today I installed a radio and now i cant find the damn connection for the wire. not the wire that connects to the radio but the other end of the wire.

 

dude thats sounds like a problem...im not help on this one though

 

are you referring to the wire that signals the antenna to go up?

i have the same problem. my antenna doesn't go up cause my deck doesn't have a wire to connect with the harness. my reasoning, who cares, antenna is ugly and i don't listen to radio much anyways. lol.

but i'm wondering if i could wire it up to power and make a switch for it. so i can have it go up whenever i wanted. i'll have to check the wiring for how much voltage it should be recieving.

if this is the same problem you're having, then i can check the helms manual at my work place today and get back to you by tomorrow sometime.

it probably just fell back behind the headunit when you pulled it out. try reaching back there and grab the loose wire, just be careful you don't yank something else out

 

Mine actually still went up and down with my new deck but about a month ago it got stuck up and now whenever i turn the radio on the antena motor just sounds like it's grinding and the attena just stays up... help?

 

im having that same problem with my teg too

sounds like you need an antenna. go down to the dealership and have it replaced. or maybe you'll want to do the s2k antenna conversion? but you're problem is the motor slipped off the rails i think. i see cars like that at honda all the time. manager tells us to just push down the antenna so it can go in the car wash. lol

That's hella funny haha!!! How much would the process cost "i'm being a huge cheapscate right now" cause my job sucks. -Thanks

 

Do what I did. I installed a Pioneer deck in my car and there was no power antenna lead coming out of the deck, So i used the Amp switch lead. Does the exact same thing as a power antenna lead would do.

price varies from location. call ur local acura dealership for a price quote. i'm sure you can find a cheaper deal online at one of those acura oem parts sites. the helms manual shows and tells how to replace it. i saw it yesterday.

i think u can just wire up that antenna lead wire to the power and it should work the same. the antenna lead wire is yellow/green on the stock harness. i don't know what the color is for the aftermarket plug.
