Does anyone know where the fuse for the electric arial is...

my arial is not moving anymore, so i thought i would check the fuse.

But i can not find it... :(

There is no fuse for the antenna itself but it's wired to the radio. Does your radio work? There is a fuse for that under the hood and also by the driver's kick plate. More likely the antenna motor is dead - a common problem for the 4th gens. You can remove the antenna motor and test it by hooking it up to a 12V battery.

Ok, one more thing: did you remember to plug in the antenna connection at the rear of the head unit? I forgot to do that once, hehe
