[QUOTE="Geoff.C, post: 8862809, member: 690267"] Hello, I am a relatively competent DIY fitter, but have run into a snag that I would appreciate some help with please. I am upgrading the head unit in my Fiat Ducato based camper, and am currently fitting a Pioneer SPH-EVO950DAB unit. I have sourced an interface kit (with new fascia) from Connects2. Within the kit are a 'Male Fakra to SMB Female Antenna Adapter' and a 'Fakra to DIN Aerial Antenna Adapter' Both of these connecters have a thin blue lead with a metal clip on the end (see photo below). [ATTACH type="full" width="411px" alt="1699726951282.png"]54615[/ATTACH] I am guessing that this is a grounding lead, but the connection on the end of the lead does not appear to be very strong, and I am not sure where to connect it. I currently have it clipped to the head unit chassis, but the DAB signal is rather flaky. The connection does not feel very secure, and I think I have probably got it wrong. Can anyone advise me where / how this should be connected please ? Many thanks Geoff [/QUOTE]
