antenna retractor motor and wiring S70 1988

posted by  someone claiming to be Sulloway on  Sun Jun 19 16:03 CST 2011 [RELATED]

Hi Guys. Seems like I went through this a couple of years ago on my 749T. I got my CD Deck back and installed it. After I was all done, I discovered my antenna had not retracted.

Because the 2 wires going to the retractor motor were all wrapped around stuff in the trunk I elected to cut the Green wire with the red stripe and put a connector in it. When I turned it on the antenna went up and stayed up.

I have not checked the fuse in the other line.

Anybody got a quick cure that doesn't require removing all trunk fuzzy Panels?

thanks for your help!

You cut the power wire to the antenna to drive your CD? Silly. Just run a wire from the CD to the forward fuse box and put it into a switched fuse.
