folks and window motors >:(


Recommended Posts

right, little rant here,



i am fed up seeing wants for window motors when all it takes is some wd40 and a good wire brush.



9 times out of 10 the window slows down, and then eventually stops working.



(this is me coming from my experience)



taking the door card off i plugged the window switch back in and found the motor was wanting to turn, but nothing going up or down. so i carried on to take the window motor apart, to find the window runner looked like i had dragged it out of the bottom of the ocean and the little gear from the motor looked like its twin, lol.

so with a wire brush, plenty of wd40 and then some grease

slapped a load of copper grease in the runner, put it all back together and its still running sweet as a nut.



im sorry if the motor has actually packed in, but atleast try to look at the problem before spending money and a part that can be revived and cost nothing but time to sort.



and i know i asked for a window motor, but i didnt get it because i had no money, so thats why i stripped it.



rant over (and sorry if not in the rite section)
