No sound but radio has power - 1998 Ford Expedition

If your radio is getting power then your fuse is not burnt out. Your radio probably is the problem for not having any sound. the sound is a function of the internals of the radio. your best bet is to either go to the wrecking yard and purchase another radio that fits your Jeep compass. Install it and see the result. My gut feeling is that your current radio just went south and its time to replace it.

sounds like an overtemp sensor in radio.
Could also be an internal prob to radio

Something has been mis-wired. Ensure the speakers are in the speaker slots and the power (Neg and Pos labeled as well) are properly connected. It is fairly common to get the speaker pos and neg mixed up with the power pos and neg. Hopefully, no permanent damage was done. The problem is between your factory radio and the aftermarket power amp.

Sounds like you have a screwed up microprocessor. You could try to reset the unit by finding the main power and disconnecting it for 20 seconds. If you cannot find the power cable, you could try to disconnect the vehicle's battery for few minutes, then power up and see if that helps.

are you sure you have power on both sides of the fuse ie: used a test light to check it?

If the radio powers on, the fuse is OK. You probably have a bad output section in the radio.

because the light on the radio come on with dash lights doesn't mean the radio is working,check fuse for radio,if its good,check for power at radio connection,if you have power there see if you can see a change in stations when you turn knob,if you do make sure all connectors are plugged in radio,now go to an easy access speaker and plug in a known good speaker

the ic on the radio has gone,that cut the sound, must change or simply test another radio

one of the positive power wires to the speakers is shorting out.alot of times it's the door speaker wires.

the sound is the generater's ac power and the rectifier that filters the ac to dc in the radio is starting to fail or a filter inside the radio is failing to filter out the ac power
