2. If you have problems receiving radio signals, check for conductivity in the antenna connecting wiring.
3. Wrap the ohmmeter probes in aluminum foil and probe the antenna's receiving array threads with it. One probe is pressed against one of the antenna terminals, and the other is moved along the array threads until a break point is detected.
4. If a break is detected, the grid is restored in a manner similar to that described in Section Checking the correct operation and repairing the rear window heater for repair of the conductive grille of the rear window heating.
5. If the receiving grid is OK, check the condition of the electromagnetic coil of the antenna amplifier. Disconnect the two wiring harnesses from the amplifier assembly. On the coil side of the 1-pin connector, check for continuity between the single terminal and ground. If there is continuity, replace the coil.
Note: To make it easier to disconnect the connectors, release the two lid fastening latches on the bottom of the amplifier. Read the ohmmeter readings only a few seconds after connecting it. At first, the device may register conductivity, which may drop to zero after 20 seconds. This test also checks the conductivity of the coil.
6. Check for continuity between the two terminals of the 2-pin connector on the opposite side of the amplifier assembly. If there is continuity, replace the coil (see Note to paragraph 5).
7. To replace the coil, remove the rear shelf (see Chapter Body) and remove the two mounting screws.
