Radio and some other issues

So, my stock radio in my 1990 S5 is pretty much dead. If I hit the power button, the antenna goes up, and every once and a while I hear some noise from the radio come through, but for the most part it is dead, no lights on the screens. Is it worth trying to send out to try to get fixed? I saw an old post where someone mentioned factoryradioservices.com, but I don't know if they are legit or not. One other quick thing, My clock by the idiot lights doesn't work either. Could that be a fuse issue, or is it probably just dead?

many thanks!
Erik

Re: the radio. On mine (1985) it was the internal radio fuse that was blown. See bottom right corner of pic below. It's the stock Panasonic.
There should also be a 20A Audio fuse on the main panel. I'd start there.

Also, here's a useful video:
