I finally installed the JVC double din to my versa.

In new antenna wire, I saw one plug and one blue wire.
I do not know where to hook that up.. is it same thing as ground wire? just hook it some where that has metal?

After I just hook the one plug to JVC the radio seems working okay except for one channel ( my other car was working)
Do you think it is because I did not hook the blue wire?
If so where do i hook that blue wire??

the blue wire is sort of like an amp turn on lead, but for the antenna, it gives it a little bit of extra juice. You connect in with a blue or blue/white wire. On the wiring harness for my pioneer hu, the wire had a little paper tab on the end that said "remote wire". Without plugging that in, radio reception may become spotty at times.

you can put it with the blue (amp turn-on wire) or the red switched power wire. It just needs a 12V switched power source.

It will probably make your reception much better.
