Default 1996 Gr Cherokee

Any advice appreciated. The AM radio stopped working. Fm works pretty well, not all of the stations come in though. Of course, the only two that I like to listen to are the ones that aren't coming in on the FM dial. Anyone have any tips or ideas on how to fix this, from the simplist to the more difficult, I would appreciate it. Thanks!

My advice would be to swap the stock radio out with an aftermarket.
If you don't care about having a CD player, or MP3 hook-up, you could buy just an aftermarket AM/FM radio, maybe with a cassette deck for $40.00 or so.
You can buy a bracket mounting kit and wiring harness adaptor from Wal-Mart for pretty cheap and off you go.
I think the internal antenna for AM is toast.

Good luck!

the first time you asked this question you were given the first/easiestthing to check,did you check it?...which was if the antenna was plugged into the back of your radio
