behind the stereo there will be a blue wire coming out the back with a heap of other wires. disconnect this one. not the blue with white trace though as this is your amp remote turn on wire. that should fix it!

i had the same problem so i just installed a switch to block the antenna signal wire from the HU.

what u will need

-switch

-wire

-screw driver

-wire cutters

-wiring diagrams for car and HU

-and a way to connect the wires. i recommend solder and shrink sleeve but some terminals will also do the job

to do this u need to remove the HU. using the wiring diagrams find the antenna signal wire. cut and splice it. attach a length of wire to the wire to one of the spliced wires. now chase the length of wire through to were u want to mount the switch. now get another length of wire and do the same to the other spliced wire. now attach the switch to the 2 lengths of wire. put it all together and done. it took me about 20min the longest bit was removing the HU, wiring takes no time

it the antenna goes up with HU off. the wiring is f**ked and u get to have fun fixing somebody else's f**k ups. its a bitch i had to fix my bros HU and it would have been easer to pull it all out and start over.

but also bear in mind some HU will make the antenna go up even if its set to CD or USB. my HU done this thats why i have the switch but u still pick up FM real good with the antenna down so i have mine down all the time unless im traveling out of town and want to listen to FM

thanks heaps mate

if you just disconnect the blue wire it will stop your antenna from going up and down, it will still be connected, just wont look like your trying to contact out of space.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
