Power Antenna not going up

[nizmo]

I have a Mitsubishi Eclipse and I recently changed my old Sony hu to a Pioneer DEH-P4600MP.

I cut off all the connection from the sony hu and connect it on the pioneer, except for the blue wire, cos there is no blue wire from the pioneer hu. I guess there is where my power antenna is not coming up when i turn on the radio.

Where should I connect the blue wire to in order to have the antenna goes up when the radio is turn on.

ps. Before I disconnect my old radio I noticed that the ground wire fr the car is not connected, so I just ignored that. Is that ok?

Cheers

Wire it to the acc wire on your HU. Thats what i had to do on my lincoln.

As for the ground wire im not sure. If it works fine now, i say dont mess with it.

Actually I would prefer to have the antenna goes up only when I turn on the radio.

Can I tapped the blue wire to the antenna cable?
