power antenna problem

**sirenformula350** · 07-31-2007, 07:57 PM

My power antenna doesn't go down anymore. I don't think its the motor because I could still hear the motor working when I turn off the car. I just want to know what it could be. I haven't looked at it yet because I am a little strapped for time and cash. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Common problem. You can either replace it on the cheap (permanent mast from auto zone) or go back to the dealer and pay around $140 for a replacement power antenna. If you choose the latter you can replace it yourself in about 10 minutes.

I actually picked up a replacement antenna mast from Autozone for my car but its silver, and my car is black. It kinda upset me but I figured if someone on here didn't want to buy it from me, or trade for a new black one, I could always take it back. Let me know if you want it. Thanks

I really like the motorized antenna so I don't think I'll want the permanent one. Thanks for the offer on the antenna but I am a little strapped for cash right now so I don't think this will be something I'll be doing soon.
