My antenna motor runs nonstop even while the car is off draining one battery already.

I disconnected the battery any ideas on what the cause is of this?

Mine did that freaked me out in my office parking lot, ended up being the ground for the antenna under the driver's dash.

I replaced it with a small carbon fiber-looking antenna that matched my paint.

I was not too fond of the up and down antenna when I turned on my radio anyways.

Where did you get the antenna from?
