Did I forget something

Hello everyone,

So I sent my faceplate out to Becker Audio to have the LCD repaired on my 1432....Becker did a great job!!!! Here is my question, I was so excited to get the radio back into the car, I thought I plugged everything in but now my antenna does not go up when I turn on the radio. I thought that the antenna automatically goes up when the radio turns on. Did I pull a rookie move and forget a connection? Or does the Antenna go up as the radio needs the signal.

Thanks,
Mario
 
Likely yes. Pull the radio & double check your connections & look for unconnected wire(s).

I figured that...didnt mean to post a dumb thread but I thought maybe the antenna goes up as the radio needs a better signal
 
A lot of times folks forget to connect the single wire to the blade connector on the back of the radio, so that may be it.
