Unable To Pick Up Radio Stations On 6000cd

[NJC1971]

Hello , just gone and purchased a Ford Galaxy through a private sale, I obviously didn't try the radio when I test drived it. Driving it home the radio just continuosly scans through FM and MW not picking up any stations, when tuning manually it doesn't work either. I noticed that the Galaxy doesn't have a aerial. I guess I will need to go to a Ford dealer to have a look. Does anybody have anythoughts.

I think the aerial is in the rear screen, if this is true I would be looking at the wiring on the tailgate which causes loads of bother reading through the posting on our forum.

aerial is in osr window glass.

 

can you slide the radio out to make sure the aerial is connected??

 

if it isnt-push the plug back in

 

if it is--------unplug it and put a length of wire @ 2 foot long into the aerial socket (will act as an aerial) if it then starts to lock onto stations, you know the problem lies with the aerial lead/window glass/plug into the back of radio.

Take a look at the rear r/h window.

This is the ariel and sometimes it can come unplugged.

Mine had the same problem and it was the plug to the window/ariel had become undone.
