Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The lights went out on the radio display for my explorer. the unit still played however you couldn't see what track, the volume, or what radio station it was currently on. i thought this would be a simple fuse fix but was told that the whole radio had to be replaced for a cost of $600. lucky me i have the premium stereo so it costs more. i have spoken with people who all have the 98 explorer sport and this issue was the same for every single person. *ak
