My friends, first off, I will try to keep my childish humor to myself.
Brief history..... car hasn't been touched for 10 years until I got it 8 months ago. It's running now but hasn't touched the road yet as I've been chasing electrical issues for 4 months. I turned on the radio, hit scan, and it cycled through searching for a station and never found one. Noticed the antenna didn't raise. Took out the radio and removed the antenna, used contact cleaner on everything and reinstalled. Turned on the radio, hit scan, still never found a station and just static like sound.
This is where I have to control myself....... the antenna did extend but only raised six inches. I changed the power antenna relay. Tried again. Raised only six inches. Now, being a proud man, I like it show off what I have. I guess six inches is good for most but I want my fully extended mast to be seen by everyone. (Had to. Sorry. I'll keep the other 32 jokes to myself)
As I said, it stops at six inches. New relay. No sound as if motor still running. Retracts immediately and completely. No stations picked up but think a radio issue.
Ok, so..... I'm also going to start a topic about the radio. Appreciate any advice.
