[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 7421521, member: 576029"] maybe the factory radio antenna is a different impedance. i haven't encountered that before. more likely, the factory antenna has a built-in booster and the factory HU gives it power through the antenna wire. without that power the antenna may not function and the reception you get is just from the coaxial wire (which is shielded). i'm sure a search in some Nissan forums would hash that out. you can buy external FM antennas that mount to the rear (or front) glass and just bypass factory antenna completely.
