Radio Speakers not working

[krminyl@...]

I have a Privacy switch above my head, and to the left, where you switch on
the A/C and Elect Heater units. That switch might have been bumped off
accidentally. Also, it might sound elementary, but check your fader control on
the radio...make sure your front speakers are "on". As for the weird dimming
lights on the radio, sounds like a low voltage issue to the unit itself. Try
turning off the electronic master switch (the toggle switch found in a
cabinet...mine is in the overhead storage cabinet, street side, above the
little
glass front spice cabinet, then turning it back on. It might "re-boot" the
radio....make sure that your master switch is on at the same time (the one
under
the dash).

Also...did anyone have an Alpine radio in their BB (the one with a
detachable head, cassette, with a remote CD changer) lying around....maybe
someone who
has upgraded the radio? I sent my unit back to Alpine to replace the
illumination bulbs about a yr ago, and they have burnt out again...the display
is
dark, and unless you hold a light to the front of the display, you can't read
the radio display. the unit works fine, except for not being able to see
the display. Anyone???

Thanks..
