That's too much work for so little return. Replace it with a decent after market unit and call it a day.bent driver wrote:how much of the headliner has to come down to change the antenna base? Is there a multimeter test to check the amplifier circuit installed on car? All functions of the unit work except a very weak AM/FM signal. The FSM gives three conditions for the weak signal- 1) antenna amp ON signal ckt , 2) antenna base, 3)antenna feeder. Best thinking trouble shooting says if I have a 5 volt signal out of the unit, the amplifier is the culprit. Any help is appreciated. Don't want to "shotgun" a $100 antenna base repair if a wire bundle is the problem.

I'm a the new owner of a 2011 Nissan Rogue. I love everything about the car, however the antenna couldn't be in a more inconvenient spot for me. I just got a new kayak, and since my Rogue has no bars, I had to buy an inflatable kayak rack. Guess what's directly in the way? The antenna! I already screwed off the actual antenna, but the base is still in the way. Any advice? Please don't tell me it's not removable

Is there anything In particular I need to be aware of? I have navigation and satellite radio but as far as I know, the antenna on top does not control those.
Any help or direction with this project will be greatly apprciated, especially if you can share a product link. Thanks!
Hi, can you take pics of the actual damage of the antenna base?mcclete22 wrote: ↑Fri Sep 28, 2018 9:11 amHello all,
Glad I found this forum.
Here is my question: I recently purchased a 2016 Nissan Rogue. This Rogue's roof antenna is broken off and the antenna base is cracked. I checked with the dealer and they quoted my a repair price of over $500. I found some youtube videos on people with other vehicles changing out their own roof antennas and I wondered if thats something I could do. Also, does it have to be the same as the current antenna or could I use a "shark fin" antenna?
I am not very car savvy, but can do somethings like change headlights, tail lights, simple mechanical stuff. Is there anywhere I can go to read how to, or watch a video on how to change my roof antenna including the base?
Follow up question, where can I get this roof antenna without it breaking the bank.
Any help, thoughts, ideas, or suggestions are greatly welcomed.
Thanks,
Mick
So if I removed the Rod from mine, would I just loose the AM/FM reception only or would I loose AM/FM/SXM/GPS reception all together?RyleyinSTL wrote: ↑Sun Sep 07, 2014 1:58 pmRear antenna rod is for AM/FM radio reception not GPS/XM.
