Hey guys,

My power aerial has not worked since i bought the car. I'va taken it out of the car and powered it and the motor runs but the shaft doesn't go up. I'm guessing that something inside has broken and stopped the wire being able to be pushed up.

Anyway when i took it out i noticed that the white connector wasn't even attached to it so i don't think it was getting any power, but it still worked as an antenna!?!?!? Anyway can someone god with electrics tell me how to attach it with an ignition only power supply...or better....a radio on only power supply???

I'm going to replace it to keep it electric (i don't know what everyone has against them...i like them)

Best thing to do is to buy from breakers in UK - you can find many on Ebay - just email them for the complete ariel and motor unit - mine cost me £25.
Then swap out the broken original (the internal plastic strip that runs inside the mast broke).
