How about some more info...... Year, make and model What exactly is it doing or not doing? Is it showing security lock? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

That just sounds like a problem with the radio or amp. I doubt it has anything to do with the dead battery accept maybe accelerating the failure from trying to run it on low power. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

Repairing a radio is always a losing proposition, regardless of who repairs it. The normal path here is to just verify that the radio and any separate amp is receiving all the proper power supplies and grounds before you condemn it and then just install an aftermarket radio. It's a lot cheaper. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.
