Which fuse controls the antenna motor?

I'm trying to figure out if my motor is shot or if a fuse is blown. since the fuse is the easiest to check, which one is it? Is there a "reset" button on the motor or anything?

I have a feeling that it's not a fuse though. Everything else works just fine on the car. I suppose it's possible that it has it's own fuse though...

I believe it's daisy chained to the radio fuse. But don't quote me, though.

Thanks

It's not too bad. You just have to remove the carpet surrounding the right side of the trunk. I think there's about 4 plastic pop thingies that you have to pry out. after that, 3 bolts (metric 10, I believe) to get the jack holder out and you can get right to the motor. Just be sure to not drop the bolts from the jack. They might be hard to get without a magnet.

I think I'm going to try to do that. Before I take the motor completly out, I'll put the tester on it and see if it is even getting power and take it from there.
