Any SAAB Enthusiasts?

I just picked up a '96 9000 Turbo CSE. I have the factory harmon kardon and while replacing the power antenna, it just quit, the thing is tuning the CD plays just no freaking sound.
Any ideas?

If you are not familiar they have a pretty kick *** Stereo in them and mine is silent

First one I drove didn't even have a radio, and you had to pour in 2 cycle oil with the gas at the pump! Looked like a stretched out Volkswagen. It was a screamer though.

I guess they've come a long way since then.

Go over what you did fixing the antennae and maybe check for disconnected cabes or blown fuses.

I drive a '97 900 4rd hatchback sport model. It doesn't have the kahunas I'd like (2.3L), but it's loaded like a Cadillac. Got it for dirt cheap too.
Once I get the dents out of the door I'll be looking for new 6X9s for the back (one blew out). I'd like to soup it up a little, but I don't really want to stick a lot of $ into a car that's been in a rollover.

No clue about the radio though. Sorry.
