Something about my Stock Radio
Saturday, April 22, 2006 8:04 PM
Okay, I was in my friend's 2000 cavalier sedan. Her radio looks slightly different from mine but only because a few buttons were different.

And I noticed something...

the numbers/words on the Stock unit light up when she turns on her headlights... and mine don't turn on at all...

in fact, they never have since I purchased the car, I memorized the buttons and can change stations or eject the CD or whatever I want to do from memory..

but I was wondering...

Does my radio have a short somewhere or is it actually designed to light up? I'm confused about this. not that it makes a huge difference, but it's strange.....

there is a chance that your bulbs are burnt out or the parking light wire is shorting and/or disconnected
