Window motor removal-how?
I took the door panel off and took the door control module off. The window motor is VERY hot. And since the window relay is clicking, I think the motor is stuck. How do you remove the window motor? I have searched and searched to no avail.
Thanks

Fixed! I kept tapping on the motor from the inside of the door after the motor had cooled down. The motor is just sticking. I hardly ever use the passenger side window.

If it stuck once, it will probably do it again.
To remove the motor, you have to remove the window regulator assembly, which involves removing the side glass, and removing the drive rails and motor through the large opening at the rear of the door.
The opening is covered by a plastic panel with adhesive.

Once you remove the plastic piece that is held by adhesive, you'll also have to remove the speaker. Then remove the two brass colored window clamp bolts. Remove the window (carefulley). The window regulator is attached two the door with two screws/nuts at the top of the door (near the window) and one at the bottom rear. The motor is connected to the door with 3 nuts/screws. Good luck

Mine does the same thing if I go an extended period of time without using it. Just "exercise" it regularly and it won't stick. I'm curious about the "how to" on the motor replacment as well.
