Function And Application
The antenna provides vehicle radio reception for AM and FM bands and serves as the factory aerial solution for compatible roof-mounted installations. It is intended as a direct-fit replacement to maintain original radio performance and signal quality. Suitable for workshops replacing damaged or degraded antenna assemblies on the listed Citroën and Peugeot models.
How To Replace
Recommended for experienced technicians or competent DIYers. Typical replacement steps:
- Park the vehicle on level ground and disconnect the negative battery terminal before starting work.
- Remove the interior roof lining or trim pieces as required to access the antenna base nut, or remove the exterior housing if fitted.
- Unscrew or unclip the antenna mast/base from the roof and carefully disconnect the coaxial connector at the antenna mount.
- Install the new antenna, ensuring correct connector seating and sealing against the roof to prevent water ingress.
- Reconnect the battery and check radio reception and any antenna-related systems before reassembling trims.
Installation Recommendations
- Always disconnect the battery before starting work to avoid electrical damage or short circuits.
- Verify that the replacement antenna uses the same connector type and mounting dimensions as the original unit.
- Inspect the coaxial cable and connectors for corrosion or damage and replace if required to ensure optimal signal transfer.
- Apply appropriate sealing (butyl tape or factory-style gaskets) at the roof interface to prevent water leaks.
- Test radio reception immediately after fitment and before full reassembly to confirm correct operation.
Most Common Failure Reasons
Antennas typically fail due to long-term exposure to weather and mechanical damage. Common causes include water ingress that corrodes connectors or the internal feeder, physical impact that breaks the mast or housing, and connector corrosion leading to intermittent or no signal. UV degradation of seals and gaskets can also allow moisture entry over time. Replacing the antenna and any corroded cabling usually restores proper reception.
