Default General Wiring Diagram

I need a copy of the general wiring layout for 2014 ES350 that shows the antenna runs from the rear window AM antenna, through the headliner, and to the radio. The problem is that the other day I tried the AM radio (for the first time in a long time), and just get a non-signal noise on any channel (it was working when I bought the car). I can get a very weak signal from a local station when I am near their broadcast antenna so I know the electronics are fine. All other systems work fine (USB, FM, Sat, Remote, Phone). My thought is that when the rear window "dash cam" was installed they somehow disconnected the antenna or broke the lead so I need to know where the various connectors might be so I can "go chase them down". For some reason, CARDIAGN.COM has decided not to allow me to access their website (I've looked at it various times in the past) so I can't use that avenue.

Thanks in advance.

Still nothing? OK, open to suggestions as to why AM radio would suddenly stop working but everything else (FM, Sat, USB, Phone/tablet, Aux inputs) all work perfectly well. Guesses? I'm going to pop down to an "installer" this morning to see if he can figure out the problem. I suspect that FM and AM use the same antenna (in the back glass), but not certain on that.

Problem found: interference from rear window cam to antenna wiring. Probable solution: getting a resistor installed in one of the lines (dash cam). Will advise if successful.
