    This video was a big help!
    My 2007 Silverado Classic has not been able to get hardly any radio stations since I bought it several months ago and it had the factory radio without Bluetooth which I would use a lot. So after installing the new radio I still had no reception. The continuity test between the connection at the radio and the end of the antenna helped find the problem.
    Some time in the past someone pulled the antenna out and did not push it all the way back in when they reinstalled it.
    Cleaned the connection and pushed it ALL the way back in and now have great reception!

      @@W81Researcher The connection that caused my problem was right at the antenna base. (The rod that is on the right fender) I thought the connection was a screw in type but it turns out that it pushes in and pulls out. Because it wasn't pushed all the way in it had corroded a bit and lost connection to the radio. I cleaned it up best I could and put some dielectric grease in there and pushed it all the way in and the radio worked perfectly.

      Usually Nicolas, AM antennas are built right into the radio. FM antenna is external by wire. Now saying that, possible there is a problem with the FM circuit in the radio. Test the antenna first? What year is vehicle? Some you can’t just swap radio without having dealer “marry” it to the car. So radios have special steps you have to take before removing it from the used car or it will not work. Just FYI.

      Talking to my buddy, we are thinking possibly antenna at either end. Try loosening side that mounts to fender, moving it around a bit to scrape a better ground. See if that helps first. If not, pull the radio out and unplug & replug the antenna on that end. See if it improves. That is what we would try first. Let me know how it goes. The thought is that it is a ground issue with said antenna.

    QUESTION, PLEASE -- UNCLEMARKS DIY AUTOMOTIVE FIX IT CHANNEL -- Thanks for the video. Q U E S T I O N , P L E A S E -- One of our brand new boomboxes (QFX J22U) fell from a chair, but it was still working perfectly. However, a week later on two stations there's been annoying but almost tolerable rumbling noises (my two favorite AM stations, but no problem with the other stations, really). Our other radios: No problem. I checked inside of the problem boombox: There's a 7 inch white wire from the motherboard; the opposite end is loose. And the rod antenna I checked is not connected/soldered to any wire from the motherboard. I'm not sure if the loose end of the white wire should be soldered to the antenna (at the base) or the white wire is supposed to be loose on one end and the other end connected/soldered to the motherboard, which wouldn't make sense? I reckon the loose end of the wire should be soldered to the antenna, otherwise the antenna would be unconnected to any wiring from the motherboard, etc. The boombox is working perfectly in every other way, and the repair guys said that I should take the radio to the shop to check (that's the cost of the price of a new boombox! The repair people said, "bring it to the shop, and we'll take a look." However, or course, the repair fee would be the cost of the brand-new radio! A couple of repairers didn't answer the following question: MUST THE ROD ANTENNA OF AN AM/FM/SW RADIO DEFINITELY BE CONNECTED/SOLDERED BY MEANS OF A WIRE CONNECTING FROM THE MOTHER BOARD, OR THE ANTENNA NEED NOT BE SOLDERED TO ANYTHING INTERNALLY AND IT WOULD STILL FUNCTION OPTIMALLY)? Thanks in advance.

      I am NOT a electronics repair person, but the antenna has to be hooked up to something! Depending on how close the radio stations are to you, will also effect your reception. Computer speakers can pickup radio stations without having any tuner or source plugged in other than power, if they are within blocks of a radio stations transmitter. Lol.

    OMG. That steering wheel rim is filthy! Get a good degreaser and clean the filth and oil off of that rim.

      Thanks Tony. It was one of my very first videos. It did show how to check if the antenna is good or not. It is harder to make a good video that a person thinks, probably why you have never made one?

      @@MATMANPRO I apologize too. It is video # 20. I have learned a lot since then about presentation and camera angles and such. Some of my new videos can take 1-2 days of edits in production. Hope you stay well. If I still owned the car I would redo the video!
