i too am experiencing a casual fading of my radio lights. But more importantly i have noticed that when i eject a cd from the player, the cd is almost too hot to handle. What would be causing the cd itself to be so hot?
It'd be nice to know just WTF we're working on before we toss out a guess...
im sorry! 98 FORD Explorer limited! Factory issue radio/cd/tape....am/fm....
The hot CD syndrome isn't any better on the newer ones though they have updated the player (in dash) to include a fan similar to those in a PC. The fading display is a relatively common problem..... Google this NG for "radio display" and there should be something there for you.
