-> 206 Problems

#1: Rubbish Radio Reception Author: PaddyC, Location: Ireland PostPosted: Wed Apr 04, 2012 2:51 pm

As the title says my radio reception is crap. It's nothing to do with my location as even high up on a hill it still can go from perfect to pure static in the space of a few yards. I checked in my old (now my sisters) 306 and the reception anywhere in town is rock solid so there's a problem in my 206 somewhere. Could it be the aerial or the wire? Any way of checking? How east is it to replace the aerial/cable if they are at fault? Cheers.

What aerial do you have? A s***ty bee sting one?

It's the standard one that came on the 206.

It may be the plug falling out of the back of your headunit. It was an issue with mine. Took it out, pushed the plug back in a bit harder and it was fine Smile

Already checked the plug at the back, (first thing I checked) and it's nice and tight so I don't think it's that.

If you have a stock aerial and it's at the right angle, the only thing left to check would be the signal coming through the wire, I suppose

(Surely it can't just be my tired and immature mind that see this comment as highly amusing?)

I knew when I was typing that someone was gonna take it the dirty way. (Probably the same with that comment too!)

At least I'm not the only dirty minded member on here!
