Antenna
All vehicles utilize a fixed-mast antenna, located at the RF fender, for AM/FM reception.If the vehicle is equipped with satellite audio, the satellite radio antenna is located on the roof panel.
AM/FM Antenna Cable
The front AM/FM antenna cable is connected to the ACM and has an in-line connector (located behind the RH kick-panel) to the antenna cable. The rear AM/FM antenna cable runs along the roof of the vehicle to the antenna.
While the front AM/FM antenna cable can be serviced, the rear AM/FM antenna cable is part of the wiring harness and not serviceable. If the rear antenna cable needs to be replaced, cut the ends and leave the cable in the wiring harness. Route the new cable on top of the wiring harness and secure it with wire ties. Do not cut into the wiring harness to remove the existing antenna cable.
