Hello Everyone,
I have a '89 XJ Laredo. For some reason the antenna motor runs continuously...even when ignition is off!
I don't no if this is the cause but it rained a few days ago. I drove the jeep about six hours after the rain and had no problems. But the next afternoon I got into my Jeep and noticed a humming sound. As it turned out it was the antenna motor.
The wiring for my Alpine head unit goes through my glove compartment so I pulled the connnector pigtail but the antenna motor still ran. I pulled the fuse to get it to stop.
I don't remember if the antenna goes through connector pigtail or directly to the head unit. But most of the wires are labeled and "antenna" is not one of them.
Any ideas? How the heck do I get to the antenna anyway?
Best,
John V.
