ANTENNA BODY & CABLE
DESCRIPTION
All models use a fixed-length stainless steel rod-
type antenna mast, installed at the right front fender
of the vehicle. The antenna mast is connected to the
center wire of the coaxial antenna cable, and is not
grounded to any part of the vehicle.
OPERATION
To minimize static, the antenna base must have a
good ground. The coaxial antenna cable shield (the
outer wire mesh of the cable) is grounded to the
antenna base and the radio chassis.
The antenna coaxial cable has an additional dis-
connect, located near the right end of the instrument
panel. This additional disconnect allows the instru-
ment panel assembly to be removed and installed
without removing the radio.
The factory-installed Electronically Tuned Radios
(ETRs) automatically compensate for radio antenna
trim. Therefore, no antenna trimmer adjustment is
required or possible when replacing the receiver or
the antenna.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
WARNING:
ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AIRBAGS, REFER
TO ELECTRICAL, RESTRAINTS BEFORE ATTEMPT-ING ANY STEERING WHEEL, STEERING COLUMN,
OR INSTRUMENT PANEL COMPONENT DIAGNOSIS
OR SERVICE. FAILURE TO TAKE THE PROPER
PRECAUTIONS COULD RESULT IN ACCIDENTAL
AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL
INJURY.
The ohmmeter test lead connections for each test
are shown in (Fig. 1).
Fig. 1 Antenna Test Points
RSAUDIO8A-3
AUDIO (Continued)

TEST 1
Test 1 determines of the antenna mast is insulated
from the base. Proceed as follows:
(1) Unplug the antenna coaxial cable from the
radio chassis and isolate. Remove the antenna mast.
(2) Connect an ohmmeter test lead to the inside
center of the antenna base. Connect the other test
lead to a metallic portion on the outside of the
antenna base. Check for continuity.
(3) There should be no continuity. If continuity is
found, replace the faulty or damaged antenna base
and cable assembly.
TEST 2
Test 2 checks the antenna for an open circuit as
follows:
(1) Unplug the antenna coaxial cable connector
from the radio chassis. Remove the antenna mast.
The painted mast prevents measurement directly
through the mast.
(2) Connect an ohmmeter test lead to the inside
center of the antenna base. Connect the other test
lead to the center pin of the antenna coaxial cable
connector.
(3) Continuity should exist (the ohmmeter should
only register a fraction of an ohm). High or infinite
resistance indicates damage to the base and cable
assembly. Replace the faulty base and cable if
required.
TEST 3
Test 3 checks the condition of the ground between
the antenna base and the vehicle body as follows:
(1) Connect one ohmmeter test lead to the fender
on an exposed metal area (paint and e-coat must be
penetrated to obtain continuity). Connect the other
test lead to the outer crimp on the antenna coaxial
cable connector.
(2) The resistance should be less than (1) ohm.
(3) If the resistance is more than (1) ohm, clean
and/or tighten the antenna base to the fender mount-
ing hardware.

CD CHANGER
DESCRIPTION
The 4 Disc In-Dash CD Changer (if equipped) is
located in the instrument panel below the radio. The
remote changer does not use a cartridge or magazine
for the CD's. Up to 4 CD's can be directly loaded into
this unit.
OPERATION
Due to its compact design, the CD changer can
carry out only one operation at a time. For example,
you can not load a new disc while playing another at
the same time. Each operation happens sequentially.
The radio unit provides control over all features of
the CD changer with the exception of the CD load
and eject functions, which are controlled by buttons
located on the front of the CD changer. All features
you would expect, such as Disc Up/Down, Track
Up/Down, Random and Scan are controlled by the
radio, which also displays all relevant CD changer
information on the radio display.
The CD changer contains a Load/Eject button and
an indicator LED for each of the four disc positions
as well as an illuminated disc opening. The individ-
ual LED indicates whether a CD is currently loaded
in that particular chamber of the CD changer. Press-
ing the individual Load/Eject button for a particular
chamber will eject a disc currently present in that
chamber. If the chamber is currently empty, actuat-
ing the Load/Eject button will position that chamber
to receive and load a new disc in that chamber.

REMOTE SWITCHES
DESCRIPTION
A remote radio control switch option is available on
some models. Two rocker-type switches are mounted
on the back (instrument panel side) of the steering
wheel spokes (Fig. 15). The switch on the left spoke
is the seek switch and has seek up, seek down, and
preset station advance functions. The switch on the
right spoke is the volume control switch and has vol-
ume up, and volume down functions. The switch on
the right spoke also includes a ªmodeº control that
allows the driver to sequentially select AM radio, FM
radio, cassette player, CD player or CD changer (if
equipped).
OPERATION
These switches are resistor multiplexed units that
are hard-wired to the Body Control Module (BCM)
through the clockspring. The BCM sends the proper
messages on the Chrysler Collision Detection (CCD)
data bus network to the radio receiver. For diagnosis
of the BCM or the CCD data bus, the use of a DRB
scan tool and the proper Diagnostic Procedures man-
ual are recommended. For more information on the
operation of the remote radio switch controls, refer to
the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box.
