Removal & Installation: Motor: Removal

CAUTION: Prior to motor removal, ensure that the regulator arm is in a fixed position to prevent counterbalance spring unwind.
  1. Raise the window to the full-up position, if possible. If the glass cannot be raised and is in a partially down position, it must be supported so that it will not fall into the door well during motor removal.
  2. Disconnect battery ground cable.
  3. Remove door trim panel and watershield. See DOOR TRIM  .
  4. Disconnect window motor connector. See Figure .
  5. Position the motor wiring harness out of the way. Using a 19mm (3/4 inch) hole saw with a 1/4-inch pilot, drill three holes at the existing drill dimples located on the door inner panel adjacent to the motor.
  6. Remove the three window motor retaining screws and disengage the motor and drive assembly from the regulator quadrant gear.
