Rear glass aerial Help!!

Yanbanshee · 1st November 2007, 19:56

I have lost the connection to my rear window aerial due to work around the rear seat etc. I need desperately to know how to refit the wires in the correct manner to the glass (both terminals have been lost) and the two screened cables to the amplifier. My car has the highline video and sat nav installation. Im refering to the right hand side rear pillar where the video/radio aerial amplifier is fitted. A drawing of the screen or schematic showing which terminal is which and which wire from the amplifier would be great.
Anyone done this or know? I'm desperate and the manual leaves off at the actual screen bit.

to the Club Brain!

I'm not fully up to speed on all the different connections - especially for the HighLine setup but there are many a knowledgeable folk on here who I'm sure will have the answers. Stick around and I'm sure they'll post on here soon enough.

While your waiting, take a good look around - plenty to do and see!

Haynes describes the RH unit as the "aerial filter" and says the amplifier is at the left-hand side. Not sure if this is quite right - these may be two types of amplifier - the RH one with 3 connectors may be the "diversity" amplifier deleted from later cars but wired to two elements.
Anyway, this post has some pics that might be helpful:

Thanks Moonstone, I have all the difficulties your Correspondent lists however my main problem is with the Video ariel amplifier. My car doesnt have the diversity amplifier but has on the right hand side a video amplifier and filter connected to the screen ariel. On the left it has the non diversity audio amplifier.. After many struggles I have established the connections (mine has two coax leads)but still no go. I have plugged in a cheap ariel amplifyer and the TV works ok I just need to resolve the issues re the amplifier and filter HELP HELP someone please! Is there a diffinitive expert re the audio/video systems wnywhere?

Just for Clarification,
Are we talking Tourer with sat Nav TV Installed?

If there are, you'll find them in the I.C.E. forum on this site. A search on specific terms may produce what you need.

I have moved this to the I.C.E Forum so people with knowledge in that area may see it.
