I connected an FM Modulator a few weeks back, and now my iPod works great. Last week I finally decided to listen to the radio, and it was only static on most channels. So this weekend I took everything apart, and found that everything was connected okay. So I disconnected the transmitter and the radio sounds good. Then I connected the radio to the antenna through just the antenna adapters, and I was not able to get any good sound, but better than through the transmitter. Has anyone else had issues with using the antenna adapters or with a transmitter?

turn it off with your switch. when enabled, you cancel out incoming waves and produce your own, ie ipod. once off normal radio waves will not be static.

I have static even when the modulator is out of the system. I have static through just the antenna adapters, and it gets even worse when I put the modulator in.

without the antenna adapters does it work right? have you tried swapping out the adapters.

antenna adapters? if you have an fm mod what antenna adapter do you have in there

I dont have any more adapters to try out. The adapters are to go from the small GM-style connector to the normal connector everyone else uses, and then back again, since nobody sells an FM modulator that works with the GM radios

right... my bad just thought about that. try putting it at the base of the antenna itself it might have the regular plug back there

Well I decided to check the antenna adapters for continuity for ***** and grins, and lo and behold, there was like 4 Meg Ohms of resistance on one of the brand new Best Buy adapters. One new adapter later, she works like a champ. Now I can put my dash plastic back on.
