Changing Non-power antennae cable to radio

[GNTOIT]

Anyone know how to replace the cable running from radio behind glove compartment through fender attached to bottom of screw where mast screws in? Mine is broke on one end and I need to replace? Is it possible with fender/door on?

Might take a little patience but Im pretty sure it can be done. You can get to the antenna mounting bolts and cable through one of the holes on the inner fender.
Should be able to get to cable through the wheel well, if you need to, by removing some of the wheel well bolts under fender. I think it travels down the top of the wheel well if I remember right.

Did you break the end that goes to the radio?

 

[GNTOIT]

Yeah. The radio end has a female receptacle and there is metal broken off inside of it so new radio lead won't go into it.

 

[TURBOV6]

You can easily splice an new one in. Radio shack use to have end that you can solder in.

I 2nd that, TurboV6 is correct. If that is all your problem is go to radio shack. Ive done this very recently on my Suburban. Easy fix
