The cable inside the antenna is probably broke. If it were hooked up, the motor would run all of the time (not a good thing). See if there is a connector that is unconnected near the antenna under the hood. Broken antennas are very common with our cars. I once bought a NOS antenna off Ebay. Was sitting in the box for 20 years. It went up once, down once, then broke.
