Headunit antenna wire

Just got my wiring harness in for my JVC head unit, i got everything working on it except for the radio(Am/Fm), i tried every combo of the blue wires i could but still no radio, lemme elaborate a lil.......

There are 2 blue wires on the car harness(Blue/white stripe)(Blue) then the head unit harness antenna wire(blue) also the small vial antenna thing, i tried going with 2 blues from the car and 1 end of the vial, and the opposite end going to the Blue head unit wire, i thought this was the combo, could it be possible the vial thingy is bad?

Tried just about every combo with the wires.



Help would be much appretiated.

d00d, you would be better off posting some pics or something here I think...I'm confused when you start talking about a "vial"...sounds like you are trying to hook up a "power antenna" wire to your radio, but your mustang should not have a power antenna on it, should have the mast mounted on the right front fender, and the black wire from that should plug into the back of your new JVC radio just like it did on your stock radio. If you're not getting power to the unit, I would suggest you start looking at whether or not you actually have power going to your hot (red) wire...Just my .02 cents worth though...

Well i have power to everything, cd's play, all acessories work, just cant get the antenna to get a signal, i know the antenna is not stock(previous owner said he changed it out), it sits about 12 inches high off the fenderwell. The little vial looking thing i am talking about is like an inch in size, cylinder shape, has a little fuse inside it and a blue wire comming out each side, this is what was on the car originally, but i forget how it was hooked up, eh gotta goto work, i'll see if i cant find pics when i get home.
