I had the same problem with mine. I cleaned the antenna and cycled it a few times to no avail. I ended up having to get a new mast. (Found that the slightest bend will cause problems.) The part was $26.00 and took a wrench and 10 min to install. You will need to have a person handy to turn the radio on and off for you while you feed the geared spine in and out of the assembly. It was easier than anything else that I have done to this car before. Have fun :)
