Electric window motor replacement
Posted: Fri Mar 13, 2026 1:35 pm
Hi all searched for this but failed to see an answer
Passenger side window has packed up
Not the switch or the driver side deactivation switch
There is power at the switch and motor
Small click / clunk at motor when operating switch and it gets hot.
So I guess the motor has ceased?
Can you just replace the motor or do you replace the whole mechanism?
It seems a bit of a pig to access, assume the whole thing will slide out.
Do you have to take the whole thing out either way if even if you are replacing just the motor ?
Will the window drop down down when removed so should be wedged?
Welcome any thoughts
Thanks
Will
