You need to pull the radio out of its mount and plug it into the back of your radio where the antenna is plugged in. Then plug your antenna into the filter.

I have an aftermarket Sony stereo and had to remove it from the dash to gain access to the antenna connection. The antenna connector is on the back of the radio. There may be a connector that must be removed from the unit or antenna cable (no tools required) to allow this to plug in to the back. Mine wasn't apparent at first but I finally figured it out. Hope this helps.

Pull out the antenna plug from the radio and put that plug into the device and the other male end of the device in the radio. Or pull the plug off the antenna if it's easy to get to. The device has to go between the radio and the antenna. The device has a male and a female on it.

Unplug your current antenna wire from the back of your car stereo, the unit you ordered will have the same plug, plug it in to your stereo, and the one you unplugged from the stereo, plugs into the noise reducer.

I had to download from site...the instructions that do come with are vague and too short. might be worth a trip to a dealership or even a fry's technician...or some other dealer in electronics that sell electronic car equipment

Greg, I have one of these on the front & I don't care a lick for it! Buy a bigger unit if you can! As far as wiring, I just made up a 2 strand wire harness & ran it along the inside edge of my deep v right down to the battery. I then split it & put a connecter for each post. It works like a charm! I'm no Guru when it comes to this kind of stuff either and I made it work. cbmgh@comcast.net if I cabn be of further assistance to you. CB

I would do some basic trouble shooting. Verify your hot wire is hot and your ground is grounded. Also your player chassis may need to be grounded behind the dashboard. Make sure the radio faceplate is seated properly. Did you push the power button or are you trying to twist the knob to turn it on. Was your old radio working?

Thats odd. I had no such issue. I would have a look on Google and see if there are any forums that show such issues with your car / model. Did you start car before plugging in? What happens then?

The code is most likely the code for your radio. Usually it's located with the owners manual. If not contact your local honda dealership in order to retrieve the code.

CAUTION, I have a 2003 Honda CR-V so as the product says it works on this car model purchased it, and when the car stereo was finally removed found no place to plug in the adapter. Now i am stuck with a device that wont work for my stereo... FRUSTRATING!!

The Radio that I have has a plug in antenna connector that seems to be like a headphone jack(8mm I think?),the radio comes with a roll up antenna that kinda works,but you could download the details/instructions off the Sony site probably?in fact there are also amplified antenna's out there,but that might amplify noise also?Check out some of the radio equipment sites for accesories,I've seen that some of these guys make their own antennas with just a copper wire streached out in the backyard with a connector soldered on,maybe Radio Shack or Universal Radio can help?I seem to get along with what came with the radio or I'm just to lazy to order and install a real antenna,haha!Good luck and happy listening,this is an awesome radio in this price group!

The power source's plugs needs to be cut and you insert the wires. Your best bet is to check youtube for videos on how to wire the whole thing up. There's a few great ones on there that break it down for you.

I returned my radio because it didn't work. Anyway, Connect your wires to the terminal block under your dash, (Consol). You should have one. Good luck.

Well............I have a little 100W inverter I put in the cig lighter. I plugged in the tranmitter setting the Freq to 103.1. I plugged my I-pod into the trasmitter. I turned on my little sony walkman to that Freq, and wahlah. Perfect reception. Started my Chev Luv thinking of Alternator noise, or some kind of engine interference, but...............worked perfect. In my setup no noise. Let me know if there is anything else I can do for you.

Greg, I heard of the problem and the attempt fix. Inside there is a tail that is the antenna that may have too much plastic covering on it that needs taken back alittle off the bare wire to expose it to let the radio wave through. Check it out and see! You've got to take the black cover off to expose the black antenna covered with black plastic and attached on one end. Pull the loose end out and cut off some off the plastic and hang it out when you put the black cover back with the arrow towards the green props. Then screw in the 4 screws back with the antenna hanging out. Good luck! Jerry

It still should work, it doesn't have anything to do with the radio. Call your local Honda dealer to get help.

Hi, I installed this unit myself and went through some hiccup, but overall it is quite an interesting experience. If you own an Nissan Altima 2011 with manual AC, you will be happy with its look. For radio signal, you need to buy another antenna adapter for Altima 2007to 20012 from Metra on Amazon. Connect the blue wire from that adapter to red wire of black connector provided with the unit. For GPS signal, you need to find allocation for it. I placed it into middle vent with face up to the dash. This location work out real we'll for me. It pick up GPS signal much quicker and get more satelites. I am so happy with it now! After that you just take time to set its features which suite you best. I would reccomend this unit for factory look of Altima and price also.

Princess 33: What should have come with you radio was a docking station which nests the radio and has outlets for the antenna, the speaker system, and the cigarette lighter power cord. It also has an FM spot for a wire that could be tied into an fm channel. I nest my radio in the receiver and connect the power cord to a cigarette lighter outlet and put the antenna up on the dash by the windshield and then there is an audio cord that you should have gotten that will plug into the back of the receiver and then into an outlet on your RAV 4 that should have an auxiliary outlet ( a simple pin plug ) nested with a usb outlet for your ipod or iphone or???? You will then have to power the radio up and go to channel one for the radio code! Write that down and then call in to Sirious and tell them you want to activate this radio with a new subscription. Once you have activated the radio, you will be able to play it in the car or take it back into the house and hook the audio to stereo speakers and wall power and play it there. skygod811

Then contact the retailer and ask for the installation manual. (It contains a step-by-step guide, with photographs, included in every kit) Perhaps it's available to download on their website. You can also call the company and ask.They are very cooperative. It's a terrific product. I have 3 units installed on 3 different vehicles. Good luck.

Who know but please don't waste your money. The quality is horrible in our '07 Odyssey. Sounds like you are speaking in a wind tunnel. You can have mine for $10. My wife refuses to use it. You have to turn the volume all they way up to hear anything and when the call ends, your radio switches back and blasts at max volume. I do not understand how there could possibly be a positive comment on this item.
