Having trouble with my antenna going down. Sometimes it works fine and other times I can close my door hard or tap on my quarter panel and it will go down. Any help appreciated.
 
I would guess not the wiring, as you state a solid blow to the body is what activates it. The wiring just hangs there and would or should not respond to a hit. The antenna unit is hooked to the body thus will sense the shock, and I'm thinking the motor may have a dead spot in it and needs that little jar to get it turning. Could be just dirty armature where the brushes make contact. Here's a pic of my 82 that had a broken mast cable that I repaired, the antenna assembly is probably close to what yours is just for reference.
