HINT:
w Check the wire harness between the radio receiver
assembly and the CD auto changer in accordance with
the wiring diagrams in BE±201, 203.
w Since the signals to and from the CDL+, CDL, CDR+,
CDR, TXM+, TXM, TXS+ and TXS terminals are serial
signals, they cannot ordinarily be measured with a
tester.

MOTOR ANTENNA
MOTOR ANTENNA REMOVAL AND
INSTALLATION
1. REMOVE MOTOR ANTENNA
(a) Remove the antenna nut.
(b) Remove the LH side cover.
(c) Disconnect the motor antenna connector and the antennacord.
(d) Remove the nut and the motor antenna assembly.
2. INSTALL MOTOR ANTENNA
(a) Install the antenna nut.
(b) Connect the motor antenna connector and the antenna cord.
(c) Install the nut.
ANTENNA ROD REMOVAL AND
INSTALLATION
1. REMOVE ANTENNA ROD HINT: Perform this operation with the battery negative (±)
cable connected to the battery terminal.
(a) Turn the ignition switch to ºLOCKº position.
(b) Remove the antenna nut.
(c±1) with CD player
Press the ºAMº and ºCDº buttons on the radio receiver, and
simultaneously turn the ignition switch to ºACCº position.
(c±2) without CD player Press the ºAMº and ºT APEº buttons on the radio receiver, and
simultaneously turn the ignition switch to ºACCº position.
HINT:
w The rod will extend fully and be released from the motor
antenna.
w After removing the antenna rod, leave the ignition switch
at ºACCº.
NOTICE: To prevent body damage when the antenna rod is re-
leased, hold the rod while it comes out.

2. INSTALL ANTENNA ROD
(a) Insert the cable of the rod until it reaches the bottom.HINT:
wWhen inserting the cable, the teeth on the cable must
face toward the rear of the vehicle.
w Insert the cable approx. 400 mm (15.75 in.).
(b) Wind the cable to retract the rod by turning the ignition switch
to ºLOCKº position.
HINT:
w If the ignition switch is already in ºLOCKº position,
perform step 1.
w In case the cable is not wound, twist it as shown in the
illustration.
w Even if the rod has not retracted fully, install the ant enna
nut and inspect the antenna rod operation. It will finally
retract fully.
(c) Inspect the antenna rod operation by pushing the radio wave
band select buttons.
MOTOR ANTENNA INSPECTION
1. INSPECT MOTOR ANTENNA (Circuit)
Disconnect the motor antenna connector from the body wire
harness and inspect the connector on body wire harness side
as shown.

31NoiseNOISE PRODUCED WHEN ENGINE STARTS
Whistling noise which becomes high±pitched when
accelerator strongly depressed, disappears shortly
after engine stops.Whining noise occurs when A/C is operating.
Scratching noise occurs during sudden accel-
eration, driving on rough roads or when ignition
switch is turned on.
Clicking sound heard when horn button is
pressed, then released. Whirring/grating sound
when pushed continuously.
Murmuring sound, stops when engine stops. Tick±tock noise, occurs in coordination with
blinking of flasher.
Noise occurs during window washer operation.Scratching noise occurs while engine is running,
continues a while even after engine stops.Scraping noise in time with wiper beat.
Other type of noise. Alternator noise.
A/C noise.
Fuel gauge noise.
Horn noise.
Ignition noise. Turn signal flasher noise.
Washer noise. Water temp. gauge noise.
