is there a Antenna Radio wire?

[vietkid_2006]

is there a certain wire for the radio for my antenna if so, what color is it?

if not. then which wire COULD i use for it to work with my antenna?

i've shorten it down to 2 wires.

two thin wires a blue one with grey dots on it.

and a green/red stripe with grey dots on it.

and btw fyi, i have a 4th gen accord so i have an antenna that i'd like to use. with the

98-02 radio. if you guys could help any TIA

the antenna wire is the thick black one plugged into the back of the radio by itself

 

[vietkid_2006]

no not that. i know that's for the radio.

but since my 4th gen accord has a power antenna

so i want to know how to wire it up so it can go up and down when i turn on the HU

sorry if that confused anyone.

 

[Accord281]

ah. gotcha. sorry.

Bump I want to put this into my car by this week!!

 

[vietkid_2006]

hmmm...could i use my ignition wire? since when turn on the car and the second position the ignition is the one that turns the radio into like stand by mode.

until the power button is pushed..

but..if i do that. i wonder if everytime i turn the ign. on wonder if it will turn on my antenna...?!

someone want to help elaborate with me.?

either way i'll find a way tomorrow...

remote wires on a radio is always blue or blue and white thats is the remote power antenna

 

[vietkid_2006]

i thought that too. i'll give it a try tomorrow.

i thought that too. i'll give it a try tomorrow.

it's the solid blue wire. but i rather use the orange which is the ignition wire. there's a small delay for the HU to turn on when ignite turns on. not a big difference but that's just me. =]
