then connect the remote lead to the ISO block (blue wire from HU to blue wire on car iso block) and that shall do the job :) - although your date wont show up, you will need to cut the grey/red wire (car side) on the iso block.
although, if still isnt doing anything, then it might not be the booster at fault :(

i havent cut any wires at all
all i have done is
Removed factory radio + cage
put new cage in
plugged everything in and dropped the cd player in
what am i doing wrong mate
sorry to mess u about but i aint got a clue!
cheers

aye...if you look on the MFD pin coming out of the ISO block, you will see a black cable and this is what goes to the booster, so just chop the grey/red cable and not both of them, it should work then :thumbs:
although i just disconnected the remote lead from the ISO block, to save on chopping of cables, and my reception is perfect...although goes abit dodgy when i get into the countryside (but only in a few places). :)

i have the pioneer 6500 and have same problem, i sometimes hear static in areas

cant you find alternative power for the booster? :S just a thought

its at the base of the aerial, but if u cut the wire to keep the display working it curts the power to the booster.

wheres the ariel booster mate?
i wanna keep the display on the dash
cheers

i have the same problem, but on mine its because i disconnected the aerial booster inorder to stop the MFD display turning off.

Alright Lads
I cant seem to get a decent radio signal on my corsa
ive checked the back of the stereo and all is sound, ive got a Pioneer DEH6500 HU and ive added a smaller Aluminium ariel
How easy is it to replace the whole thing for a decent quality one?
cheers
