antenna stuck

I can't search guys so i had to make this thread.

my antenna doesn't go all the way up or all the way down. It get's stuck in between and i can only push or pull it to a certain point, then it becomes very hard to move.

It can't be debris because i just cleaned it. Is it the motor? it's not bent at all.

wait, dont buy nothin yet

u said it moves but not all the way up or down, try cleaning it with a moist cloth, then turn ur radio on/off, then spray wd-40, then clean again, and turn the radio on and off again, do this several times.

sometimes little dirt particles get in there and grind things to a halt
