Default radio wont turn ON

Hope someone can help. I bought a '01 RX300 with nav. It only shows "radio off". Will not turn on. A friend suggested the tuner (under rear seat?), but how do you check the fault? Thanks

Welcome to Club Lexus!

The tuner is in the dash. It is the amplifier that is in the rear. The first thing to check are the fuses. Do you have an owner's manual? If not, you can call Lexus and get one for free. I believe you can do it on-line also.

Thank you for the response! Yes, I checked all the fuses (under hood and inside). But I know more than before -- tuner in the dash, amp under rear seat. The display just says, "Radio Off". Pushing the volumn **** has no effect. Thanks
