Just out of curiosity, did you wire the power line for the antenna? If so, did you test to make sure you had the correct line out of the head unit (and that the line applies power when it's supposed to)? If you can't find it, try using the amp remote wire, or if that fails, the red (ignition) wire.
The only time I had reception issues was when I forgot to hook up the power line for the antenna.
Also, I'm in the process of trying to make an improved iPod/music/fm app for this radio. It's a pain in the ass to reverse engineer the api used for the head unit parts. |
Maybe that's my issue... I saw that the factory amp uses the power ant wire to turn it on so I have that blue wire for power ant from the HU wired to the blue wire for power ant on the metra wiring harness. The blue wire on the ant adapter is just hanging out. I don't have it wired up to anything since we don't have a power antenna as far as I knew? Is it using power for a built in ant amplifier or something? Would I wire it to the head unit or to the cars wiring?
