Im not quite sure what might be wrong, do you have an automatic antenna that raises up and down or do you have a solid mast antenna? That would be where i would start, once you answer that I can continue speculating on what may be wrong!

Make sure you have it pulled up all the way and then check to see if the wire hasnt become disconnected from the antenna its self, thats a possibility, or maybe there is even a small cut in the wire making it come in contact with something and turning the whole car into a giant static antenna.

hope this helps 94
