Where is the antenna relay on a 76 Cadillac?

The location of the antenna relay on a 1976 Cadillac depends on the specific model and whether it has an electric or manual antenna. There isn't one single, universal location. It's likely to be found either in:

* The under-dash fuse panel: This is the most common location for relays in many vehicles. Check the fuse panel's diagram to see if an antenna relay is listed and its corresponding position.

* The trunk (boot): Some Cadillacs might have the relay located in the trunk, especially if the antenna mechanism is located there.

* The radio itself: In some cases, especially if it's a simpler system, the relay functionality might be integrated within the radio unit itself.

To find it:

1. Consult your owner's manual: This is the best starting point. It should have a fuse/relay panel diagram.

2. Check the fuse panel diagram: Even without the manual, the fuse panel usually has a diagram showing what each position is for. Look for "Antenna," "Power Antenna," or a similar label.

3. Visually inspect the wiring: Trace the wiring from the antenna motor to see where it might connect to a relay.

Without knowing the exact model of your 1976 Cadillac (Coupe deVille, Fleetwood, Seville, etc.), it's impossible to give a more precise location.
