hodge Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Can this be done. I've got the door off and need to remove the handle but the window must be up to do it. Cheers John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mwilkinson Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Done this a few times when my car was being rebuilt following my respray. You will need to remove the door card and access the motor which drives the window. It is held on with three small bolts which go to three small nuts. They have a phillips head on them. Once these are removed the motor unit will drop down and the window can than be moved up and down manually. Once up or down, reinstall the motor to hold it in place. Once powered up again the motor will be fine. Just don't loose the nuts and bolts. The main motor is only held into the housing by the magnets of the shaft. Don't worry if this comes out, just place it back inside the casing. Just don't let it get dirty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwilkinson Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 The motor is the long black item with the Toyota writing on it. You can see two of the bolts at the base of the motor. There is one other in the middle at the rear. SIMPLES!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ibrar Jabbar Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 No need to remove motor, all you need is is 12V+ and Earth direct of your battery connected to the motor plug (grey as in picture above). The 12V & earth connected one way will wind the window down and switched the other way will send it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
