How to fix a First Alert SFA1150 Clock Radio that won't turn on?
If your First Alert Clock Radio isn't responding, first ensure it's properly connected to a working AC outlet. If it's plugged in but still not powering on, try a different outlet to rule out power issues. Also, check the "AA" batteries; if they're exhausted, replace all four with fresh ones.

If you're experiencing low or no sound from your First Alert Clock Radio, first, adjust the VOLUME control to ensure it's not set to minimum. Then, make sure you've properly tuned to your desired radio station. For weak FM reception, extend and rotate the telescopic antenna. If the AM reception is poor, try relocating the entire unit. Finally, ensure the unit is not stuck in Weather Alert Mode; select AM, FM, or WB mode as desired.
