Thats normal, it has a 200 Watt Amp inside of it.

As far as the AM/FM, I don't know. Sometimes people think the antenna wire is in, when it really needs to be pushed another 1/4" or so.

Some cars have an antenna amplifier built into the antenna assembly and require 12 volt power. If you need power, connect the blue wire from the Z1 to it.
