i'm sorry to inform you but u hav fried ur resisters
a common mistake of those new to xmods and the reason this happend is cuz you let a battery touch the antenna :nodno: :uhoh:

or you can buy a new receiver here:

and use the other one and try stuff on it.

Or if your warrenty is still good, turn it in to radio **** and get a new one.

P.S. what car do you have?

I did the same thing to my car, so the reason why this happened was because my 6th cell touched the anttena?
