Power Windows are so sloooooowwwwwa!

GTE89 · 12-10-2006, 12:05 AM

My PW motors must be on there last leg! Both sides are extremely slow and one side I have had to assist when rolling it up. Are these rebuildable? Or should I just look for replacments on Ebay?

If it were mine (which it was 3 yrs ago), I would remove the door panel and, using a 1" paint brush and brake spray cleaner, clean out all the rollers and tracks for the window.

Then I'd let it all dry (blow out with an air gun) out for a while.

Then, using a finger or very small brush, I'd apply some of that Synthetic Brake Caliper Grease (Sta-Lube) to all the tracks and rollers and rub places.

***Still working great***

Has anyone tried to rebuild the window motors? I guess if the clean and lube doesnt work I try that before buying new ones.

You might as well line up new motors, ready to buy, just in case.
