Best video I've seen so far explaining how to bypass everything with only a 9 volt battery. You made it simple. Thank you very much for your expertise. As I've seen a lot of other videos and I knew there had to be a better way. Seek and ye shall find
Thank You for showing an old mechanic a new trick, my 2003 Olds van has an issue with the drivers window. My biggest thought was how it grounded, after watching your very easy to follow steps I can now continue with testing the motor Big Thanks
Just took off the door panel of one sliding door of my van. All I get is the click. Disappointed it might be the regulator, as I just had to put a new one in the driver’s door. BUT, now I know how to check the motor easily and can move forward. Thank you. Great video.
Great video! If you can't run these tests, it's probably the motor. So buy a motor, or, just get the motor /regulator together. It usually doesn't cost that much more than just the motor.
Excellent video and very helpful! I'm getting that same click, but nothing happens on my driver's side window, when I press the down button on my 300! My regulator cable must be tangled! 👍
Used your video to test the front driver window motor in my mom’s Kia Sportage that wouldn’t go up. I connected the motor to one of my 20V tool batteries and diagnosed the problem was with the motor!! Ordered a new motor and we’re working!!
I used your 9 volt battery to bench test my motor (2002 Olds Intrigue) and both directions functioned. Got the new regulator and motor back in (old cable was tangled on the spool), and now only up works, no down!! I have power to both at the motor wiring connector! I am so baffled#! Is there any kind of limit switch or ?? *inside* the motor? This video was super helpful to me, and made alot of sense.
How do i reattach that metal freefloating piece? The cover wont reattach completely without it. Do i have to use it, and how do you keep from losing it while trying to reattach. Thanks.
Bro I use speaker wires and jumper cables really glad I found this video now because it started raining about 30 minutes ago hell is going to be raining all week I'm just glad I'm just glad I found it while it's still sprinkling my window only went down and would not come back up
Tip: if at some point you upgrade a battery which is still decent, trickle charge it, and pull it out when you need 12V power for bench testing. Years ago I replaces a small Honda Fit battery with a Miata battery for winter. The old Honda battery has been very helpful (and its tiny.)
Great explanation. My switch will not work for electric windows or mirrors on the switch, i have tried another good working switch but still nothing works.. could this still be a faulty motor? or does it suggest wiring could be the problem?
@@backyardchevy328 Checked all fuses and they are good. Guess i need to check wiring behind door panel. Looked at wiring going from door into loom and looks fine
@@tompwh do u have a multimeter or test light? Youll wanna make sure its got a 12volt signal going into the bundle and also check to verify the ground signal
My 2 cents : If you have a window that go's up about 1/2 way And stops Or sometimes all the way even with all this testing You may have a broken magnet inside the motor There is 2 One for up And one for down Power go's to the magnet And spins the shaft ...If it is broken It will still seat in its slot However under a heavy load It splits out of its slot And the power is cut in half Or the wire going to it dislodges. When you drive say over a bump in the road the cycle starts all over This is why windows get stuck going up And not down,
@@TWISTONE88 when you get at the motor remove the screws Most you can just pull the shaft (Carefully but firm) making sure you dont fling it out You want to loosen it Then pull it out You will see the 2 mags connected to 1 wire each They are super small a lad bigger than a broken pencil tip
Nice video showing the functionallity. It doesn't give answer in the case motor runs fluently, regulator goes up and down but motor won't stop when it reaches extreme positions. That means: I should sense when l have to release the switch,because if not, the motor still runs and there is no thing to stop it. And the mechanism of winding the wire scratcheds badly it!! So I mean I successfully replaced wires, but the mechanism kills it for the motor doesn't know when to stop. Does somebody know what shoud do this duty? Any idea will be appreciated.
Great Video but I have an issue with calibrating the window up function. Every time I close the window fully it re-opens about half way. It is like it is going into anti-pinch safety mode each time I fully close the window. Any suggestions??
Make sure the window switch doesn't have junk in it. If the trouble is on any of the passenger windows, pull the switch off/disconnect and try with the driver controls. If the problem clears then fix/replace switch. If problem still there, Then unplug driver side. Don't know what vehicle you are working on but unplugging the driver side might disable the system tho. It may be the motor shorting out to the auto up wire. Get the diagram for the wiring and test. I bought a cheap $50 test prob that takes the headache outta doing this work. Love that thing. Last it could be the control module failing.
Nice explain, only to alert, some models Secnic II have a encoder component and in case of replace the battery or low you need configuration the elevator like new from factory, you can se manual of use how can do it.
Thank you! I'm going to try to bench test *just* the motor. I tried with the regulator attached, and got zip, not even a spark, which I thought was odd (tested it using car battery). I hear the motors are rarely bad, but if indeed it's bad, I guess it won't hurt if I start disassembling it (take out regulator cable gear). Everybody cross their fingers that I can figure this out!
I know i’m really late, but i’m hoping u see this to answer it. My window started rolling down super slow. I cleaned the window & it was a little faster but now it just stops when i roll it up or down. I wait abt 5 mins and it will move up or down again. Is the window motor getting ready to go bad? It’s the drivers side 2003 Toyota Highlander
My man, I haven’t been able to find any info on the problem I’m having. I have a 2004 accord and the rear right window was stuck about halfway. When I’d try move it any further, there was a crunching sound. I replaced the motor and encountered the same problem before I noticed that both motors were eating the cable covers. Have you ever seen this before? Do you know what my issue might be?
My window motor and agitator work. The switches work, and there is ground and positive passing through on all wires. Why will the window still won't go up or down?
Normally that would be a problem with the regulator having a lot of play or something busted..but if everything moves smoothly and it just comes from the motor then yea just replace motor
Yea normally thats an issue with the motor going bad..so u can just replace the motor..but just give the regulator an inspection and check the cable for any fraying..if it looks good add a lil grease to the pulleys and u should be good with just the motor
Hi, got a car whose driver side window won’t go down or up with the master switch but the rest if the windows are ok with the master switch buttons. All i can hear is a single click when i push down once or pull up. Coild that ne a window motor issue?
I have done this testing, the motor is fine and I have gotten power to the connection using the switch to the motor but still won't work on it's own circuit. What's going on?
Hi my rear quater window won't open all I can hear is a click on that side everytime I try to open it what can it be? Btw the same switch controls the front which works
My 2020 Chevy does a noise when it rains it sounds like grinding noise is it the motor or regulator? The dealer ship put some sealent but it’s still doing the grinding noise plz help :(
So I bought a new regulator and motor assembly and did the test with the alligator clips and a 9volt battery and it didnt move it at all either up or down. I dont have access to a 12 volt car battery. Is it possible i just have a faulty assembly
Hey, how are you doing? I have a 2006 Ridgeline and the window regulator clip The one coming direct from to the car has no power tested the clips and nothing. I bought a new window regulator, but still won’t be able to connect to new regulator Motor due to no power Any suggestions please
I have a question, my passenger window has stopped working all the time for example if I lower my window and let go of the button half way and then try to continue lowering or raising it, it will not go up or down. The switch still clicks, sometimes It won't even go down at all. I have to close the door hard and for some reason it starts to work again temporarily, thank you!!
@MauricioMoretti. Old truck paperwork from prev owner - dealership says regulator needs replaced. Got a new switch. Same issue. Now must be motor or regulator as culprit
If the window regulator is bad, would you recommend trying to fix that and keeping the motor or would you suggest just replacing the full assembly to make it easier instead of dealing with installing the regulator with the motor?
Depends on the age of the vehicle..but normally if its older ill go with replacing the whole assembly with the motor to avoid having to do it again, they also tend to come with warranty when bought as a unit
Thank you for this. I am looking to replace my passenger window motor in my '02 Firehawk. Do you have a video showing this, or do you recommend someone else's that is as clear and easy to understand as the videos you make?
Can you make a video showing how to put the cable back on? I have tried several times and even with the spool into the motor and the springs compressed, there is not enough slack to fit it around the top white guides and keep the black guides in place. @@backyardchevy328
i've tried this on my astra with a 9v battery and no luck, will try tomorrow with a 12v battery. I used multimeter to on the wire coming from the switch and no power is coming from pin 4 . When I test on a working door, pin 4 lights up
I hear a clicking noise from inside my passenger door and the window isn’t working so I’m pretty sure it’s either the motor or regulator. However the switch is also stuck from my driver side. What should I do first?
@backyard chevy hey I just subscribed I like ur style. 👍🏼 My 04 Chevy Avalanche 1500 Z71 passenger window doesn’t work. Only hear a little click sound when button pushed. Could I just replace the motor or the whole kit which is around $100 but I think just the motor is only about $50
Thank you🙂 really appreciate it...yea u can just replace the motor but if it makes a click it can mean that the regulator cable might be tangled and u might have to replace the regulator..but i would check it out once its out
I thought my regulator was bad so I bought a new motor and regulator combined unit my passenger side window is stuck down I installed the new motor and regulator and the window came down and locked again I bench tested the motor and the motor only turns One Direction whether or not I push the window switch down or up do you have any idea why this is the case please help
Hi, I’m currently trying to figure out if my regulator or motor is bad. I followed the video and hooked up the motor to a 9V battery and nothing happened when I connected the positive to positive and negative to negative but when I switched them on the battery ( positive to negative and negative to positive) it started to click. Do you have any idea if that is indicating if it’s the motor that is bad? No movement, just clicked.
@@nate2443601 usually a click means that the regulator might be seized where it wont allow the motor to move it, possibly cable all tangled up if cable driven..if u can separate em and try the motor off the regulator it probably will work that way
Well that means ur solenoids are working fine..but theres an issue with the power going to the door lock/window switches..could be fuses/relays but since theyre both separate fuses for each system..it would of had to have blown out both..could be the switch assembly..or wiring
My window makes noise like it is trying to go down, but one doesn’t move and the other moves like an inch down. I don’t know what I should replace or go about it because I feel like the motor sounds strong . But I can’t see both regulators messing up at the same time when the were working good .
Normally when they sound jammed up and move a little like that its cause the window regulator cable got tangled up on the roll..yea it would be odd for both of em to go bad together but i have seen cases where someone tried to break in and pull the window down and it messed up the window motor gear..best way to tell thought is testing em
@@backyardchevy328 My toyota aygo 2009 nearside window is not working and i was watching some video to learn some thing and I really appreciate your demonstration and teaching method. Thank you so much for such great job.
Yea those are pretty confusing..they have one wire which is ground(black)..another which is short drop which lowers window before closing it which is light green and black..the battery which is violet and yellow...white black which is up..violet light green which is auto feature..yellow which is down..red with light blue which is acc signal..and lastly goc..but it still should work on same basis

My window makes noise like it is trying to go down, but one doesn’t move and the other moves like an inch down. I don’t know what I should replace or go about it because I feel like the motor sounds strong . But I can’t see both regulators messing up at the same time when the were working good .
Normally when they sound jammed up and move a little like that its cause the window regulator cable got tangled up on the roll..yea it would be odd for both of em to go bad together but i have seen cases where someone tried to break in and pull the window down and it messed up the window motor gear..best way to tell thought is testing em

great information....
How do I do this procedure on a 06 mustang which the motor has an 8 pin connector
Yea those are pretty confusing..they have one wire which is ground(black)..another which is short drop which lowers window before closing it which is light green and black..the battery which is violet and yellow...white black which is up..violet light green which is auto feature..yellow which is down..red with light blue which is acc signal..and lastly goc..but it still should work on same basis
@@backyardchevy328 thank you
