Another power antenna question...

About a month ago I replaced a broken antenna mast on my 97 900 SET. While trying to replace it we ran into some problems and had to partly take apart the motor. After we put it all back together and connected the wires, the motor started humming - almost like it was straining. While trying to figure out why it was doing that, it fixed itself.
Jump forward to this past week. My antenna has been working great, but the other day I started my car and it didn't go up. I turned the radio on/off a couple of times and it went up. When I arrived at my destination, the antenna went down never to come up again. Now the antenna motor is doing the same as before - humming while the car is shut off. My temporary solution has been to just pull the fuse and not deal with it.
Does this sound like the motor is finished? I'm thinking I may just grab one of the short-stick style aftermarket antennas, but I'd like to exhaust all possibilities with this first.
Thanks in advance!
