If all fuses are OK, you have to use DRBIII scan tool. Regular OBD-II scanner won't do.

If it has three tone controls with yellow leds that are flashing, it can only be repaired at one of the factory authorized repair shops. To be sure, pull the radio out to check the model number. If it ends in a "67", it has a defective microprocessor built by North American Philips, the same people who build the really crappy Magnavox and Sylvania tvs.

These problem radios were used in the older, 1999 - 2001 cars, so I'm not sure if this applies to your radio. It's not likely a transplanted radio either because the plug is different in 2003 cars.

There is a cd / cassette version built by Mitsubishi that has one extra button, but otherwise it looks exactly the same, and can run the same remote cd changer.

Holler back with your model number.
