Installed Kenwood aftermarket HU, and now FM radio reception is bad.
After numerous google searches with various search terms, I cannot find any solutions, although a number of people with the same problem after their aftermarket HU install on their KK, just like myself.
Others, like myself, found the factory harness has a wire labeled as antenna amplifier, but nothing more explaining it, such as if you need to apply 12v to it, etc.
So, has anybody else experienced poor FM radio reception after their aftermarket HU install? If so, were you able to solve the problem?
Also, can anybody explain anything about that antenna amplifier wire? Is it only for the satellite side of the stubby roof antenna? Is it for the am/fm side of the antenna? Does it only "work" with the factory radio?
PLEASE HELP!
