What kind of stereo system do I need for 2001 Sebring?

I need a replacement stereo system for my 2001 Sebring convertible. We want to install ourselves but can’t find a unit without going through dealer. Components are am& fm stereo radio with graphic equalizer, 4-cd changer with cassette player. Manual says sales code, RBK whatever that means! Can anyone help or have an idea?

Is there a problem with my Chrysler Sebring radio?

If you had the radio replaced with another factory radio, your problem could still reside in your radio. Here is the problem…plain and simple. When your radio was manufactured, the manufacturer used a solder that was not up to par. This problem is known as cold soldering.

What kind of CD player does Sebring limited have?

My 2006 Sebring Limited has a 1-CD player and a 6-CD player. I was thinking that I might be able to keep 7 CDs in the two players. However, it seems that I can’t play the CD in the 1-CD player because the system controls bypass it and default to the 6-CD player.

Where are the fuses on a Chrysler Sebring?

You have to pop off plastic covers (fuse panel on driver side maybe) to get to the screws. Once that is done, the plastic piece can be worked out firmly, but carefully. The main dash has catches up near the windshield/firewall and you will lift up on the front side of that plastic piece and then gently pull toward you.

Why is my Chrysler Sebring audio system not working?

When your radio was manufactured, the manufacturer used a solder that was not up to par. This problem is known as cold soldering. The solder connects the components to the motherboard of the radio and when the space around the radio is cold, the solder contracts…like a rubberband with no tension.

Are there any problems with the Sebring audio system?

We have had problems with our 2002 Sebring radio and 4 CD changer and will be replacing it with an aftermarket unit. Any local car stereo shop can sell and install a unit for you. Cruchfield.com is also a good source for after market stereo/cd players. You will not be able to buy a unit which will control your 4 CD changer.
