Lowering Cell Antenna

I have a 98 S600 and the cell phone antenna is always up. The dealer said that most likely someone plugged in a cell phone, then pulled it out without turning it off, so the antenna is stuck in the extended position.

Does anyone know of a way to lower the antenna? Is there some way to short pins 1&2 or something that will cause the antenna to lower?

THanks,
-Vic

RE: Lowering Cell Antenna

I would check power to the antenna, or the motor is defective. If the ignition is turned off the antenna retracts. You can always open it up retract it and disconnect the power
