Window just stopped going down or up. Cleaned up switch with electrical parts cleaner. Tested power window motor connecter
at motor and there is power. When I tested power window motor
nothing happens. Put two wires on connectors on motor to positive
of battery and ground motor to battery ground, test light comes
on but motor does not move or make any sounds.
Is motor shot? I think I will try to take motor apart, in the meantime
anybody got any suggestions? TIA
you only put power to one trminal at a time and grounf the motor case. One term is UP and the other one is DOWN. If it still doesn't do anything then it might be dead
Nevermind, I think I got it. I opened the motor and sprayed a bunch
of electrical parts cleaner in there. I also cleaned the connector that
meet the plug. Put power to motor again and it started to turn.
This should work for awhile, hopefully. Thanks for the moral support and
ideas in the archives.
