Antenna Connector Cable

Antenna Connector Cable

Example:

Faulty antenna cable from radio to antenna





The following are required for repair purposes:

1. Adapter wire for connection to radio; length approx. 30 cm

2. Connecting wire; available in various lengths

3. Adapter wire for connection to antenna; length approx. 30 cm

- Disconnect electrical connections of faulty antenna cable from devices.

- Determine routing of faulty antenna cable in vehicle and measure out overall length of antenna connection to be replaced in vehicle.

Total length of antenna connection = length of adapter leads - 1 - and - 3 - required as well as connecting wire - 2 -.

- Subtract 60 cm from total length of antenna connection measured to calculate required length of connecting wire needed.

- Procure the necessary adapter leads and connecting wire in the calculated length as genuine replacement parts.

- Cut connectors off faulty antenna cable.

• Leave remains of faulty antenna cable in vehicle.

- Connect adapter leads to units in vehicle.

- Fit connectors with a piece of foam sheathing to prevent rattling noise.

- Lay and secure connecting wire parallel to old antenna cable.

CAUTION!
Antenna cable must not be kinked or bent excessively during installation. Do not attempt to bend antenna cable in a radius smaller than 50mm.

- Attach connecting wire to adapter leads.

- To prevent rattling noise, apply a suitable piece of foam sheathing to antenna connectors.

- Check operation.
