I bought a new sony deck about a month ago and wired it in using a wiring harness. it sounds great but i don't have the tuner option even though the antenna is plugged in. i was wondering if there was a certain wire on the harness that i needed to connect that world work the antenna maybe?

*Edited* pull it out and check the antenna plug again, I have had it happen countless times where the lead is a little short and it ends up getting pulled half out while reinstalling.

Aside from the advice already given, make sure that the blue wire from the radio is connected to the blue (or possibly blue/white) in the aftermarket harness. That will provide power to the antenna booster. Also make sure that if you have an FM modulator in the antenna circuit that will cause reduced reception if it is powered on, even if you aren't using the circuit.
