This is the second time my window motor has pooped out.

Anyone have an extra driver side window motor? How much are the new ones? Mine just died permanently, I can't even fix it because the little spring loaded contact points inside the motor are ground down to nothing. I spent 4 hours trying to fix it, and can't.... waste of my day.

 

i feel you on that... kragen has reman for about $100 with core.

 

what about the car in your garage?

 

Instead of just swapping it, I decided to clean the working one on the back yard... needless to say, when trying to push the spring loaded contact points back to re-insert the magnetic spindle thing, I broke one side, and can't get the damn spindle back in. So I now have 1 broken useless driver side motor, and 1 possibly repairable driver side motor.

 

ouch fail! sorry to hear..

 

that sucks. I thought my passenger motor went out yesterday, but I was able to raise the window back up by hitting the door slightly. Good luck with yours and let us know if the kragen core exchange works good or not...

 

Hitting the door worked for about a week, then It just didn't do anything, even when I punched the door haha... Kragen was $175 :\ $150 w/ core exchange. Nissan wanted $270....

Anyone good at putting the motor back together past those two spring loaded contact points? If so... I'd appreciate it, save me a bit of $$$!

 

the motors are made in the philippines take it there they could fix it
