Need help identifying an antenna

We had our (new to us) MBS 2401W serviced by (name redacted for now) and they managed to destroy the TV antenna, refrigerator vent, bend the am/fm radio antenna, and broke off what appears to be a 6" antenna.


I am trying to figure out what this little 6" antenna is for. The Sirius satellite antenna is mounted flush to the roof. The AM/FM antenna is approx 2 1/2 feet long and has a spring mount on the bottom. The mystery antenna is just 6" long. It is mounted on the roof about a foot away from the TV antenna. Any suggestions?

It might be a wifi booster antenna. If you bought it used the previous owner probably took the electronics and left the antenna.

I had an epiphany this morning and checked one more thing - turns out it is the antenna for the radio in the dash for the driver - as that radio no longer receives any signal
