A[ popular problem I hear second only to tape deck 1 not playing is the FM radio not playing in stereo,,,, mono is fine but the Green light refuses to Glow. Here is a tip to solving the problem On the tuner board there is a surface mount trim-pot Its location is VR002 It's value is 5k OIhMs you'll find it towards the right front of the pc board...if you measure across and find meg OhMs it is open and should be replaced. it's tricky to get to the bottom of the board and you may not want to mess with the dial cord and pullys or remove the chassis from its cabinet...so you can mount a new control from the top by carefully clipping old control from board leaving the metal tabs....then you can solder a new one carefully to the metal tabs that remain. Don't use too much heat or you'll melt the solder beneath the board. I suggest this short cut method of replacement b/c sometimes that dial pulley can get away from you and the sting becomes unraveled and turns into an all day affair for some. If you feel confident that you won't let the pulley get away from you then you can remove the tuner board and replace the pot in the conventional manner. i always recommend to those not familiar w/ dial cord stringing to steer clear of and work carefully around the dial cord....I myself have melted one w/ a soldering pencil and let me tell you it is a most unpleasant occurrence! it might be wise to check other surface mount trim pots while you're in there since they lay flat on the board dust and stuff settles on them and they corrode and go bad. you can also check vroo1 ,,, its a 220 ohm and is about 2 inches away from the other trim pot on the tuner board. Lets all get our Conions playing is stereo turn em all on at the same time and knock the earth off its axis.
