Q's On my 1999 altima

this may sound stupid but some reason the power antenna on the car when i turn the engine off it doesnt go all the way down, about 1/4 of it still shows, anyone know how to fix it?


also opening the passenger door with the key, the passenger door lock seems to jam when i try to unlock it yet its fine when i lock it, is there any way i can allow it to open or is it faulty and i need to replace it?

When the antenna is completly out, clean it with a towl with WD-40 on it. Usually that helps. Try WD-40 in the lock too.

As Ruben said cleaning the antenna is usually the first place to start but I don't recommend WD-40 because it attracts alot of dirt. I like to use a towel with isopropyl alcohol to clean the mast.

Also I like to use graphite in the lock cylinder but you can loosen it up with WD-40. Just my .02
