I just got my hands on a 92 lincoln continental. Not a bad car, replaced the airsuspension with a strut conversion kit and havent had any troubles until just recently. I purchased a new alpine cd player and a buddy and I installed it using a smartharness wire adapter. Everything is great except now my power antenna isnt functioning at all. I know its a simple fix but I'm just not sure which wire isnt connected to which wire. On the wireharness we had 2 cut and tape 1 wire because the radio would stay on even when the ignition was shutoff.

Any input if this has happened before or if its common and what to do would be greatly appreciated. thz :)

lemme take a couple seconds and explain how much of a moron any1 else who has this problem and myself are...
its really quite simple, i only looked at the antenna when i was playin a cd... and when playin a cd theres no need 2 get a signal for radio stations, and that is y the antenna doesnt go up and vise versa when listening 2 the radio! I apollogize for any1 who has actually viewed my post because i am a true dumby :P

thanks again

...oooOOO 1 more quick question (harder then 1st :})
does removing the little bulb from the 'airbag' light cause an annoying buzzer 2 sound for a short period of time after starting?!
i lied, 1 more question...
i have a 92 conti and im curious 2 know if the gauge switch buttons (ie speedalarm, and other buttons) are suppose 2 b lite up? mine arent and i know i could just pull apart the dash again, but i think it would b easier 2 ask others and just not have 2 deal with all the damn plugs and stuff behind there.
thanks again for any information
