2001 T&C Radio quit

Does anyone know which fuse is for the radio?
Thanks

Probably the one that's open.

Look up the location and size in your owners manual. Should also be
listed on the fuse panel cover or nearby.

Also, may not be the fuse in the fuse panel but a internal failure of
the radio.

The owners manual is not much help. I don't see a fuse marked
specifically for the radio in the fusebox. I pulled and checked all the
15 amp fuses but none were blown. Surely there is a fuse somewhere?

Buy a new radio.

Yes, I'd say that even with today's technology it is still not
reasonable to expect a fairly low-end car to make $100K with zero out of
warranty repairs. Now, a $100K Mercedes is different, but a $25K car
isn't the same.

Occasionally, you will find a car that will make $100K with no repairs,
but that is unusual. My 89 Acclaim came the closest of any car I've
had, but it required a few repairs prior to 100K. The worst I've had
was a Honda Accord that required replacement of exhaust system, struts,
rear brake drums, front brake rotors, and a top-end engine overhaul (cam
and full set of rocker arms) all prior to 80K miles, in addition to
several warranty repairs (cruise control - recall, AC - warranty, rear
window leak - warranty, etc.).
