My mom's 99 F-150, the radio plays CDs, the radio works and everything, however the display doesn't show anything, no clock, no station, nothing, it would look like it was off but it still works fine. I checked all the fuses already and there's nothing wrong there. Possibly the illumination in the radio display go out?? Anything else I can check??? Thanks in advance.
