DETAILS
This works on am/fm/cd6 radios ONLY. The face (trimplate, knobs, buttons, etc) are NOT included. This is for the control/display board only and is only intended to solve problems with burnt out button back-lighting. If your radio has other problems, this won't necessarily solve them. If your display is out, for instance, this board will likely not solve the problem.
In rare cases, there can be a problem on your mainboard which prevents your buttons from lighting. If all your button lights are out, this might not solve your problem. If you know all your button lights went out at once, this board will not solve your problem.
We have noticed some radios display the bar indicators a little weird with these boards. The functions and the adjustments still work, but the on-screen indicator looks 'weird' in some cases. This occurs when you press the small AUDIO knob on the far right or possibly when you adjust the volume.
**A very small number of CD6 radios have a Tune knob that was rotated 45 degrees and the print on your Tune knob will be off-kilter with this board, as a result. If you want to see if yours has the rotated Tune knob, pull your existing Tune knob off, along with the white shaft behind it. Then look at the green socket that is left on the board when you remove the white shaft. If there is a groove on the inside of the socket at the very bottom of it, as well as grooves 90 degrees to each direction of the bottom one, this will work for you. Again, it works in the majority of cases but you should check to make sure since returns are not accepted.

Assembly is pretty easy. You will only need a regular screwdriver to remove the face and a 1/8 nut driver to remove the display/control board from your face. You will also have to pull the knobs off the front of your face.
You should NOT attempt this repair with the radio plugged in. A short can result. Make sure you unplug your radio from the vehicle harness and let it sit for at least 30 minutes! Theftlock will NOT be activated since your VIN is stored in memory in the radio.
