Anyone have any clues. We have tried fixing this a couple times, once myself, and then a friend, and then took the cord to a cirtcuit city with that write up, still no luck. Is there anything else, or should I just shell out and buy a new antenna?

So i did all that but the radio is still showing check antenna. I tried unplugging the power and plugging it back in. I also tried hitting reset, but no luck. Is there another thing I need to do, or anything else that could be wrong?

So my xm antenna cord got cut in half, so I tried for the time being to strip the casing off and twist the wires together and tape it up, but the radio keeps flashing check antenna. Is there something I am missing, or a special way of reconnecting it. soldering would be the next step, but it doesnt work at all (however the traffic still works).
