This helped so much I was months without a radio trying to figure it out and this was the only video that helped me! Thanks a lot man ! 🙏🏼

Worked on my frozen radio/aux in 2009 F-150. Took about 5 minutes and also brushed off a bit of corrosion on the battery terminal while at it. Thanks!

That is one sweet fix! Why I love KZfaq and the guys like you who post the fixes!

Thank you soooooo much for posting this video. I checked my fuses because my radio wasn't working and they were all good. I was puzzled until I saw your video. Great Job and knowledge.

Thank you for the video. My radio stopped working about 9 months ago. I never got it fixed but on Christmas Eve (less than a week ago), I got in and started 2009 F-150 and to my surprise, I was listening to Christmas music. It was right after a pretty cold freeze (for Houston anyway)... I don't know if that had anything to do with it but I was really happy for my early Christmas present. Almost immediately I thought, "How does anybody live without a radio?"

My 2010 Ford F150 did this for the first time in 12 years. For a few days I drove with no radio or cd player working. Over the weekend I was loading things in and out of my truck and at one point I left the area to feed the dogs and the open door drained the battery. Luckily I have a battery charger. I charged the battery and let it run for about 10 minutes and it reset everything. My radio and stations all intact as well as the cd working! I will use your easier method if this should happen again. Thank you for posting! Be well.🌞

Hey thanks for the video! This really helped but also FYI instead of bridging the cables you can just leave the lights on for a couple minutes while the battery is unplugged- this worked for me

THANKS !!! Worked like a charm on my 2013 F 150 I can only imagine how many people have taken it to the "stealer" to fix this!

Dude you are my savior my f150 did this to me about 6 months ago thought I needed a new radio just watched your vid yesterday 1/21 thanks for the vid

Excellent advice. I was a little skeptical but you’ve made me a believer. Who would’ve thought discharging a capacitor like that would bring back my radio. 😁 🎶

Blown away when these things work so easily.. thank you for making this video!!And glad I did the KZfaq search before trying anything else!

thank you, this worked on my 2010, I tried everything, and then I googled how to fix it and your video popped up, thank you

This worked on my 2011, thank you so much for posting this video. It's tips like this that help so much!!!!

Thanks for the tips about resetting the radio, and using the socket to ease the battery connectors back in place. I often use an oversized socket to push something on to where it is supposed to go, but it is easy to fail to apply techniques you know to procedures you haven't used them on before, i.e. replacing and snugging up the battery connectors. I hope this tip and the system reset tip are 2 great tips I'll never forget. Thanks for making this video.

Thank you for making this. It WORKED like a charm. 👍👏

Awesome! Thank you. I was going crazy cause all fuses were good but I couldn't figure it out. Thanks againd Dewey, I owe you a beer or two or whatever beverage you prefer.👍👍👍

Thanks for this video! Just tried it on my 2009 F150 and it resolved the issue!

Thank you for that video! That is exactly what my '09 F150 radio has done. I will try your fix tomorrow. :)

Works! makes sense crossing the disconnected batt leads and by draining the Cap's. 2013 f 150 the clock display was flashing and had no radio functions.

You need to have a tip jar in your description brother, so those who want can send you some coffee money!

First time it happen to me , but its working now👍thank buddy for the video i save a couple of hundreds 😅

Just tried it and it worked! Thank you for posting this video.

Great video had to do this last minute before a 7 hour trip and worked perfectly

You rock buddy it works thank you very much

Worked great - THANKS!

It rilly work thanks for the video

Thanks man it just worked for me too. 6/2/22

Problem solved, thank you!!!

My 13 has cut out mid drive 2 times this year and has a random "power off to save battery" message after about 10 seconds with the engine off. I replaced the battery (10 year old battery) and then these things started happening. I will give this a try and as a mechanic by trade I will say this will not hurt anything. If for some reason you don't feel comfortable touching the cables try turning the headlights on with the battery disconnected or just let it sit overnight with no battery connection.

Works for my 2009 f150

worked perfect-thanks

Thanks 😊😊😊

Amazing thank you , it worked

How did you figure that out!!!!! Great!!

This is not working for me.Nlthing lights up on any of the radio controls. Fuses look ok. Any other suggestions

Best video ever.

Muchas gracias buen vídeo 👍

Worked! Thank you

Thx a million it works

Muy buen video me acaba de pasar lo mismo. Y creo que tengo esa misma troca del video. Yo la compre.

My radio stopped working well over a week ago. I'm hoping it's the fuse, but I'll try your way first. Do you happen to know what number fuse the radio is? Amp size? Thanks Great video.👍😎

worked thank you

Thank you !!!

Not all heroes 🦸🏻 wear capes!!!!

I’m hoping y’all can help. I touched the cables together, I used a wire, I’ve pulled fuses. #9 controls my audio. I verified this worked with the fuse pulled. I’ve tried all this, the clock and radio are still doing the same exact thing. HELP! Don’t have the money for an expensive fix

My 09 ford just did this this morning I had to drive with no radio or Aux

Will this work on my 2003 ford f150 ?

I've had the same issue and I tried your fix but it only worked for two days then the radio turned off again. Disconnecting the battery fixes it but only for a day or two.

My clock is flashing and raido wont turn on. Ive heard some cracking in my speakers but all my fuses are good. Any ideas? Should I try this?

Thanks

Hello, I bought a truck like this and the radio doesn't work, it only shows me the same sign as in the video on the screen but blinking, I already checked the fuses and they are all fine, what else could be happening?

Does not work out for me, still the same screen. 1. I took off the positive 2. Took off the negative 3. Touch together 4. Positive back 5. Negative back what do i do wrong?

Would this same process work ? Mine that display Doesent light up at all any more radio works power on but that Doesent light up so I dunno what station the n s e w temp outside etc Doesent light up ?

It didn’t work for mine Is there any options available

Mine is the time is stuck anyone with the same problem?

I’ve tried it several times and it doesn’t work for me. Mine flashes the time and won’t come on at all. I’ve done everything possible. So if anyone can let me know what to do it would be great thank you in advance

Darnet... Didn't work for me. Clock flashes.... Thats it. If you push load on the CD player button. CD player goes crazy until you turn the truck off

Did this and it didn’t fix the radio but did ruin my heating and ac

I try but it’s not work😢

How do you know the fuse is bad

I tried this and it did not work.

Mine says "Sound design by sony"

Beating on the battery terminal, NOOB move there Einstein!!
