fuse for antenna and dash clock?

[jamr1]

The 4runner I bought, the guy claimed the fuse was removed to keep the broken antenna from making noise, consequently making the dash clock stop working. I bought a replacement antenna mast, I see no fuse missing. Which one would operate the antenna?

The clock was pluged into a dumby plug on the back of the trim piece??? Plug fit perfectly, but no mail parts in the hole. I guess this was done when the stereo was put in. There is a loose wire behind the stereo, it looks like an antenna insert for the back of a car stereo, only a little smaller? Is this the part from the antenna that plugs into the factory stereo??

If your antennas are part of the rear quarter window glass on each side of the Runner ( that is a line inside the glass) and you have an aftermarket stereo you would only be able to plug in one antenna. In other words the original stereo had 2 antenna plugs in the rear. One large and one small.

I have the auto mast antenna, would it also have them in the glass?? I have ordered a new mast, just waiting for it to arrive.

Like dr was saying the factory HU has inputs for two signal plugs. When I installed my HU I could only plug one in, so I had to leave one just hanging back there. This didn't effect my clock though (or at least I don't think). My radio reception is a little worse though.

No the clock was not working due to some one plugging it into a dummy plug on the rear of the trim panel. It now works, I just need to figure out how he disabled the power antenna?
