1999 Sable, factory radio worked, but would make a loud popping sound and then change channels. Now the radio display and radio are not working at all. All of the fuses under the dash tested as good. I also tried a different radio and a different amp and cannot get the radio to come on.

The radio it self will be faulty, it will have to be removed and repaired.
