Antenna Mast Installation Gone Awry

Need help/ideas from experienced installer. Bought new mast. Tried 10 step installation procedure outlined on a posting here. As will sometimes happen, the dis-assembly went much better than attempted re-assembly. Old drive cable came out in one piece, but cannot get new drive cable to feed. Removed gear housing cap and could not discern any jams. With cap off, I threaded the new cable to give it a good start. Still, when I turn the radio off, the switch device (in a small black box mounted on antenna tube) makes a buzzing noise, but the motor doesn't drive the gears. Electrical connections from switch to motor seem OK. Before I messed with it, the motor was working as the mast would partly extend and retract. If I can get past this problem, is there anything to do to make sure the drain is "routed properly" other than to point it downwards ? Thanks in advance.
