This GMRS radio looked completely dead.
The screen was lit… but showing nothing. No text. No frequency. No life.
Most people would call it bricked.
In this video, I walk through how I diagnosed the problem, what actually failed inside the radio, and how I repaired the display so this Retevis RA87 GMRS mobile is fully working again and ready for a new owner.
This is the same QA and repair process I use on every radio before it ever goes up for sale.
If it doesn’t pass, it doesn’t ship. Simple as that.
If you’re into:
• GMRS radios
• Real repairs (not just unboxings)
• What “tested and verified” actually means
• Or how to avoid buying mystery radios online
…this one’s for you.
