Have you checked into the antenna? Sometimes the strong AM stations will come 
in even without an antenna. Are you in Phoenix?

If you have an actual radio problem, finding a replacement isn't that hard at 
one of the Phoenix u-pull-it yards. I'm going this weekend at some point. (It 
was a fairly common CC design)

The pigtail connector is to allow the use of the factory cassette 
player/recorder. Don't remove the jumper from the end of this connection or the 
radio won't work at all.  

Whatever you do, please don't butcher-up the dash! You can mount a simple 
two-knob without destroying anything, Auto-Zone sells ($79.00) a decent 
AM/FM/CASS unit that I have in my Duster. It's about the least-ugly modern 
radio you'll find.
