Because the antenna system is equipped with a capacitor, the continuity cannot be checked. Therefore proceed the following simple inspection.
-
Turn the AM radio on.
-
Tune to the frequency that there is no broadcast and you will hear a buzzing sound.
-
Turn a work light on and shake it around the antenna rod. (around 10—20 mm {0.40—0.78 in})
CAUTION:
-
Use a fluorescent light type for the inspection. Accurate diagnostic cannot be done with a different type of light.
-
-
If a whirring sound from the speaker synchronized to the work light movement is confirmed, the antenna system is normal.
