Has anyone got an idea of how to put the antenna gears back in correctly to get the electrical contacts working? I took mine apart to clean and regrease everything, but I didn't look to see how it was timed up. I can probably figure it out, but I'm lazy and hope that someone else has done this already. If you have ever taken the motorized antenna apart, you will know what I'm talking about. The FSM doesn't include a break down of the internals either.

i would suggest buying a new antenna
they should'nt be that expensive and im sure it would be better than going through the trouble of rebuilding the whole thing
mine does not work either but i just listen to cd's instead of the radio

The mast by itself is $50 dollars, which is too much for me to justify paying for a piece of antenna. That's not the problem anyway, nothing is broken. I just had to clean everything up and put it all back together with some fresh lithium grease. Unfortunately, I didn't keep track of the little timing wheel (for lack of a better term for it) that stops the motor when it gets to its limit has to be set in the right location.
If no one else has messed with one, I'll do it and post some pics. After all, I don't think I've ever seen one of these cars with a functioning antenna.Comment
