If you hear the motor spinning, but the mast is not moving, the mast is broken, and will need to be replaced. Not a hard job, but time consuming.
With the radio unplugged, it prolly signals the antenna to go down. Ya need to unplug the antenna until you get it repaired.

New cable comes attached to the mast and is very easy to install. For sure put a male/female spade wire connector on when you reinstall. This way when its breaks again.....like mine did you can crawl under and easily dis connected the motor so it does not just sit there and run.
