• Q: How to replace the Global Positioning System Antenna for Cellular Communications/Digital Radio on 2006 Cadillac CTS?

  A: The replacement procedure for the Global Positioning System antenna for Cellular Communications/Digital Radio begins with removing rear sail panels without applying paint or clear coat on the antenna because it interferes with its operational efficiency. Slowly drop the rear part of the headliner down in a controlled manner to prevent damage from improper bending. Detach the steel antenna cable foam tape before removing all plastic antenna connectors from their binding point. Begin by removing the antenna bolt combined with expansion sleeve from the system then extract the antenna. Install the new antenna by placing it on the roof and direct the wiring pigtail to the side slot on the antenna shaft and use the antenna expansion sleeve and bolt to secure it before tightening the bolt to 6 N.m (53 lb in). After reconnecting the antenna connectors you should apply foam tape around the connectors. The antenna cable installation point must be placed above the AM/FM antenna module and the antenna cable hold down clips need to be securely fastened. After aligning the headliner to the roof panel installation ends by putting back the rear sail panels.
