Help!! Passenger side Window Issues

I have replaced the regulator, but I am still getting the clicking sound. What should I do next? What volts should the motor recieve? I am only getting 4.5 volts from the plug that goes into the motor.

Most likely you have a failed relay inside of the door control module. Here's a link with some information. Yes, you can replace the relay.

Thanks dgrant3830.

Is there anyone in Denver that has experience with changing the relies in the DCM? I am afraid I will screw it up.

There was a forum vendor that did repair service on these. I forgot who it was. You can just mail them your module, and they will put new relays in for you.

I just talked to the StealerShip, and they said if I replace the Passenger DCM, I have to replace both of them. Is that true?

If you need to order the relays, you can go to www.alliedelec.com, and the stock # is 70158534 part number # JSM1-12V-5.

Btw, the Stealership told me $500 each for the DCM. And they would give me the part number.

Regulator fixed mine, but I did have to change the relays for door lock and unlock. Bought mine from Digikey. $1.72 each. $4 vs $400. It was a pain to trim off silicone coating and unsolder, but was worth the savings.
