[DeTomaso] Window motor

[mark skwarek]

Thanks for the advice.  It turned to be a bad switch. I will do the window motors later. Right now I'm trying to get ready for Pocono in 2 weeks with a limited am't of time available to me due to family commitments. Last on the list are my brakes..

Mark, I agree with Julian. Since you have to get to the motor to replace a
gear, you might as well replace the motor with a Taurus window motor for
about $12, increase reliability, no more gears, less amp draw, & zippy
window speed.

Its most likely the window motor plastic gear broken, so pull the window
regulator and if so obtain brass replacement gears for both windows from a
vendor or you could take the opportunity to make the modification to Taurus
or Aerostar motors.
