you need to connect the blue 12v output wire from the stereo to the white wire on the cars loom.

the white wire is the aerial amplifier power wire. once connected to the blue 12v feed on the stereo it will power the aerial amp and you will get a signal.

Is it the wire on spare plug? Once you have taken out original Radio?

the blue wire is on the back of your new stereo its the one to power amps etc.

the white one will be on your cars loom. i.e on the car side of the iso connector.

connect the two together and all will work
