huh. it appears your door came from this one in OH:

very few even bother trying to fix the old radios. it's a real shame.

it's the same glass as any CHerokee, including 97+ years. not every glass place seems to know this.

how long before he's hunting down rare ford parts? place your bets!

I wanna come down for that first drive

use independent power to check the ground and independent groud to check for power. check for power at each step in that chart, including both sides of the fuse.

is there power? is there ground?

that's why parts-rigs are a viable path.

I ran 5.25 components in the doors and an 8" overpowered sub in a little box and loved it. buy quality and feed it power and you'll be happy.

it's ok. she looks good naked.

skills!

not everyone checks in every day. check the members map. might be someone up there.

just saw that Steve is taking orders again if anyone was in need. 3 months too late for the project truck in my drive though.

WD40 is not to be used on anything. ever. it can dissolve petroleum products (like other greases and oil based paints) and eventually just "evaporates" and makes things bad again. there are proper lubes you should own and administer to problems. a can of spray lithium grease is my go-to for most common squeaky things. dry lube is another for things like window channels where regular grease would eventually just smear all over the glass.

yup, I think you found it.

getting close!!

yup, it's amazing how far a little lube goes.

woohoo!!

did the 2 problems come on simultaneously?

yeah, the wiring harnesses frequently have... issues.
