So I can't figure this out so I will ask the great people here. My 2008 jk 2 door has the standard radio and today the fm part started skipping when I hit a bump at first I thought it was just the station I was on but it did it to whatever station I changed it to any ideas. Thanks everyone

Sounds like the antenna connection.

Joeysjeep

On the back of the radio?

14Sport

That's what I would check. Or the antenna loose on the base. If it also happens when not playing the radio, like CD or aux, then it would most likely be a loose ground. But if it's just radio stations cutting out over bumps then I would check the antenna connections.

OK so pulled the radio and pushed all the connectors in and reached under the dash and found the antenna cable and pushed in on the connector haven't taken it out for a spin yet will know more tomorrow.

Did it feel like it wasn't on tight when you did it?

Joeysjeep

Sit felt tight then I my wife plugged in her phone and it skipped with that too. So I guess the radio is messed up

Or a loose connection somewhere. Might be time for an upgrade.

So now that I look at new radios the stock one started working right lol go figure it got wind of getting replaced. Lmao
