Title: electric window problem
Post by: bodger001 on 08 January 2011, 21:50

i got my car a while ago but have lived with the drivers window not working but now i think its time to fix it.
ive took the door card of and when i press the switch it clicks near the motor but no movement

any ideas what it could be guys. the last owner said it worked ok untill he tried to open it when it was frosted up.

cheers

Just buy a new Motor/Regulator and replace the lot, its not hard at all mate, your motor has prob fooked or the regulator has maybe lost one of the clips, its a common issue and cheap/easy fix.. folk usually seel the 2bits as 1 part, iv change all 4 on mine

ask on here if anyone has a regulator for sale
