Audio
General Description
The audio circuit is designed for the current to flow
through the receiver circuit when the radio switch is
turned on with the starter switch in“ACC” or “ON”.
Current runs through the memory circuit of the audio
regardless of the position of the starter switch.
The radio antenna operates in connection to the radio
switch. The antenna rod goes up when the switch is
ON and goes down to be stored in the fender with the
switch OFF. The antenna rod also goes down when
the starter switch is turned off with radio on.
