  3. CHECK RADIO ANTENNA


    1. Preparation for check


      1. Remove the roof antenna pole sub-assembly from the roof antenna assembly.

    2. Check for noise


      1. Turn the power switch on (ACC) with the radio receiver assembly connector connected.

      2. Turn the radio on and tune into AM mode.

      3. Place a screwdriver, thin wire, or other metal object on the amplifier antenna threaded installation portion for the roof antenna pole sub-assembly and check that noise can be heard from the speakers.

  4. CHECK RADIO RECEIVER ASSEMBLY


    1. A003Z9B

      Preparation for check


      1. Remove the antenna connector from the radio receiver assembly.

    2. Check for noise


      1. Turn the power switch on (ACC) with the radio receiver assembly connector connected.

      2. Turn the radio on and tune into AM mode.

      3. Place a screwdriver, thin wire or other metal object on the radio receiver assembly antenna jack and check that noise can be heard from the speakers.

        OK
        Noise can be heard from the speakers.

    NG
    OK
  5. CHECK WINDOW GLASS ANTENNA WIRE


    1. A003V70E01

      Check for continuity of the antenna.

      Tech Tips

      Check for continuity at the center of each antenna wire as shown in the illustration.

      Note

      When cleaning the glass, wipe it in the direction of the wire with a soft dry cloth. Take care not to damage the wire. Do not use detergents or glass cleaners with abrasive ingredients. When measuring resistance, wrap a piece of tin foil around the tip of each probe and press the foil against the wire with your finger, as shown in the illustration.

      OK
      There is continuity in the antenna.

    NG
    OK
