Hey Everyone,

Just a quick question. My auto up aerial is broken, and makes a hell of a racket for about 30 seconds when the car turns on and off, trying to go up (but can't). Does anyone know if there is a fuse which controls the aerial only? I have tried rummaging around inside the boot, but can't reach the aerial cabling. I assumed the aerial wire into the back of the head unit, if disconnected, would stop this from happening, but the head unit is turned off - still happens.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Brendon.

Hmmm who ever wired up your head unit is dodgy... as it sounds like they wired the aerial into the Accesories rather than the head unit itself. I know this because I installed my own head unit and the aerial only goes up when the head unit it switch to RADIO (ie it isn't up if im playing a cd)... So you could possibly get it rewired at whatever cost if there isn't a fuse to control it...

It's actually the factory head unit. Yeha you're probably right about it being wired to the accessory. I'll have to trace it back or something.

When I pull the factory head unit out I'll see how it is wired, and fix before I install the new one.

Cheers.

same thing with me, it would sound like its goin up but it doesnt actually go up, was never anythin wrong with the wiring coz when i got my new tv/ headunit installed it was all fine, but ive removed the rear antenna now so i guess i dont really need to know how to fix but good to know why it was doin that...

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
