Radio areal on 960 (saloon)

Feb 28, 2005 3 Replies

Hi All;



My Radio areal has gone the same as an old 740 I ran for years. It jams, will not properly extend, doesn't park properly. I use to oil these but went off the idea as this seems to choke them with grit un grime. Running them dry returns the same problems.



Any tips on how to deal with the rogue? The areal comes out of the boot OK but cannot seems to get into the guts of the thing to wash and dry.



Regards Ian



Can you try to speak either english or a definitive other language because I tried to figure what is an "areal" and ... even with Google I couldn't find anything realted to radio or Volvo.

Replace the antenna mast (areal as you say). I did this, just the mast. Can get the mast alone and need not get the whole assembly. Mast alone is much lower cost and can be had after market for even less. Got one here in the US for under $20. About an hour to do it, I had to dissassemble the housing as there was some of the old bits in there that could only be removed that way. If you are handy it is a straight forward job.

Here is a link I found with photos

Just because you do not know how to spell aerial correctly does not give you the right to moan at what was obviously a slip of the typing finger (typo). This is just what you have done with "realted" instead of related.

Cheers, Peter.
