Probably going to need the radio system scanned for trouble codes to get some direction. Requires an enhanced scan tool. The radio connects to the satellite antenna and the sat module is built into the radio.

I've looked it up and it states that the trouble is most likely because of the antenna wire which should be locate behind drivers a pillar trim, but I cant figure out where the hell it is, any help ?

There appears to be two sat antennas. One is located above the left front headliner. The cable runs up the driver's A pillar. The other antenna is located above the rear headliner. Both antenna cables appear to be straight runs from the radio. Any recent work done prior to your issue?

yes I did try to take down the rear dvd players because there was a real annoying squeaking coming from it, so maybe I messed up the wire,
didn't seem to go into failure until a few days after I took the dvd players down
