Dam thing
Guys Help !!
Yonks ago i took out my standard subaru cd player double din unit. I fitted a new head unit and all went in well. i have found that my radio reception is utter dire since the change over. :wonder: What i do know is The antenna connection is connected , i know this as i removed the stereo a few times just to convince my self. As i don't have a visible antenna i think that the antenna is built into my rear window just above the heating elements in the back glass. i want to try and check out the coax connection from the front to the back for continuity. what side does the coax cable run down and will i need to remove the head cloth to find the connections. Any help will be great , as sometimes my ideas can go pete tong !! Regards in advance Chris. |
Oh guys your my only hope without me wrecking stuff and exploring head lining.
who knows anything about the radio antenna in a newage . where is it ... where does the coax go ?? anyone replaced a rear window they would have come across this... |
dont think it is ur ariel mate i have the exact same problem, think it needs a signal booster
|
Yes, think it as single booster.Don't treat as your Ariel.

Not - Ariel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
But - Aerial - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia :) Anyway, enough grammar etc.... Likely the original HU had a signal booster built in to it or the loom fed power to a booster. Starting looking @ aftermarket boosters. Try to find the smallest that will do the job as it's another black box to squirrel away amongst the jungle behind the dash. J. |
There's a booster powered by the HU, when I changed mine out, the adapter cable was already wired correctly. Check in the ICE section, vaguely remember something about a blue wire:wonder: Think it's in the double din fitting thread/sticky.

Chunky Dunky one day you will rule the world m8 , well almost !!
Connected the 2 blue's on the remote this also was a switching wire for the antenna booster/amplifier. All is well and normality is restored. and Radio 1 works again !! Thanks fellas pat yourself's on the back and seen as it's friday have a good weekend. Regards Chris |
