I'm > not sure if your year model is one of those. Someone else on this? I've had the antenna motor stay "on" because the mast hadn't retracted fully (mechanically stuck/gunked up). The way I found the problem was to take out one fuse at a time. My car was pulling enough current to produce a very small, barely visible spark when the battery (ground) cable was touched to the battery terminal, when this load was present. More than 2 amps, so I couldn't test it with a multitester... So, go spark-level troubleshooting. First, see if you can see/hear a tiny (or larger) spark when making the contact - if so, that's your indicator of a large current. Pull one fuse at a time, check for the spark, if it doesn't change put that fuse in, go to the next. You'll *probably* find it that way, if not, it's time to start playing with relays. Give the fuse/spark test a try, and let us know what you find. Dave Hinz
