Erection Problems....

My Aerial decided to stay in the upright position yesterday and is now making a groaning noise when I turn the radio off :(

 

I have used the search button to see the best replacement but couldnt find an answer.

 

Is there a way to get the aerial back down again if I disconnect it because I dont normally use it so will be happy if it stays in the down position or do I need a new one?

 

I would be happy with a direct replacement stubby job If I could find one that fits without modification :(

 

Thanks

 

Gaz :)

The motor is louder than normal tho mate, Will try what you suggested tho thanks.

 

What bits do I grease up :blink:

 

the actual arial, get some wd40 on it from top to bottom, leave it for a few minutes and then try it. if that doesnt work its the motor id guess.

Sounds like you definetly need a new one mate, as mine went exactly the same. Stayed up and a horrid whirring/grinding noise when i turned the stereo on. Theres a white plastic piece full of teeth, its most likely snapped. I suspect your motor will be fine (mine was) you just need a new mast and plastic piece with teeth that go with it, got mine from Steve Manley for about £30

 

See this thread for how to do it
