Skizz Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Hi all, My Antenna no longer goes up or down. Its not a big concern as I still get reception on my radio, however I was curious as to how much this problem may cost to get fixed? Thanks all!

grnsc40095 Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Skizz, He are your options: Buy a used antenna motor From Aliga a Sc vendor, send him an AOL IM for the cost of the part. Two buy a new antenna motor. http://www.clublexus.com/forums/sc400-300-...o-you-need.html http://trademotion105.reachlocal.net/partl...playCatalogid=0 http://www.parts.com/oemcatalog/index.cfm?...playCatalogid=0 Download this link it the Lexus SC300_400 Factory Workshop Manual, after download type BE-214 in search box.

Skizz Posted February 7, 2009 Author Share Posted February 7, 2009 Thanks all for the responses, How do I know if it is the motor though? I can still hear the motor working when I turn the car on and off, however, the ant just doesn't go up or down. look on Ebay they are cheap, and easy to replace.

Ratatat Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 could very well be just the antenna itself, cost me less than $20 for a replacement mast on ebay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnH Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 It's probably not the motor.. The antenna goes up and down via a toothed plastic ribbon. Replaced mine a couple years ago. You have to do some button sequence with the radio first to put the motor in "full extend" mode, then follow the directions to replace the plastic thingy. Took about a 1/2 hour. $56.. http://www.buyautoparts.com/model_category...rts+Search.y=23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
