Re: [DML] Hissing sound, radio removal, center console removal

Jim,
So you have 'kind of' gotten the radio out WITHOUT removing the console?
Unless you have an aftermarket DIN radio, you must be a magician. The same
bracket that holds the radio also holds the mode switch. In order to get
the radio out, you need to get the bracket out. And before you get the
bracket out, you need to remove the console. If you take all this apart,
then be careful with the center air vents. There is a flexible vinyl duct
connecting the vents to the a/c. It is very easy to put it back on wrong
and mess up your air flow.

Once you have the mode switch in hand, you might find that your problem was
a hose that pulled loose or the rubber seal inside has dried out. Just take
it apart, clean it and then lube it up with a very small amount of silicone
grease. It should be as good as new after that.
