Replaced the capacitors but all I get is a hum
#38

Check your power source. Make sure you still have power coming to the radio. DeOxit D5 won't damage anything, at least it never has for me. Generally, if nothing comes on on the radio, it's your power source, the cord, or the power switch on the radio.
