Hello! This is my first post & request from the audio experts regulars
here in this ng.

I read that this unit from a 91 Toyota Camry (Toyota A16403 Car Stereo)
was "recalled for safety reason" but i can not find what is wrong with
the unit.

My A16403 stereo radio/cassette unit has not worked since i bought the
car 2 years ago & the pervious owners said it was broken for a long time
before hand.

So since i'm not the original car owner, i doubt i can take it to a
Toyota dealership for repair. Plus, i think, the recall, has long been
competed by the manufacture..
So...
Can you tell me what parts are defective on this unit?
Or can you tell me where i can buy a cheap working used unit that will
fit in a 91 Toyota Camry LX?

Any info would be welcomed.

if i remember rightly. theres nothing special about the wiring in this car.
and nothing different about the radio size. (correct me if i'm wrong) so any
radio cassette or cd player would fit ok and can be bought from just about
anywhere.
If i am mistaken and its a 2DIN or 1.5DIN sized radio you can get "adaptors"
which are bascially a bit of plastic to convert the radio size.

Throw it away and replace it ! It's 13 yrs old for heavens sake ! That kind
of stuff isn't made for servicing.
