A couple of days ago, after listening to CD's for a long time, I tried to turn on my radio to find only static. I scanned the frequencys to only find no stations. Some of AM comes in but FM is nowhere to be found. Anyone have any ideas on what could of gone bad or disconnected?

I went and checked the antenna connection in the spare tire compartment. It seems to be ok, I unplugged it and plugged it back in and still no FM reception.

I've got the same problem. CDs work, no FM, AM works. Antenna connection is good. I haven't found a solution yet. I'm assuming I need to replace the head unit. I've been turning the radio down to listen to the sound of the tailpipe.

Have you checked the radio connection in the back of the radio too?

Also, it might be better to post this in the Car Stereo Forum.

Mine was the opposite, the CD player crapped out.

These gents seem to specialize in repairing Bose systems if it comes to that....

Ace,
Thanks for the link. That's very helpful. I'll probably send mine in. Even though it's kind of expensive, it's a lot less than a different head unit.

Again, thanks.
