Audio Systems: Lexus RX 300 Pioneer Radio, lexus rx 300, rf amplifier


Question
I have a 2002 and the radio just quit working.  It is a pioneer with auto antenna.  the antenna doesn't go up either.  I found 2 fuses (1 under hood, 1 by drivers door) which I checked and are OK.  Might there be more?  How do I know if the radio is dead?  Thanks for the help!

Answer
There is another fuse for the antenna and the rf amplifier. I don't know where it is hidden, but probably under the dash near the radio OR near the power antenna.

If you find the fuse and that solves the problem, fine.  But if not, this car and its installation is potent enough and of high quality that you don't want to be messing around with it on an amateur basis.  I recommend you just drive in to a shop and let an expert look at it.

Good Luck,
