Don't turn the radio on



you could try unplugging the power wire?

I installed a power antenna with a switch in the line from the radio to the antenna. With the switch off i can listen to CDs with the antenna down.

Yup, put a switch in the remote turn on lead for the antenna. If I recall correctly it is lean No.8 coming out of the back of the radio.

Here is a good place for info on our stereos:

There is a wiring diagram:

But it doesn't list the antennae lead.
