Which wire activates the power antenna?
 
I'm installing a new head unit in my old '82 NA, and it's been so long since I've fiddled with the wiring that I forgot which wire activates the power antenna. I previously had a fixed antenna on there, so it wasn't an issue before. But I reinstalled the original power antenna, so I need to figure which wire makes it go up. There's a solid green wire that doesn't seem to connect to anything; is that one it?

I am 93% sure it is that pale green wire...I also have the 82 N/A.

It is settled then...Pale Green. :038:

Hm, I thought the pale green went to one of the back speakers.. Guess I'll give it a whack. So I wonder then what the medium/dark green wire goes to then..

I thought it was the light blue with white stripe. That is what's hooked to the antennae switch on the stereo console. I am pretty sure anyway.:wasted:

Don't forget...the factory wire is also supposed to goto that button that raises the antenna from half mast to full mast...the local/distant button.

Who's got a Haynes manual? ;) Or the '82 FSM?
