Interrupted radio reception
When such a repair is required, the customer complains that the radio reception fails completely or that it is interrupted.
Troubleshooting:
An error code query using a suitable diagnostic unit showed that no error codes had been stored.

Remedy:
- Disassemble the antenna rod
- Check the thread on the antenna rod (see photo) and also the thread in the roof antenna unit for damage and repair or replace if necessary.
- Mount the new antenna rod
- Check functioning of the radio
