I have a Ford Mondeo 2.0 Titanium X 08 plated and the radio that came with it is seriously poor with signal.

It can hardly pick up many local radio station whereas my Wife's Ford Focus picks up fine. I have gone down thinking it was the aerial on the roof so I bought a new one on eBay but it's still the same. The other day I thought perhaps the antenna cable behind it may have come loose, so I took everything out to get behind it, but all looks fine.

Ok, I'm not always a radio person but on the odd day it would be nice to listen to it. Can anyone suggest any ideas that I could try to resolve this, I'm not really interested in buying a new radio unit as I feel this is a poor solution just to boost the signal and I don't live in a bad area where radio signals are not poor either (as my Wife's car radio is fine as well as my previous cars).

Thanks for reading!

    There has to be a problem with the aerial somewhere between the base and the back of the radio.

    It could either be that the base itself is corroded somewhere or even possibly the cable has come away from the socket on the radio itself.
