My Winegard Motorized Sensar Antenna Model MA1000W needs to be repaired. I need a new lift motor and perhaps a few other parts.Winegard only sells this antenna to RV manufacturers, OEM only, so can’t get a replacement or parts from them.Does anyone out there have one hanging around and is willing to sell it or sell the internal parts?I’ve been calling RV Used Parts folks but no luck yet.Anyone out there that can help or share information on where to get parts or a replacement antenna?

Been there & done that. They don't have the motorized antenna. They only have the hand crank antenna. But thanks for your suggestion.

Have you tried calling the manufacturer of your RV?Bruce

I would contact Winegard directlyWinegard

Yes I have contacted my RV Manufacturer. They don't have repair parts but will sell me a new antenna for $475.I have been working directly with the Winegard Tech folks. They can't sell me parts.

Winegard should be able to sell you the parts through your local RV dealer.

This should be a wakeup call for anyone contemplating purchase from them. Sorry they are holding you hostage.

Contacted Winegard about having Dealer ordering parts for me, answer was "NO". Only way to fix it was to send antenna into their repair facility. Who knows how long that would take plus the holes in the roof stay exposed until they return it to me. No thanks.

Finally located a replacement antenna at 1/3 the cost quoted to me by my RV manufacturer.

Antenna has been sitting in this guys inventory for two years, still in the original box. Should be here next week. Hope it all works out.

Thanks to all who responded with suggestions.
