also I noticed I had an Nissan Antenna Adapter that wasnt installed could this also be causing the problem?

The stock antenna part with the snap tab thing plugs into one side of the adapter and the other side (the metal side) of the adapter plugs into usually the right side (as your looking at the face of the radio) of the radio. Its pretty straightforward and its real easy once you see all of it.

o thats easy too u connect the wire for the power ant. from the radio harness to the cars harness or the adapter harness if you have one, like piker said it should be blue with a white stripe you just twist them together tightly and wrap in electrical tape.
