The wiring information includes wiring diagrams, proper wire and connector repair procedures, further details on wire harness routing and retention, as well as pin-out and location views for the various wire harness connectors, splices and grounds.
- Using an ohmmeter, check for continuity between the antenna body and ground. There should be no measurable resistance. If OK, go to Step 2. If not, repair or clean ground as necessary.
- Disconnect the wire harness connector at the antenna. Check for battery voltage at pin A1. If OK, go to Step 3. If not, check circuit fuse or check for a shorted or open wire.
- With the ignition in the ON or ACC position, turn radio ON and check for battery voltage at pin A2. If OK, replace power antenna (Refer to ELECTRICAL/AUDIO/ANTENNA - REMOVAL) . If not, check for a shorted or open wire.
