2006 Lincoln Zephyr - Static on radio with rear window defroster

there is a box on the heater were the radio wire goes to the back screen. when they fail they do this. now as for finding this box it could be on the pas side rear compartment or in the boot under the rear window. if you follow were the wire to the heated window go it will be on the end of the wires. you will need to change this or put an external aerial on. like I did my self on my own car.

That means the actuator is stripped inside and will have to be replaced. While replacing, make sure latch mechanism is free and not jamming.

just eject them backwards from 6 until 1 that worked for me

battery needs to be changed. I have an 08 altima for two and a half years and have already had to replace battery in both remotes. Purchased them at Radio Shack.

check the connections going in to the window leads and also with a test light ,check if their is power at the terminals that plug into the window leads. does your car still have factory warranty that the dealer can look into this.

YES, THE RADIO ANTENNA IS PART OF THE DEFROST HEATER GRID.

I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE WINDOW PROBLEM - SOUNDS LIKE A FUSE.

HOPE THIS HELPS

The radio antenna is shared by the rear defroster, there is a part called the "Antenna Amplifier-Rear Window Defogger Coil", it is behind the left side rear pillar trim. It prevents the static from happening.

If the radio is aftermarket, they cross the circuitry of the antenna near the defroster, causing static in the antenna everytime you turn it on. Disassemble the radio and check for the wiring. Worst case scenario: they used the Positive wiring for the defogger switch and connected a wire to the radio's ACC cable.
