It literally says, "To fix, reconnect antenna line male end to antenna line female end, wrap in duct tape.
Location of the door plastic thingy that you need to pull off
Notice the duct tape, yeah do this to fix it. |
i was trying to do this fix when i pulled slightly and this happened |

Goto a local stereo place and have them put a new connector on for like 10 bucks or something. Would cost you more to do it yourself because you'd have to buy the tool to do it.

1) learn to type coherent thoughts. I can't understand what the hell your talking about.
2) just go to a local radioshack and get the female Motorola Plug( http://www.radioshack.com/product/in...ductId=2102836) . Instructions as how to replace it are on the back of the package. Its not the end of the world. VERY EASY TO DO
OR
2b) remove the male end of the other wire, and solder the two together. Why bother have a disconnect in it? |

ive never had any luck at connecting these types of wires together.
as for soldering and reconnecting the way ive tried it in the past was to strip the rubber back, and take the braided wire and twist that, do the same to the other end,
the i try to the the inner wire the same way and keep it separate, then connect the two inners to each other, and connect the outers to each other, then seal
this usually only works half ass after ive done this to anything |

Sorry, You attempted to fix something that wasn't broken?
You tried to take it apart, put it back together, then duct tape it, Even though it wasn't coming apart?
I hope I'm reading this wrong.
