Hi:
When you turn the radio on, do you get static through the speakers or nothing at all? As far as the antenna wire, it goes from the radio toward the passanger side (Under the dash). It exits the interior and runs to the front right inner fender where it attaches to the antenna.

Also, on most of these radios there is a ground wire on the back of the radio. Make sure it's tight.

Hi:
I suggest removing the radio and checking both the antenna wire and the ground. They are easy to fix.

Let me know what you find.
