power antennae almost fixed.

Here's the problem, I've put the new antennae in and it won't go down all the way. It remains extended about 8". I believe a broken piece of the old plastic track remains in the motor, reducing the capacity of the retract. The new antennae does go up all the way.

The motor looks sealed. Any ideas on a fix? Tempting to cut the new plastic track by 8", but once she's cut I'm screwed if it still doesn't work. New antennae was $53.Canadian.

Thanks for the help.
Mike

p.s. - beware the carwash! duh.
