spiffo 0 Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 Just recently my drivers electric window stopped working, pressing the button just produced a clicking noise from inside the door.I did a Forum search and the general concensus was it was likely to be the motor but could be persuaded to work by hitting it with a hammer.I held the down button and whacked the end of the motor with a hammer and lo and behold everything started working again.Is this likely to be a recurring problem ?Can only the motor be swapped or does the whole regulator need to be swapped out ?Any help gratefully received :-) Link to post Share on other sites

michael5556 247 Posted June 14, 2011 Report Share Posted June 14, 2011 Yeah it will keep going on you and have to keep hitting it but will gradually get worse and hitting it will not work in the end. Link to post Share on other sites
spiffo 0 Posted July 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 Well michael5556 you we're spot on, lasted about two days then packed up again !New motors are no longer available and second hand ones are uber rare because they all fail.Does anyone know if the motor can be rebuilt / repaired ?
