2001 Grand Prix radio display

I have seen many accounts here of no display but mine was different. The display image was unreadable at times. It might say FFL when displaying time or any other combination of the display characters. Now it is dead. I took it to Pontiac just as the warranty was expiring but it wouldnt do it for them and they wouldnt send it in so I got the shaft. aNY IDEAS?

    The display shows garbage about half the time. It might say8:99 or FLI . It appears the electronics selecting the segments for the display is all messed up.

    Does the LCD illuminate?




    If so, it could just be the bulb for the backlight, which you can find on Ebay for about $20 bucks, just search for "GM Radio Bulb"

SOURCE: Can't see anything on the clock/Radio Display

the radio display is lighted by a tiny bulb inside the radio, to change this u must remove the radio from the dash and take off the top sheet metal cover, under that u will see a small twist in bulb socket, replace that little bulb, the bulb is about $2 and avail at any full sevice auto parts store.

SOURCE: My digital clock/radio display is faded 2005 Pontiac Grand AM

the most common reason for this is because in side your radio there is tiny little light bulbs behind the main display that have blown..to repair this you need to remove the radio and replace the bulbs .hope this helps!

SOURCE: Reset code for a 2001 Pontiac Grand Am GT radio

unfortunately you would only have the code if you bought it new, each code is radio specific and can only be obtained by the dealer, if you have the owners manual it might have been written down by the original owner if that is not you

How to remove radio display bulb 2001 grand prix

The bulbs are not serviced seperately in those radios. You can take it to a dealer and they can exchange your radio for a refurbished unit for around $200-$250.

I have a 2000 grand prix gtp with a radio cassette...I want a radio cd player. I went to a junk yard and found a 2000 grand prix gt with a radio cd player....I bought it (the radio cd player), can i swap...

The wires will be the same. The problem is that the radio you bought may have theftlock on it. ( it would be printed on the front). If so you don't have the code for it. there is a slight chance that it will work, probably 1 in a 100. If it doesn't and the display reads LOC not LOCK, then you can take it to a dealer and they can recode it for you. Costs about 50 dollars here. Indy

My radio works but the digital image on my radio is messed up.

most likley the digital display has failed,and in most cars without a integrated audio/climate control system, its cheaper to go aftermarket than to have the radio repaired,, time to get the ipod stereo!

Raido light does not work

Is it ALL the lights in the radio or just one? If it is the digital display (station and time) then there is a small bulb that backlights the display that has burnt out. You'll have to remove the radio and take off the top cover of the radio. There is a brown plastic insert just above the display that unscrews. That is the bulb... I've seen them for sale on ebay OR you might try your local GM parts dealer. They are about $6.00 but hard to find and NOT available at Radio Shack, etc... GM ONLY...

Radio in 2001 grand prix works but the light for the clock and radio stations does not display.

The problem is the light bulb behind the screen if you pull the radio out of the dash & pull the radio apart the bulb is right behind the screen with a little work you can get it out, and you can buy it at a pontiac/gm garage. Part # 16208443. Good Luck
