[VXL V6]

Not a lot mate.the miggy is rather me off at the moment, cannot put the heated rear window on without the radio rather hissing and crackling, had it checked at Vx today and they are scratching their heads....rather pr*cks, a lot of help they are

I had the exact same problem with my old Vectra saloon (same built into screen aerial idea). VX had no idea, best they could come up with was to smash the rear window and claim on the insurance for a new one!

Anyway, I cleaned the screen both inside and out, and disconnected then reconnected all the links I could find to do with the aerial. The links to the amplifier seemed to be the ones at fault and a quick clean up seemed to sort the problem. It's also worth checking that all earth connections are good.
