Hello, I'm the dude that wrote that, I did it as part of some doco to install an aftermarket stereo in the cressida. The reason for the strange wiring is unknown to me, If the radio didn't want the antenna up then all it had to do was to lower the voltage of one particular wire. There was one "remote" wire on the antenna, but the head unit seems to wire a few extra wires to control some part of the amplifier unit in the antenna. Unless you have the patience to wire up a relay or two, to me it was cheaper to buy a 30 dollar auto antenna unit. Also you dont blow anything up this way.
Check my website out for the full doco if thats where you got it.
The antenna is the difficult part of doing a stereo in the cressida because of this, if you are desperate to get the factory unit working, go to a stereo installer. They should be able to help you.
