window motor

[apm285]

Hi guys,

My window has been playing up for the past 2 weeks.

At first it didn't want to open just heard a clicking sound. Then all of a sudden it started working. After that it would wind up then automatically wind down. Then another day it was really struggling to wind up you could hear the motor slowly winding the window up. Today it wouldn't even go down??

Anyway i bought a motor for it to be installed. What do you guys think?

What actually goes on the motor for this to happen? Does water get to it?

I heard its quite a common problem.

Cheers

Probably the only problem with it, It's made in China.

very very common problem...did at least one of these a day

[TITO22]

Yes, very common. I've heard that window motors on G's go out often. Both sides on mine have been replaced.

Thanks for your help guys.

Hi InfinitiTech, when my auto electrician installes the new window motor will he still have to re-callibrate the motor and reset it once it is installed?

Yea mine has been playing up for the past 2 weeks it annoys me. You know when you really like something and you want to it be perfect thats me i always think about it LOL.

I received my window motor, i didn;t know that the regulator was combined with the motor. I can't seem to find the reset switch.

I pressed this black looking pointy thing covered in rubber but it doesn't make a clicking noise like a button would normally do.

Ahh. I didnt see this post earlier today. Same deal here. Just a click click when I try to operate the pass window. Is the motor a cheap item to diy. I really dont want to take it in even though it is under warrenty. Thanks Wes

Hi, can you email that door panel removal procedure to me also?Greatly appreciated! Also the programming procedure for the replacement motor, if possible. It's a 2003 if that matters. Thanks!

OK, HOW DO YOU REPROGRAM THE MOTOR? DO YOU MASH THE BLACK RUBBERY BUTTON ON THE MOTOR? GIVE IT TO ME AS SIMPLE AS YOU CAN!! BY THE WAY, THANKS FOR ALL THE INFO/HELP!!! THIS CLUB RULES!!

Don't know about infinitis but on Lexus's u have to re-time the motors and regulators for the jam protection. It's not for someone who isn't mechanically inclined.
