Radio Problem - Please Help.

Something strange happened to the Radio/CD Unit today.
It was working, then I turn the car on and it doesn't.

The fuse is ok. And the rear passenger side speaker makes a noise like "took" and that's it.

What the hell could it be?

PS
Yes the volume was on.

Yeah the system is Bose.
How can I check if the amp is blown?
Could it be blown speakers? but all 4 at the same time?

What fuse did you check? The Bose system has more then 1 fuse. I dont have my car or FSM infront of me right now, but check the "audio" one under the driver dash, that one controls the power to the bose amp. The headunit might be workin but if the amps have no power then theres the answer.

If you wanna check out the bose deck. The top of the center console with the 2 vents and clock will just pop out, pry it out with a screwdriver but be carefull not to break clips or scratch dash. then pop out they shifter trim, it will just pop right out. unplug the wire for the cig lighter and you will see 1 black screw holding the ashtray in, unscrew it and work the ashtray out as it is also held in by 2 clips on right side. At this point you will see 2 brass screws on top where the vents and clock were and 2 brass screws at the bottom where the ashtray was. remove these 4 screws and the plugs on the back of climate control and the entire center will lift right off. You will be able to clearly see the bose deck and wiring. Good luck!

You could buy a Hayes Manual... no, no that would be too easy.

I had the same exact same problem!
What I had to do was disconnect the negative side
of the battery for about 2 mins and reconnect.
This fix is only temporary as the power supply needs a modification.
Hope it works as it did for me!

I never did the modifaction I just kept on unhooking the battery
every time it went down on me. But eventually the prb went away by it
self. I got this information from www.davescoolstuff.com.
