NOTE: The front satellite radio antenna cable with navigation is shown.











Removal

NOTE: All of the satellite radio antenna cables are part of the vehicle wiring harness. Only the front and middle cables are serviceable separate from the harness. Because the cables cannot be removed from the harness, this procedure applies to replacement of the cables only.

NOTE: For vehicles with navigation, a splitter is built-in to the front satellite radio antenna cable to split the satellite radio and Global Positioning System (GPS) signals.

Front cable
