Audio Systems: 98 Ford Ranger Volume control intermittent, face board, ligths

Question
I just bought a '98 Ford Ranger. The stereo works except once in awhile I'll attempt to change the volume and it won't. This is a am/fm/tape/cd factory stereo. I hope you can tell me some easy solder fix!!!

Answer
BINGO  that is the problem did you read about it somewhere else ?
you have to remove the face from the radio and resolder the volume board i next tot he big face board  also read about the ligths and power supply problem it will be a good idea to resolder the 1 watt resistors since the radio is open good luck
