out.

Our Cherokee's radio is also possessed and does strange things like you
describe. This week it only wants to work on AM and the display is off.

I 'know' I had a dead main body ground strap for a while so some major
ground stealing was going on. The radio seems to be a place that allows
a ground loop easily so I figure I fried something then.

I lifted the back seat and hit the damn thing with a rubber mallet, as soon
as I did this the radio sprang back to life. Must have been a loose
connection. Thanks to all for help.
