Has anyone experienced their radio cutting in and out all the time. Thinking something is up with connection to antenna? It does it when the fm radio is on but also when we connect through our phone and bluetooth so that is what is confusing us. Thanks for any input.

Since the antenna cannot influence all of those sources...I would consider something that can...like a loose speaker wire connection point in the harness.

Had that problem in my 2010 Dutch Aire, FM would quit on a bump or dip. The antenna which is about a 16 gauge wire about a foot long that just hangs loose off the back of radio. The wire would move around and touch another wire or the metal case and ground out the signal. Dealer brought the tip of the wire 1/4 inch out between radio and dash pinched it between radio and dash to keep it from moving or bouncing behind the radio. That solved the issue.

The ant lead may have a poor crimp in connector in back of radio or the ant on roof.
Should be a coax cable.
