New radio but lousy AM
I decided to upgrade the sound system in my 1999, gradually. Last year I replaced the amp which helped. Today I replaced the radio with a Pioneer DEH-P5900IB. I was pleased with the results but the AM reception is terrible. I know that this seems minor but I use AM for traffic reports, news and sports. The installer told me later that this was common with aftermarket radios. I guess no one under 30 listens to AM anymore. Any thoughts? Help.
I was also thinking about replacing the speakers in the instrument panel but getting ones to fit the speaker grille was going to require some modifications so I decided to pass for now. |
Ditto--
Changed the head unit and terrible AM radio reception...no one I have asked seems to have an answer. FM is better than stock though! Anyone with help?? I miss my Rush Limbaugh. :cheers: |
There may be a black wire that needs a 12v connection for the antenna amp, all my previous Porsche have had this.

Marc,
Thanks. Actually it was a Blue wire on the 99 Boxster. They powered it up and I am now able to get AM. |
What is this "AM" you speak of? Every radio ive ever had or bought didnt get this strange frequency you speak of. I think
