The radio/CD player suddenly stopped working. The power button does not push in. Could this be a fuse or do I need to take to a shop?

Check fuses # 1 (10 A) in fuse block, behind left side of dash.
# 56 and 67 ( both 15 A) in under hood fuse and fusible link box at left side of engine compartment. Here is a guide with the fuse locations below.

Turned out that it was related to disconnecting the battery when not in operation for a period of time. Disconnecting the battery, letting it sit, and then reconnecting was what it needed.

My car was sitting for a couple months then I tried to turn on the radio and would not respond. And the fuses are good. What to do next? Also, can I buy a new radio?

Hello,

Yep if the radio does not work and all the fuses are good its best to get a new aftermarket radio. Try Amazon they great prices.

Please let us know what happens.
