Default Radio issues...

Has anyone had any radio issues. I just bought a 1992 Convert and got it with a bummed radio. The guy told me he had the radio fixed in it a few months back and with in a month it stopped working. Now that i have it I need some tunes! Has anyone experienced this or is there something I should be checking? Thanks!!!

Yeah Bose radios in our C4s aren't made like Spicer u-joints.

If you look under general Corvette then to Audio you will see a sticky in that forum C4 Audio FAQ that's a good place to start.

For specific help post a more detailed statement of the problem, model year, and type of radio (AC/Delco/Bose/Bose Gold etc).

Great info, i'll check out that sticky. Thanks!

As for the info its a 1992 C4 convert, the radio says (Delco Bose Gold Series) It is a AM/FM, CD/Cass.

Heres the deal it will power on the display and time will light up but the time never changes it is always stuck on 4:02 and it will not produce any sound or music. Thanks again!!!

ooh sounds like it's time for Dr. Don (well known Bose repair service) or aftermarket replacement.

Will the time set if you turn the radio off and push the set button then channel up/down?

I hade a problem with my 95 . I found the the problem in behind passenger seat, under the carpet, there's a small panel look inside there. Mine wasn't working correctly because there was a disconnection between two wires they were not connected I snapped the two back together and my radio work. Look there.
