Hmm... I have a 2010, a 2011 and two 2012's that are upgraded to SSD's, so I know that it should not damage or effect the wireless chip.


The only thing I can think of, is that one of the snap-on antenna cables is loose or pinched and grounding somewhere. Or that the ribbon cable is not fully or correctly seated.
