Hi everyone. I read the howto on the antenna switch, and went "SWEET!".
I've put a switch between the wires (pink/blue) and (black/red), and it works fine... at raising the antenna. The only problem is... simply disconnecting those two wires doesn't lower the antenna. How does the antenna system work? The only way for me to lower it at the moment is by turning off the tape deck.. which kind of defeats the whole purpose soo... Which wires power the antenna down? Is there actually a way to wire a switch to make the antenna go up and DOWN, or was the writer of the how-to just full of ****? (I'm a little pissed because I dont want to have cut my factory wires for nothing.) Please help!  Arg.. Now the reception is non existant. Is the pink/blue wire the antenna-receceiving line? I wired the pink/blue back together, but the reception is still completely gone. Any thoughts? This post has been edited by kamixZR: Mar 10, 2003 - 6:22 AM |

Yea AudioFreak is right.
This is what you should look for to make sure your antenna will recieve a signal. If this is dangeling then you found your problem.
