i had great radio reception when i bought it then all of a sudden it went bad. so naturaly i figured it was the rust antena so i replaced it this morning. it didnt get better at all is there another conection spot besides where the antena plugs into the stereo. if so where is it and how do i get to it. please help

 

What did you plug the wire from the new antena, into?????????

 

i just screwed it back in exactly where the other one came out of

 

anybody?

 

Pass side kick panel spring loaded joint remove kick panel can't miss it pull the spring out and put it back together happened to my xj and zj

 

got any pics of what it looks like???

 

Did you replace the Arial(mast) or the compete antena? Antena would have required fishing a wire from the fender to the kick panel or radio.

 

um just the arial mast. didnt realize it was called that lol

 

Try the connection fix mentioned above, inside the passenger kick panel and make sure the antena wire is plugged in at the radio also. If that doesn;t help you will need to replace the part that the Mast screwed into or the Radio itself is the problem.

 

can you describe a little better what that all is? and what stuff looks like let my girlfriend barrow my xj and it wont be back for a couple hours

 

Just under the dash pass side remove kick panel and look for this wire this is my zj the wife has the xj but same thing

 

ok thanks a bunch i just wasnt sure which wire you were talkin about with all of them down there

 

No problem I had to pull the spring out on my zj and xj when I first got them cause neither had reception

 

man that was a pita it didnt want to stay together so i had to tape it lol

 

Did you pull the spring out if you pull it out then put it together and tape it I have had no problem with either jeep and that how I did mine
