I wouldn't. The OP described the problem as having two distinct

sound fading out and a static sound. If it were just static, a lot of

to
bad grounds or other connection problems. I'd be sending the CD player
out
for repair or replacing it. They are available on E-bay for pretty cheap.
Junk yards are another option. Fading is most likely a heat related
problem
and I'm not sure it's worth repairing one from a cost perspective, when
you
can get replacements at reasonable prices.

Yeah. good luck finding one around here at anyof the yards, I wont pay over
100 for another one, cause I just went out and bought a perfectly good JVC
cd player at walmart for 89 with detachable face, sounds good too with stock
speakers.

You're right that you can buy a great deck for $100, but if you want the OEM
equipment (as it appears the OP does), then that's not an option. E-bay is.

No this unit is all in one, with equalizer, I perosonally dont like the EQ
so it was going anyways, just if I put it back in to sell later than I would
want it to work.

Well my delco does what you describe. Does it on radio and tape. Its a
loose speaker wire. When they short out, the circuit protection kicks
in and turns off the speaker. It comes back some time after the short
has gone. Older stereos would just burn out. So Delco is not all bad.

But since its all one unit, and the radio is fine, I wouldnt look for
any external connection problems.

ebay is NOT an option for me to buy used equipment from, I just bought from
two companies and one of them its been almost a week and half and still
havent shipped the item, and the other its been four days and havent heard
from them either yet. So I really dont like ebay, I have all my stuff set
up and verified, I have a sellers account also, which I do use, because my
stuff gets shipped same day within 4 hours of purchase...I just dont like
buying from ebay.
