Sorry it took so long to get back. Traveltek you were correct. I am not really aware of what to call this piece, spool of some sort that is magnetic which spends when a current is sent to it to retract or raise the antenna. I had to disassemble the motor to remove a peace of the broken ant, when re-assembling the antenna I attached this part backwards, which reversed the current. Easy fix just flip the piece around and problem solved.
