Tips for Identifying the FM Antenna Tip Correctly identifying your vehicle's FM antenna is a key to successfully installing the FEA. The preceding installation section already showed you the different kinds of FM antennas found on vehicles. However, there are several types of antennas found on vehicles that you may at first believe to be the FM antenna but which in reality are not. Instead they may actually be GPS, OnStar®, cell phone, factory-installed satellite radio antennas, or another type of antenna. Please be aware of the following when identifying your vehicle's FM antenna: • Puck-type antennas and shark-fin type antennas are never the FM antenna. Figure 46 shows several types of these antennas which should not be mistaken for an FM antenna. If you have located one of these types of antennas on your vehicle you can be certain that it's not the FM antenna. Continue your search to find the actual FM antenna. Figure 46 Installation 63

Tips for Identifying the FM Antenna
Correctly identifying your vehicle’s FM antenna is a key to successfully
installing the FEA. The preceding installation section already showed you the
different kinds of FM antennas found on vehicles. However, there are several
types of antennas found on vehicles that you may at
fi
rst believe to be the FM antenna
but which in reality are not. Instead they may actually be GPS, OnStar
®
, cell phone,
factory-installed satellite radio antennas, or another type of antenna.
Please be aware of the following when identifying your vehicle’s FM antenna:
Puck-type antennas and shark-
fi
n type antennas are
never
the FM antenna.
Figure 46
shows several types of these antennas which should not be mistaken for
an FM antenna. If you have located one of these types of antennas on your vehicle
you can be certain that it’s not the FM antenna. Continue your search to
fi
nd the
actual FM antenna.
