  • Window motors going bad?Help please

    Not sure if its both of them or not.
    My passenger side wouldn't go up and that was using both switches driver and passenger. Took the connections off, cleaned them up and put it back on, not much better. Just a go up when I feel like it. However the drivers side was acting up after i plugged them back.
    Can both motors be failing or is it something else, fuse maybe?

    I saw the window motor install on here if I need to swap them out.
    Any suggestions?

      I changed my passenger side motor last summer. Oh my if you never did it before your in for it. Everything in the door is sharp and I got all cut up, once you figure out how to do it its not bad.

        When you did it, did you use those online instructions that
        are on here?
        It doesn't look easy, but its not rocket science either. I just dont know if I need to do it. With both of them acting up, its something else maybe...?

              Go to Advance. Better prices than JokerZone. Plus, if AutoZone is cheaper, Advance will beat their price by 10%. I just quit my job there, but it's still worth the money you save.

                I already bought it. I'm 3 hours into this install and still haven't
                got the motor out yet. Both drills died and I'm waiting to
                for them to recharge. I got 2 rivets drilled, waiting to do the 3rd.

                    Trying to align that new motor on is a *****!! Then the new bracket that comes with it(from Autozone) What the hell I was suppose to do with that, I don't know. The bracket was still attached in their somehow and I could get the holes to line up in the right spots for me to screw them in. I was glad I at least attempted, but sorry to say my T/A is not done and feel bad that after 6 hours I couldn't finish it.
                    It goes to the dealer on Monday morning. Hopefully it will only be an hour and a half labor.

                        Last summer I had my passenger side window die on me, So u go to your Auto supply store pick up a new one and then take the old one back and get some cash for it. I had a friend my mine put in the motor for me then payed him off with some beers hahaha. The window motor job wont be a easy job, Just to let u know.

                            Most of us don't have your, um features, lol. Might cost us more than some beers. lol.

                            So funny story, I come out from work today and my driver window won't go up or down, cruise wouldn't work till about halfway home either. Window still won't work, going to beat on it now.

                              I just went to Grand Pontiac. They finished it
                              for an hour and a half labor.
