Need help troubleshooting Jeep antenna / radio problem.

It's a 2 year old Alpine. Is there a way to test from the end of the antenna or antenna base to the connection at the back of the radio to see if there is a problem with the cable or attachment location in the fender well?

If I were you, what I'd do is start at the radio, than work your way from there. So in other words, get another radio, wire it up, same problem with a different radio, than you know its the antenna, not the radio. Then trouble shoot the antenna. I mean hell, you already replaced the antenna. I dont think its your antenna, So your situation is weird.

If you dont have another radio, you could always go to best buy, buy one, and return it within 30 days, no questions asked for a full refund.
