• Q: How to replace the antenna cable sub-assy on 2003 Toyota Corolla?

  A: The replacement process of antenna cord sub-assy begins with taking off the instrument panel sub-assy upper while carefully detaching necessary parts linked to antenna cord removal. Initiate the antenna cord removal procedure by removing both the visor holder and every element from the roof headlining assembly which interferes with cord extraction. Users should remove sunroof opening trim mouldings when their vehicle has a sliding roof system. The antenna cord sub-assy removal process begins with disconnecting the connector and antenna cord plug at its rear end while simultaneously removing the 2 clamps at this rear section and the 9 clamps at this front section. Take out the antenna cord sub-assy from the roof headlining after you have carefully removed the roof headlining assembly without causing any bending damage. Mount the antenna cord sub-assy to its designated spot on the roof headlining after centering it on the tape strip of 100 mm (3.94 in.) x 25 mm (0.98 in.) dimensions which should face the non-adhesive side. The roof headlining assembly should be reinstalled while using the 9 clamps from the antenna cord front side before reconnecting both the plug and connector at the rear side. As the last step you should install both the bench type seat cushion assembly and fixed or separated type seat back assembly and then the instrument panel sub-assy upper.
