN I CAN FINISH IT. IT SOUNDS EASY BUT I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE. PLEASE HELP!!!!

THANKS

Sounds like the head/amp is failing. :cries:

If you decide to replace the radio with a working headunit, Let me know. I have one.
