Normal Operation
The antenna receives AM and FM radio waves. The antenna is a conductive wire concealed on the inside of the rear quarter window glass. Radio waves are sent to the audio unit through the antenna lead-in cable.

The radio suppression equipment reduces interference transmitted through the radio speakers by the engine ignition and electrical systems. When installing any new radio suppression equipment components, make sure that a good contact is made at all connections. Remove any paint or dirt from between a component and its ground. Tighten all connectors and screws securely according to the torque specifications. Refer to the specification chart.

Possible Causes
- central junction box (CJB) fuse 6 (5A)
- antenna
- antenna cable(s)
- antenna module
- radio frequency interference suppression equipment
- audio unit
