[V8] Bose Radio failure

[Roger M. Woodbury]

While I was waiting for my wife to finish with her appointment this morning, I pulled the Bose radio head unit out of its slot.  This time I unplugged it completely and looked at it from all sides, finding a 5 amp fuse in the back of the radio.

I removed the 5 amp fuse and naturally, since it was pouring rain and I was comfy, dry and warm in the driver’s seat, I dropped the 5 amp fuse down between the driver’s seat and the console.  Not to worry:  I had a package of fuses in the glove box, popped one in, replugged the unit and found.........NOTHING. 

I will play around with my handy-dandy electric probe later, but I suspect my Bose head unit has died....unless there is yet another fuse inline, which makes NO sense to me whatsoever.  Unless an over abundance of inline fuses was what caused the price of these cars to be so high originally.
