Depends on how it does the reset. Many radios have a key combination that
you push while turning on the power, which forces the CPU to reinitialize
itself, and has been known to bring "dead" radios back to life. Of course,
in this case it appears that you didn't have any power getting to the radio,
so a reset wouldn't have had any effect. Should have mentioned that as your
obvious first check, but it slipped my mind (bad clutch!). Glad you got it
working.

How do you do a reset when it doesn't even turn on ? Doesn't it need to
start up to do a reset ? Diane

Try doing a hard reset first, worth a try. If you don't know how, you
can
locate the manual on the Radio Shack website.
