1992 Buick Century limited review from North America
"Good car. Help me with antenna please"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I noticed that some one had a comment about their radio antenna. 1992 Buick Century.
"Radio Antenna will not go up or down, stays running constantly. I have to pull the fuse to turn it off."
I have the same problem. The plastic cord that pushes and pulls the antenna pulls and down has now broken. This doesn't allow the limit switch for the full up, or the full down, to engage. Therefore the power antenna runs forever and kills the battery. The antenna is located in the front fender and is pain in the you know what to get at. Is there a way to kill power to the antenna with out getting to the antenna motor itself? Keep in mind that the power to this motor is not only powered by the radio, but by the ignition also. I understand that there might be a solenoid. Where ' exactly ' is that located? Also, If I simply unplug the radio, would that have any effect?
General comments?
Been good except this radio antenna thing.
