3332, Power Antenna Posted by 1great98, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
Does anyone know how to fix one. Mine is stuck in the up position and it won't go down. It used to go down when i shut off my car or when I was listening to cd's and the only time it was up was when I was listening to the radio, but now it just stays up. Thanks

maybe the motor is just broken, i doubt its the fuse b.c when my fuse blew, i think other things like my HU didn't work either..

Do you still have the factory radio in there or have you replaced it? If you put in an aftermarket one that has RDS on it, then check you TI Info setting. If it is set to on then the antenae will always stay up to get the updates as they come in.

Mine is stuck in the up position too. There's a little track inside the antenna that the motor uses to pull it down. It probably slipped off the track. I haven't taken mine out yet to look at it, so I don't know if it's fixable, or if we need to buy a new one.

Motor is probably shot. They're easy to replace. I bought one at Discount Auto Parts to replace my ugly RS one. Wasn't expensive. Here's a link to my old local DSM board where I talked about it.

Is it possible to replace my non power antenna with a power one? Is it expensive?
