Broadcasts can be heard but both AM and FM have a lot of noise.
(1)Noise occurs when the engine is stopped.
YesJ
(2)Noise occurs when the engine in running.
Do the following measures eliminate the noise?
@ Tune to a station with a strong signal.
l Extend the antenna completely. (Whip antenna)
l Adjust the sound quality to suppress high tones.
NoIs the radio body ground mounted securely?
Yes
Securely tighten the nuts for the bodyground.
Yes
YesClean the antenna plug and ground
wire mounting area. Mount the anten-
na securely. On a vehicle with a motor
antenna, check the antenna itself. (Re-fer to E-1, 2.)

Repair or replace electricalcomponents.
Return parts or wiring to
their proper position.
Caution
1.Connecting a high tension cable to the noise
filter may destroy the noise filter and shouldnever be done.
2.Check that there is no external noise. Since
failure to do this may result in misdiagnosis
due to inability to identify the noise source,
this operation must be performed.3. Noise prevention should be performed by
suppressing strong sources of noise step
by step.
NOTE
1. Condenser
The condenser does not pass D.C. current, butas the number of waves increases when it
passes A.C. current, impedance (resistanceagainst A.C.) decreases, and current flow is
facilitated. A noise suppressing condenser
which takes advantage of this property is in-
serted between the power line for the noise
source and the ground. This suppresses noiseby grounding the noise component (A.C. or
pulse signal) to the body of the vehicle.
2. Coil
The coil passes D.C. current, but impedance
rises as the number of waves increases relativeto the A.C. current. A noise suppressing coil
which takes advantage of this property is in-
serted into the power line for the noise source,
and works by preventing the noise componentfrom flowing or radiating out of the line.

Cases where the problem
is not eliminated by a single
response to one area are
common, due to several
bodypartsbeing
imperfectly grounded.

and the radio is struck while tuned away froma station?
Yes
No*Static electricity noise:Sody static electric from the shock absorberrubber bushings used to prevent vibration, tires,etc. occurs because of separation from the
ground, causing a buzzing noise.
Since no measures can be taken on the radioside, steps should be taken to discharge the

Is the antenna correctly grounded? (If noise appears when the antennais moved, this means the ground is not securely connected.)

About multipath noise and fading noise
Because the frequency of FM waves is extreme-
ly high, it is highly susceptible to effects from
geological formations and buildings. These ef-
fects disrupt the broadcast signal and obstruct
‘reception in several ways.l Multipath noise
This describes the echo that occurs when the
broadcast signal is reflected by a large obstruc-
tion and enters the receiver with a slight time
delay relative to the direct signal (repetitious
buzzing).l Fading noise
This is a buzzing noise that occurs when the
broadcast beam is disrupted by obstructing ob-
jects and the signal strength fluctuates intricately
within a narrow range.
