You have mail. I don't have everything, but what I do have is claimed to solve 90% of all problems...

I'm sure page62 has the part I used to fix mine. The motor worked, but the nylon cable snaped. Ordered a repair kit for mine from Eckler's and within 3 hours it was up (and down) running again.
Funny, the previous 2 owners took it to the dealer (didn't have a clue) and even pruchased a new mast antenna to replace it (sure glad they didn't do that!).
Anyone in need of a new mast antenna kit (it has everything), let me know - I'll sell it to you cheap , (I would rather give it a good home, then to toss it in the trash). It's a direct replacement for C3's.

Shawn, the antenna worked fine, car parked for about 2 years, and when I went to start it the antenna motor, was running and would not stop, with radio on or off, I had to disconnect the relay. I am almost certain the the cable must have broken, but may have broken other parts, limit switch, maybe......strange, the radio was off when parked.....

I will try to find the GM kit and if I can't, I contacted Page 62 and will start with the cable.

Thanks.
