AmitUk 0 Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 I have just fitted a new HU to my mk3 and the radio reception is terrible.If I manually tune to radio 1, I just about get signal but certainly no auto seek.I tried fitting one of thesehttp://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150390348241#ht_2483wt_940but 0 improvement.Any ideas?

shail 0 Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 Did your last HU have the same issues?I fitted one of those amplifiers and it sorted out my reception problems. The amplifer you linked to needs a power feed from the loom - is this power feed connected & providing a voltage? Link to post Share on other sites

tjsmudger 2 Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 Have you connected the ariel?? Link to post Share on other sites
Lukey. 381 Posted April 13, 2010 Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 the blue cable in the radio loom is exactly for this purpose, antenna power feed/remote turn on when the radio is switched on, i have an inch high shark style aerial and with the amplifier connected it gets good reception too Link to post Share on other sites
AmitUk 0 Posted April 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 Yeah ariel is wired in to HU, as is the blue wire connected to the blue wire from the stereo and measured on a meter.Dont know about the old stereo. Died before I got a chance to really listen to the radio. Link to post Share on other sites
