If this is a manual trans car, do you have the Y-pipe, aft of the cat? Also, did it still have working PRC struts? If yes to either, please let me know--I'd be interested.

If you could somehow zap 12V to the Ant motor so I would know if the Ant fully extends (or not), I would be interested. I have located New Power Ant on Ebay & since I'm an Old Vet on Soc Sec, I kinda gotta pinch pennies. Don't know if you'd want to do the above AND sell it for what I could pay!  Let me know. Thanks!!!!

Ok. Let me see if i can bring her back to life with a jolt.....

I took the antenna off and there are 3 wires coming from the module above the motor: Red, Black and Blue.  I put red on hot, and black on neg and nothing worked.  Maybe I did it wrong....but I got nothing....

Any suggestions?

The Black wire MUST be connected to Battery Negative!  Next, attach the RED wire to the battery Positive! The Antenna is WORKING if it extends when the GREEN wire is linked to the Battery Positve, also!

Got it!  It worked fine.  Extended all the way.  Now I don't know how to retract it.  LOL.   So, that new one is $50.00 on ebay.   How's $25 plus $5 for shipping?

Let me know.

On Ebay site, it notes mast extension should be 39". A 55" detachable cable. Can you provide the parts they show in picture and diagram? I'm guessing that IF the Black wire is again connected to Batt neg  (Red and Green wire NOT attached); THEN attach the GREEN wire to Posit THEN attach the RED wire---I think the mast should retract!!! Obviously, I could not buy if it doesn't retract!!  Can you take a picture of ALL (as above) as the Ebay diagram lays out ????  After all of your labor---- my Soc Sec income would only allow me to gamble (on a used item) a TOTAL (incl shipping) of $25. If this is too low, I would understand. Just let me know . Thanks !!!!!!!!!!

Ok, so that worked.  It retracted just fine.  It measures 31 inches fully extended.  I have no other parts except the unit itself.  No cables, nothing. Just by looking at the one on EBAY, if you don't have the wiring, you'd probably be better off getting the OEM one.

Any chance you have a power antenna switch for an 87/88 ? I just found out the bezel assy was changed from the 85/86 model and those switches won’t fit in the later assemblies.
