Window stuck down

It could be a stripped nylon gear. Replace it with a brass gear. On Ebay all the time. If it is the motor and you can't find a stock replacement one and want a better solution, then you can go to an electrical parts store and get a 12v universal reversible motor. The one I used had the same bolt pattern (identicle) but the shaft was about 1" too long. I just cut it down. The shaft was also the exact same size so the rubber connector fit right on, even over the flattened part of the shaft. I bought mine at a place called Auto Marine Electric, but that is in canada and may not be in the US. Never hurts to ask. (Silly question also: you checked the fuse? - fuse connection?)

Check to ensure the wires are connected. Did you push in on the emergency crank. It has to engage to work. Stick a large phillips head in and try to engage the gear.

Panterapatt - Yeah I already tried pushing in on the plastic emergency crank and turning it with Phillips screwdriver, but it just cracked in two.

72panterasteve - In addition to replace the window switch, I did check the fuse. I have bought the Taurus motors from O'Reillys to do the conversion discussed on Pantera Place website. Issue I am dealing with is since the window regulator (lift arm) is in the fully down position, the window lift arm attachment screw you need to remove to be able to remove the regulator is sitting in the bottom of the door well and I can't get a screw driver in there to remove the screw.

So wondering if anyone has an idea how I can get the regulator up enough to access that screw or how else to get motor out given my predicament.

Try removing the four bolts that hold the regulator to the door and see if you can rotate the assembly enough to reach the screw or the two bolts that hold the glass to the channel.

Forestg is right on the money! That has worked for me before with almost the same situation.

Thanks forest I will give that a try this weekend. Guessing I may have been too conservative in what I was doing. Will let you know if that works.
