Wrangler 2WD V6-3.8L (2008)
Antenna, Radio: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
All models use a fixed-length stainless steel rod-type antenna mast, installed on the right front cowl side panel of the vehicle. The antenna mast is
connected to the center wire of the coaxial antenna cable, and is not grounded to any part of the vehicle.
To eliminate static, the antenna base must have a good ground. The antenna coaxial cable shield (the outer wire mesh of the cable) is grounded to the
antenna base and the radio chassis.
The antenna coaxial cable has an additional disconnect, located behind the right end of the instrument panel between the radio and the right cowl side
panel. This additional disconnect allows the instrument panel assembly to be removed and installed without removing the radio.
