Radio wont tune in stations

[goodbuzzman1]

So, as stated above, my symphony II has never managed to pick up a radio station. i tried a different antenna and it made no difference. i also used my meter to check for continuity from the antenna cable stereo side to the antenna side and there is continuity.

Am i missing something?

If you undo the rear interior light there is a connection inside of that which leads to the aerial on the car, just make sure its all connected and secured properly.

yeah ive done that. everything is ok. I there something inbetween the antenna and head unit that might be faulty? an amp or something?

I do know that if you replace the headunit with an aftermarket one you need an aerial booster, so there could be some sort of amplifier thats faulty on yours.

Mine has an Alpine unit fitted with a booster...
