[erics_bruisers]

Determine where there is and isn't power. At the switch, at the motor, etc.

Once I rolled down the window (not on the 80) at the carwash, inserted $7 for the grandaddy wash, as I started pulling forward the window stopped half way up. Always good if they break in the up position.

yup -- figgered since neither switch works, it's at the motor --

-- would like to switch out all 4 motors for newbies, quite honestly --

E -

After you have a look at the price on a new window motor, you will sing a very different tune. I just had to replace one on a Corolla. Very $$$.

BTW, there is a good troubleshooting guide in FSM to pinpoint window motor problems if you cannot figure it out with the first few obvious steps.

Good luck with it!

Cheers, R -

I wouldn't mind switching out the front two either. Bet C-Dan will tell us they're spendy.

... around $175 each -- :|

Eric - I just had this happen on my 92" the roller on the motor popped out of the window track because the track slid, i had to pull the door panel and hook up power to the motor and slide the track back over, Brad.

I've always cracked the cases and cleaned the armatures to get them to go. This is on many other DC motors some in auto applications, just haven't done it on a Toyota yet.
