Topshelf Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 Is there any way to disconnect that antenna so that it will NOT go up when on FM? I just installed my Sirius and have absolutely no need for FM anymore. And I hate that the antenna has to go up and start up and down on shut down. I tried disconnecting some of the plugs from behind the radio while I was there. But the radio wouldn't even turn on unless everything was plugged in. Is there a wire that I can just remove from the harness? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COZ Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 there is a power lead that plugs into the antenna. Unplug it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1990LS400 Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 Have you considered putting an on/off switch in the power lead to the antenna? -- just in case you or someone riding with you wants or needs to listen to a local radio station someday. I never thought about it but it seems odd that your 02 RX has an external antenna when our 00 LS and even our 98 Camry have radio antennas imprinted on the inside surface of the rear window.

Topshelf Posted March 18, 2006 Author Share Posted March 18, 2006 Ah, so that means I need to take apart the cargo area to get to the antenna then? I was hoping for an easier way to do it, but I guess I'll just rip in to it. Thanks And no, I have no care about anybody else's needs. :) Seriously, there is a window antenna also, so I would guess that would be good enough in a pinch.
