Antenna in 2003 Expedition EB

[johnknmr]

My antenna does not work, I only get one station out of many I should be getting. The 6 CD/AM FM unit is not the problem, it is either in the coax cable or the window on inside of passenger side rear panel window. Been to one auto shop and they aren't sure what is wrong. Any advice. Thanks

Unless you want to run down the whole cable, I would just get a good Shakespeare 4353 marine antenna and stick it under the dash behind the radio. There's plenty of room back there. It will get fine reception through the plastic dash and glass windshield. Shakespeare 4353 AM/FM antenna . The stock Expedition antenna cable is two parts. They connect behind the right side rear passenger A-pillar trim. If it ever had factory NAV system installed there would be an antenna amp back there too. If it wasn't getting powered up the reception would suck as well. The basic stereo doesn't have the antenna amp back there.

Thanks - That's a great suggestion I would never have thought of.
