Default Broken Radio in a C5. PLEASE HELP!!!

Hey all,

My girlfriend was driving my C5 with a stock radio and went to go and change between CD and FM radio and the radio made a popping sound and now it wont work.

It is making a weird noise every 10 seconds or so even when the car is off like it is trying to turn on or something. Car works fine it seems but the radio is possibly broke.

Any ideas what it could and if I have to get a new radio for it? Thank you.

With the car off it's making noise? I'd pull the fuse in case it decides to catch fire.

I'll buy your old radio ***** if you trash the radio, let me know.
