A close friend is a former stereo etc installer, he thinks it could be a cable or the sucky connectors. They offered to "send it out for repairs" for $150. The thing that bumms me out is that for 4 years, my husband drove the car and save for getting creamed by a dump truck (who left the scene) some recalls and a cat under warranty, he had no problems. I get the car in April this year, had to fix the tail light assembly ($367 dealer quote) with a $2 tube of silicone, replace the washer relay, put up with an aching hot summer with no A/c, (dead compressor) get flatbedded to the dealer for a spent alternator, only to lose my right channel. Man o man. "

I have my old stereo out of my Contour I'll sell you. $50 bucks plus whatever shipping is. It is the factory AM/FM cassette player, and I took it out when the car had 30,000 mi so it is in like new condition. Looks flawless, functions flawlessly. Interested? E-mail me if you would like to inquire on it.
