Electric antenna DOA are they repairable? 200

OK, I took it apart (duh, it was easy, It just looked glued to me) and cleaned most of the "mud" out of it. It had old grease mixed with dirt/water which I am sure 90% of them have. It also had about one foot of old mast track/rope stuck in it as I expected. There was no ground wire hooked to the motor when I bought it. Only the wires in the plugs (one from antenna, one from front of car, radio).

The motor did not run, but I will run a wire from the motor to ground as shown in the Bently manual. I am thinking this is the reason it doesn't work. I assumed the green wire in the harness in trunk for antenna was a ground.

One question I do have is I cannot find anywhere in the trunk to attatch the bracket on the bottom of the motor. Where does it attatch?
