Examination
Pic. 19.53. Electrical circuit for testing an electrically powered antenna
Set up an electrical circuit as shown in Fig. 19.53 (solid lines).
1. Check that the antenna extends when the connection indicated by the dotted line is closed.
2. Check that the antenna retracts when the connection indicated by the dotted line opens.
Retractable Antenna Replacement
1. Loosen the round nut.
Pic. 19.54. Removing the telescopic part of the antenna: 1 – telescopic part of the antenna; 2 - toothed cable
2. After turning the ignition key to position «ACC» or «ON» turn the radio switch to position «ON» (On), to raise the retractable antenna and remove it together with the toothed cable (pic. 19.54).
3. Pull out the retractable antenna as far as it will go.
Attention! If the toothed cable is bent in the electric drive area, correct the bend.
Pic. 19.55. Installing the cable with the toothed part towards the luggage compartment: 1 - toothed part of the cable; 2 - side of the luggage compartment; 3 - elimination of bending of the toothed cable
4. Insert the toothed cable into the electric drive so that the toothed part of the cable is directed towards the luggage compartment (pic. 19.55).
Pic. 19.56. Subsequent turn of the toothed part of the cable towards the rear of the vehicle: 1 - toothed part of the cable; 2 - rear of the car
5. Turn the teeth of the toothed cable towards the rear of the vehicle (strictly 90°) so that the toothed cable engages with the gear of the electric drive (pic. 19.56).
6. If the toothed cable pulls out without resistance when it is pulled lightly, it means that it has not engaged with the electric drive gear. In this case, check the cable for bends at the end and reinstall it.
7. Install the retractable antenna vertically and turn the radio switch to the position «OFF» (Off), to wind the toothed cable. Insert the retractable antenna from its motor side to align it with the coiled toothed cable.
8. After tightening the round nut, check the movement of the antenna by turning the radio on and off.
