I've had the same thing happen with my radio. I've never had a vehicle radio go out on me until now. A few months ago, it started going black, then would fade in and out, then the radio sound went totally silent. Radio would play a couple seconds, then go out, so we started paying Sirius XM because the satellite worked. We've been using that for a couple of months, but now, even the satellite is starting to go. It's doing the click, blank no sound, then sound for 3 seconds, click, then no sound for 2 seconds, continuously cycling. Really frustrating. I really didn't want to pay for another radio, but I guess I'm going to have to pay someone to look at it and see if it just needs to be replaced. There's no rhyme or reason what will make it play correctly or what will make the display work or go black. It has a mind of its own.
