Guest tony.rose Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Hi, as I remember this, your blue is for the powered arial and yellow is positive feed. My yellow I ended up connecting to the red and didn't bother with the blue , as my arial is a manual one. Hope this help, Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Savage Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 I'm pretty sure that; green with black is an Earth, Orange and black seem to be illumination which link to ignition and Blue and white is the electric antenna. Try those combos out. I'm 99% on this, but been a while. Savage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gavin1984 Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 anu ideas where ive gone wrong from here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tony.rose Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 I can see you have a yellow and green then a orange and black. I would treat the orange and black as earth then the yellow as live feed. Then try to see if you have any life in your unit i.e what works and what dosn't. For me after this I would cut all wire back to the original and start again, otherwise you end up trying to sort out too much crap!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
