Hi

The radio died on me a couple of weeks ago and whilst I can get radio 2 (stationary) the scanner doesn't function and I loose the signal in anything but open countryside. I have removed the tailgate trim and located the aerial "amp" (A 164 820 16 89). I can see the local transmitter from the house, so we get a strong signal locally.

Three wires, 2 to the heated screen and a 3rd single pink (or red). Should there be 12v on this last cable, I am getting (0.4v). I ask as when the cable is detached I appear to be grounding the radio signal by touching the pin?

Cheers, Ian
