I'm not sure if i spelled antennae right...anyways..it wont extend fully sometimes and sometimes it won't return all the way when the radio/car is off. Is there a way to grease it? anything special to know? I can get it to extend fully if i turn the radio on and off a couple times. and vice versa for returning. thanks guys

ps: it is not bent or warped

 

tread was just here a few days ago. Your cable that winds it down is broken.

 

can u just replace the power antenna with a regular one?

 

Yeah. You just don't hook up the wiring for the electric motor. My antenna pissed me off years ago. So I bent the stupid thing. Now I'm having a fun time to get it to come all the way down. So I'm going to shave it one of these days.

 

You can get a new antennae mast from nissan, I think its around 30$ or so. verry common.

 

search ebay for antenna mast, you can usually find on for a few (15) bucks

 

same thing happens to mine, not bent, it is greased, but it will not go down all the way, and when it does, it makes a weird noise. now thsts the cable too right?

 

yup, thats the nylon zipper cord that broke.

 

Here's how to fix the antenna. I've got the same problem, but I'm too lazy to fix it

 

ok, thank you alot, ill do it tomorrow

 

if you get a mast at nissan it will cost you 50 bucks,

i would say go for the ebay thing,

unless your willing to spend 50 bucks,

 

antennae is for bugs... antenna for cars and other gizmos. I like antennae better though. It should be universal.

"Jeeves, lower the antennae..."
