I have a1997 Nissan Quest GXE 132K miles, yestday the radio would not turn on. No display, no sound nothing. Then I did a stupid thing, I stuck my portable CD player (tape) into the tape player thinking maybe I could get the portable CD player to offer me music but guess what, now the tape is stuck, ,. the antena will come up, but as I said not dispay and no sound. All 3 fuses are ok.
any idea what could be the problem?

Check your power supply. This will involve you taking out the head unit, unless you can access it from the back. Look for a red wire, i think that is your power wire.

OK, there are a number of wires that make your radio work. There is an antenna wire, that plugs from your car's built in radio receiver to your radio. Its big and bulky and fits straight in the back. There is a memory wire. The memory wire keeps your settings locked into the radio, this wire has a constant power supply from somewhere as to keep the memory stored. There is a ground wire, usually green or black, it will be screwed to something metal in your car as to ground the unit. There is a POWER WIRE. This is the one you want. It is usually red and is wired to your accessories on your igntion switch. This one is the problem. As i stated before, you need to somehow, look at the back of your radio where the wires come out. Find the power wire and trace it back to your ignition, or look at it and see if it is cut, broken or damaged. If you cannot do this yourself. Contact a mobile mechanic, tell him what i have told you and he will fix it for you. Max cost 1hr labour. Do not let him tell you different! If he says the power wire is ok, then you may be up for a new radio. Either way, this should cost you maximum 1 hr labour..
Hope i am speaking english now.
