No FM stations with my 1997 S90

My S90 will not pick up any FM stations. The antenna is plugged into the back of the head unit, and the antenna wire if plugged into the antenna in the trunk. Any suggestions?

Buy a cheap mast antenna for $10. Plug into your radio and test. You will know immediately if the problem is either.

Well, I swapped the radio into my other car with the same results. Somehow the FM side is gone.

Not sure, but my 850 manual says that you could set different frequencies of FM base on what country you're in. Could it be possible, I'm guessing it forgot its settings some how?
