Dudes:
I've connected my stereo power and ground wires to the fuse block as suggested on an earlier thread and I have power to the stereo when the key is turned... cool! (thanks guys!!) However, the power antenna (stock), will not rise. I can trace 2 blue wires with red and white (?) tracers from the antenna that are just hanging under the dash. There is also a wire coming from the stereo labeled "automatic antenna" hanging there. Can you guys tell me where these 3 wires are supposed to connect to in order for the antenna to rise when I turn on the stereo? Also, I lose the time and station presets on the stereo when I turn the key off, but not if I turn the stereo off with the knob. What's up with that? Did I connect this right? Any help is greatly appreciated!! Thanks! Andy... |

I don't know about the antenna (what brand?), but I suspect one wire would hook to the stereo, the other two would be a power source (12v and ground).
The stereo has two power connections: one that goes to constant, always on, never turns off, ever 12v (usually red wire?) and one goes to switched key-on-its-on/key-off-its-off 12v (usually yellow wire?). Check your connections. |

the white wire is signel from the radio to power up or down when the radio is turn off and on. I'm not sure how the others work.
