I need to replace my power antenna motor. Understand it is behind the left front tire in the fender...does anyone have a tech article or pics of what I'm in for?

 

Once you remove the plastic inner fender skirt, you will see the antenna just behind the fender. I had to replace my antenna (not power) and it was a little bit of a pain but I imagine the power is easier.

Just remove the fender skirt, and take a look. I believe there is a bracket that holds the power antenna on, and the top of it may just be attached to the fender with a nut of some sort.

Sorry, I don't have any pictures or any links to any type of technical article,s but I hope that helps.

 

Is the antenna down? Or is it stuck up?

Basically you need to remove the nut from the top outside of the fender with either a power antenna tool ($10 at Autozone) or needle nose pliers. Then there is a bracket that needs to be removed from the antenna motor. Remove the electrical connector then it will slide out of the fender.

 

thanks for the comments. the antenna is stuck up...does that change how it is removed?

 

depends on if your fixing it or replacing it.

replacing it, just snap it off

Fixing it, no clue
