Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

1 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have installed a Poineer head unit with DAB. I am using a stick on windscreen antenna which is earthed 9n the A pillar. The problem is the signal is weak and ofter shows no signal. I have checked the earth and the connection on the back of the unit and all seems fine. So I am wondering if I am the only one with this problem? There are other antennas but the need to be mounted to the body ie https://incartec.co.uk/product/70-964-dab-amplifie...
