Jeep Audio Systems, Junk?

Apr 11, 2004 7 Replies

We have a 98 TJ, the AM Radio works fine. The FM seems really weak and the scanner picks up diddly. My GM pick up right along side of it has a ton FM stations booming in. Is this normal for the Jeep radio to be so weak?

My 01 TJ radio picks up FM signal where most other radios give up. May be there is something wrong with your unit. Is the external antenna plugged in properly?

Check here at the bottom of the page for a DYI Wrangler radio adjustment...worked great for me, same problem!!:

Thanks for the advice, when the sun comes up I'll check the antena plug in behind the glove box and then go farther with the repair if necessary. Dale

My '03 TJ has the best reception of any car stereo I've ever seen.... I just installed a nice Pioneer deck in my '95 ZJ it is supposed to have what they call "supertuner" and the TJ picks up stations not even heard in the ZJ. Jeff '03 TJ '95 ZJ

Dale, the antenna cable has a couple of spots it plugs in...the back of the radio, right behind the glove box, and then to the antenna base...make sure you check them all.
