Hey guys. Been putting in a switch to stop the electric antenna for the radio going up when I don't want it. Found that disconnecting the plug from the back of the antenna relay stops it from going up which is all cool. Couldn't find any solid information on which cable to cut (found a thread on here that said blue cable, but no luck there) so I've done it by process of elimination and just crimped them back together if not the one I want. On the third try I found one that seems to do what I want... kind of. The antenna is not going up when turning on the radio but the relay is still getting power (clicking) and seems to be getting confused. When I turn the car off it tries to pull the antenna down (even though its already down - it only runs the motor for a brief moment til it works out its down) unless it hasn't been on for very long (clicks after about 10-15 seconds and after that will try to pull it down when switching off).
My question is, is there a better wire I could be using? Rather not keep going with process of elimination if there isn't any need. Ultimately I'd like it so that when I flip the switch it will pull the antenna down straight away (not massively important) without turning off the radio/car.
