My radio worked fine before I took my car in to be serviced, but now it won't work at all. What's wrong?

Your car probably has an anti-theft radio. Anti-theft items have protection circuits that may lock out if the car's battery is disconnected. (If the battery died or was replaced, you'd have the same problem.)

To fix the problem, use your security code to reprogram the radio. This should be in your owner's manual. If you need help, contact your car dealer, or the radio manufacturer.
