2011 Jeep liberty acting weird after heater core replacement.

It sounds like there may be an issue with the electrical system of your 2011 Jeep Liberty after the heater core replacement. Here are some things you can check to diagnose the problem:
  1. Wiring: Make sure all the wiring has been properly reconnected and check for any loose or damaged wires.
  2. Fuses: Check the fuses to make sure they have not blown as a result of the electrical issue.
  3. Blower motor: If the blower motor is not functioning properly, it may be causing the issue with the blower speed. Check the motor for any damage or signs of wear and replace if necessary.
  4. Electrical control module: The electrical control module is responsible for controlling the various electrical components in your vehicle. If it is not functioning properly, it may be causing the issues with the blower and the radio.
  5. Radio: If the radio is only working on satellite, there may be an issue with the antenna or the connection to the antenna. Check the antenna and the connection to make sure everything is properly connected.

Antenna

The only reason to have an electrical wire going to the antenna is for a motor that raises and lowers the antenna. The antenna cable to the radio is the only wire on the antenna.
To replace the antenna, you have to remove it from where it connects onto the car, then lift it out from there. The antenna and the cable cannot be separated, it's all one piece. You pull the cable off of the back of radio, and tie a strong string onto it, because when you lift out the antenna, the cable will be pulled out from under the dash and to wherever the antenna is situated and out that hole. Now tie the string onto (hope you had a long string, lol) the end of the cable on your new antenna and cable, and stick the end of the cable into the antenna mounting hole. Pull the string from under the dash by the radio and you will bring the cable back into the dash and where you can plug it into the old radio and listen to good old music again !

How do you replace the radio and insert a cd player?

Hi, pull the trim plate off the dash around the radio. The trim may go all around the instrument panel. With the trim plate off, you can see the factory radio screws. Take the screws out, pull the radio out and remove the connectors, including the antenna wire.
You will need an adapter to fit the aftermarket radio snugly into the dash. They sell these wherever they sell aftermarket radios. I recommend you also buy the cable adapter. If you don't, at least buy the antenna adapter of you will no be able to plug your antenna into the new CD player.
Follow the instructions on putting the adapter together--it's made for a lot of different cars. You need it to screw into your dash where the screws came out.
If you buy the wire adapter, follow the directions that come with it. I recommend you solder the wires, but you can use those crimp connectors if you don't have soldering equipment.
If you don't buy the adapter cable, use the factory wire colors below to match up the aftermarket wires to your factory wires. Wrap any solder connections with electrical tape and carefully plug everything back in, including the antenna adapter and antenna cable. With the adapter plate attached to the new player, carefully push the wiring aside to get the player into the slot and then screw it in. check the system for proper operation and then replace the trim panel.
Enjoy your CDs, and let me know if you have any questions.

2003 town car. No FM Signal

This would be a bad connection. In this case you have 2 connections to check, 1, where the antenna wire connects into the back of the radio, and 2, where the antenna wire connects to the antenna. Most likely, it would be a loose connection, snap the wire back into the connection and use electrical tape to hold it into place, or if you want to be more fancy you can use pliers or a pick to make sure the connection stays put.
