Radio/Command shut off and won't come back on...

I have been having an odd problem lately. The radio went out a few months ago and I was never able to turn it back on. Tried unhooking the batt terminals and rehooking, nothing. Took it to my indy to look over and he did something through STAR/recalib and the radio came back. No problems for about a month and now the same problem has resurfaced. What else could be causing the radio/command not to turn on at all?

Any ideas?

I had a similar problem a while back. Sometimes the radio would work sometimes it wouldn’t. Then it finally quit working at all. STAR said the amplifier wasn’t communicating. Ordered a used amp from eBay and solved the problem.

Thank you. Any idea on the part # or link to what you ordered? Thanks again.

I had to pull my amp first and make sure the one I was ordering matched.

Don't all the E55's have the H/K?
