99 Gr Voyager Radio Removal Problem
The procedure for removing the radio from this minivan is very
straightforward. My question/problem is that the electrical wiring cables which attach to the rear of the radio unit do not allow me enough freedom to pull the radio out of its mounting unit to disconnect them. The radio can only be pulled about 1/2 the depth of the radio. There is no real access to allow one to reach in from behind or underneath the radio to disconnect the wiring. Is there some type of cable tie on these which needs to be cut? Is there a known problem where they might be caught on something? Unfortunately for me, the antenna and power connectors became disconnected, and I cannot access the back of the radio to get them re-connected. I didn't want to needlessly disassemble the whole dash. |

You shouldnt have to dissassemble the whole dash, the wires may be wedged up
in back, you should be able to pull the harness by grabbing on to the wires before the connectors. Be carefull not to just pull the radio or you may damage it.. The radio was installed when new and there had to be enough length for the installation of it. Sometimes you have to reach back to unhook the connectors and they can be tight. Did you have any work done to the vehicle since you had it that may have caused the harness to get pinched?
