The antenna connection, for your 2000 Ford Taurus, is on the back of the radio. The antenna cable goes from the radio to the connection in the windshield.
Did you disconnect the antenna lead?
on the 2006 models of the ford fusion. the radio antenna is embedded in the back glass with the rear defrosters. It's important to know that when installing aftermarket radio you should connect pin 5 on the radio harness to a switched 12v source. If not done this will cause problems with radio reception! pin 5 is the antenna's booster power wire and was originally powered off of the stock radio but the aftermarket radios do no supply this power source. I reccommend using a relay and the remote antenna wire and 12v constant wires off the new radio harness to make this connection! this will allow the the remote wire to switch the relay on and off when the radio powers on, and connect the the tapped 12v constant wire to the antenna booster power! thats how i would do it!
Unscrew it.
The antenna location on a 2000 Ford Expedition is going to vary depending on the type of radio installed. If XM Radio is available, the antenna will be a very small square on the back roof of the vehicle. If the radio is normal, the antenna is located on the side of a rear, driver's side window.

To replace the radio in a Ford Festiva, start by disconnecting the car battery to ensure safety. Remove the trim panel around the radio using a flathead screwdriver or trim tool, then unscrew and slide out the old radio. Disconnect the wiring harness and antenna cable from the back of the radio. Finally, connect the new radio's wiring harness and antenna, secure it in place, and reattach the trim panel before reconnecting the battery.

I have the same problem, except I have a cassette player and not a CD player. I believe the answer is the antenna has come loose from the radio but I do not know how to check it.
