DESCRIPTION
For operation of the factory installed standard and
optional radios and the optional compact disc player,
refer to the Sound Systems Operating Instructions
Manual supplied with the vehicle. All vehicles are equipped with an Ignition-Off
Draw Connector which, is used when the vehicles are
originally shipped from the factory. This connector
which, is located near the battery, helps to prevent
battery discharge during storage. For specific connec-
tor type and location, refer to Group 8W, Wiring Di-
agrams. This connector is included in the radio memory cir-
cuitry and should be checked if the memory of time
or radio station programming is inoperative.
INTERFERENCE ELIMINATION
Some components are used on vehicles equipped
with a radio capacitor, to suppress radio frequency
interference/static. Capacitors are mounted in various locations, on the
generator either internal or external, internal to the
instrument cluster, and internal to the windshield
wiper motor. Ground straps are mounted from radio chassis to
instrument panel support structure, engine to cowl,
across engine mount on right hand side. On vehicles
with air conditioning there is a strap from evapora-
tor valve to cowl. These ground straps should be se-
curely tightened to assure good metal to metal
contact. Ground straps conduct very small high fre-
quency electrical signals to ground and require clean
large surface area contact. Radio resistance type spark plug cables in the high
tension circuit of the ignition system complete the in-
terference suppression (Fig. 1).
If radio noises are evident, be sure the capacitor
lead wires are making good contact on their respec-
tive terminals and are securely mounted. Faulty or
deteriorated spark plug wires should be replaced.
AUDIO DIAGNOSTIC TEST PROCEDURES
Whenever a audio malfunction occurs, first verify
that the radio wire harness is properly connected to
all connectors before starting normal diagnosis and
repair procedures. Refer to Audio Diagnostic Charts
and/or Radio Connector Circuit Chart (Fig. 2).

MANUAL ANTENNAS
TESTING
Antenna performance may be tested by substitut-
ing a known good antenna. It is also possible to
check short or open circuits with an ohmmeter or
continuity light once the antenna cable is discon-
nected from the radio as follows: (1) Continuity should be present between the an-
tenna mast and radio end pin of antenna cable plug
(Fig. 8 and 9).
(2) No continuity should be observed or a very
high resistance of several megohms between the
ground shell of the connector and radio end pin. (3) Continuity should be observed between the
ground shell of the connector and the mounting hard-
ware on the vehicle fender.
REMOVAL
AA, AC and AY bodies have a short cable that
plugs into the panel harness cable. To remove antenna, the radio must be removed
first. See radio removal. Except AA and AC bodies. (1) Unplug antenna lead from radio receiver. (2) Remove antenna mast by unscrewing mast
from antenna body (Fig. 10).
(3) Remove cap nut with Antenna Nut Wrench
C-4816 (Fig. 11). (4) Remove antenna adapter and gasket (Fig. 12).
(5) Unfasten three push pins from the rear of the
plastic inner fender shield and bend the shield away
to gain access to the antenna body. (6) From under fender remove antenna lead and
body assembly (Fig. 12).

INSTALLATION
(1) Install antenna body and cable from under-
neath fender (Fig. 12). (2) Install gasket, adapter, and cap nut. Tighten
cap nut to 14 N Im (125 in. lbs.) with Antenna Nut
Wrench C-4816. (3) Install antenna mast into antenna body until
sleeve bottoms on antenna body (Fig. 11). (4) Route cable to radio if necessary.
BENCH TEST FOR ANTENNA MALFUNCTION
It is also possible to check short or open circuits
with an ohmmeter or continuity light once the an-
tenna has been removed from the vehicle. (1) Continuity should be present between the tip of
the mast and radio end pin (Fig. 13 and 14).
(2) No continuity should be observed or a very high
resistance of several megohms between the ground
shell of the connector and radio end pin.
(3) Continuity should be observed between the ground
shell of the connector and the mounting hardware.
Wiggle cable over its entire length to reveal inter-
mittent short or open circuits during step 1, 2 and 3.
POWER ANTENNA
OPERATION
The power operated radio antenna (Fig. 15) is a
telescoping type antenna, extended and retracted by a
reversible electric motor. The Automatic Power Antenna is controlled by a
combination of an external relay and limit switches
built into the antenna motor housing. The antenna is
actuated when radio is switched ON and the ignition
switch in ON or ACCESSORY position. The antenna
mast should extend. When the ignition switch or radio
is turned OFF the antenna mast should fully retract
and declutch.
Many antenna problems may be avoided by frequent
cleaning of the antenna mast telescoping sections. Clean
the antenna mast sections with a clean soft cloth.
Before an antenna is removed, the antenna perfor-
mance should be tested to decide if it is a reception
problem or an operational problem. Whenever an operational malfunction occurs, first
verify that the radio antenna wire harness is properly
connected. Check all connectors before starting normal
diagnosis and repair procedures. Refer to Power An-
tenna Electrical Diagnosis Chart (Fig. 16).

(8) Upon establishing that the fault is in the an-
tenna assembly, it may be traced to one or more of
the following conditions: (a) Broken lead-in wire or shielding.
(b) Grounded lead-in wire or mast assembly.
(c) Moisture in support tube or lead-in assembly.
(d) Poor connection at antenna lead-in assembly
or shielding ground.
REMOVAL

(4) Disconnect lead-in cable by twisting at connec-
tor (Fig. 17).
(5) Remove one screw attaching antenna to an-
tenna brace (Fig. 18). (6) Remove cap nut on fender surface with An-
tenna Nut Wench C-4816 (Fig. 11). (7) Remove antenna from under fender.

POWER ANTENNA MAST
REMOVAL
(1) Remove cap nut using Antenna Nut Wrench
C-4816. (2) Install temporary nut provided with the re-
placement mast. (3) Turn ignition key to ACCESSORY position and
turn on radio. (4) While the mast is moving up pull upward to re-
move mast and drive rod from the mast tube.
INSTALLATION
(1) Insert new drive rod into mast tube with drive
teeth toward antenna motor (Fig. 19).
(2) Turn off radio and guide mast into tube. The
mast may not be fully lowered when first installed. (3) Replace the temporary nut with the original
cap nut and tighten to 14 N Im (125 in. lbs.) torque
using Antenna Nut Wench C-4816. (4) Turn radio on and off to extend and retract an-
tenna. Mast should be fully lowered after recycling.
