Jetta TDI 2010 - Radio Not Working.

[Endriuska]

We bought a jetta which had rebuilt title, we thought we got a pretty good deal until all the misc things started coming up.


WV Jetta 2010 TDI

The car had hail damage and the rear window was replaced.

We are not able to get the reception for the radio. The SiriusXM work fine, and finds all its stations, but with radio we can't find anything.

There are few wires haning in the back, coming out of the roof part. I was wondering do these have to do anything with my radio? do i need to plug them in somewhere?
I called WV Center and they said that radio connects to rear window but I can't find where.

So few questions:

1. What are these wires for? are these for radio?
2. If not, what else could be wrong with radio? what can I check/do in order to get it to work?

Thanks alot!

my guess is the antenna is in the rear glass and they replaced it with non oem glass

yup you have antenna wires and rear defroster wires there if i had to guess, and yes i would say that they put in an aftermarket rear window because it was cheaper then the vw one, that said if you want it "right" you have to get a proper back window with the built in antenna, OR you could try one of those electronic antennas like this

that stick on the glass , most stereo shops stock them,they do work ok i have one in a car as does a friend, but the range on them isn't as good as a real antenna
