Default black wire, sirius?

So my dealer installed sirius in my 2 dr about 2 weeks ago. On my way home I noticed this black wire coming from the floor to under the dash, I have no clue what it is. If it is the sirius is any one else's like this? I think it's pretty shitty way to run a wire if thats how jeep intended, If its not the right way I guess it is back to that awful place on Monday.

I tried moving it, the thing is zip tied in 4 spots I could see and wasn't budging. Thanks for the answer though, all it means is more trouble for the dealer and another phone call to dcx about how they need to revamp their 5-star rating system.

I had mine installed by the dealership after the fact, too-- I'll take a look tomorrow and let you know if my antenna wire is run that way.

With all the trouble my dealer has given me, I would rather piss them off and make them pay for another rental while they fix thier screw ups.

I just went ant took a pic... gimme a few to figure out how to post it. My wire is much farther back on my 2 Door with factory Sirius. Its pretty close to the main wire loom back there.

Default Cross your fingers :)



I think its the wire held on my that plastic retainer back there. It definitely is much farther back than where you dealer put it... and more secure too.

Hope this helps.

Thanks alot, I just called my dealler and spoke to the manager there. With all the problems I have had, All dealer related ( The jeep is awesome ) he told me,
"Well we've already given you free oil changes, I don't know what else you want other then to be a problem." and then also fit in how it seems like I am complaning and being a " Ass hole" about every problem. I made an apointment to have it repaired on 5-21 but there is no way I plan on letting these freaks touch my jeep again. I will be calling DCX on my way out of work once again.
