Default Need help!

Well I returned from lonch and when I switched the car off the attenna motor ran to retract the mast as always except that this time the mast did not retract and the motor ran and ran and ran... and ran.

Does anyone have a "fix" for this problem? I removed the fuse to keep from overheating the motor and killing my battery but that takes out the radio along with a host of other accessories.

Thanks in advance for any help and suggestions.

You can pull the RADIO FUSE or the CTSY/CLK FUSE for temp remidy (the latter still lets power to the ANTENNA RELAY.

Or you can unplug the ANTENNA RELAY; it's located in the LH rear of the cargo compartment on the end pannel.

It sounds like you need to replace the antenna or mast.

Thanks for the help. I had already pulled the fuse but was looking for a solution that would allow me to listen to my stereo while researching a permanent "fix" for the problem. I will unplug the relay after work.

In my case, the contacts in the relay were stuck. I hope you are as lucky. Good luck, and...

RACE ON!!!
