thats exactly what mine does. and sometimes it wont go down by itself either, it'll just make that noise... it needs a little push when that happens
i took it out to try and figure out the problem and theres a little piece of the end missing from the plastic thing that pulls it down get a new one or live with it...theres not much else you can do. im just going to disconnect the motor [one of these days] so it stays down, i never liked that huge thing sticking up all the time anyway hope that helped
