help fixing window motor???
ok so my window motor went out like im sure everyones does eventually. im kind of mad bc my car has 31k on it. anyway.. so it feels like it just ran out of juice rather than break. Are new motors expensive or is there an easy fix like the headlight motor?

well.. they are not that hard to fix.. autozone has a window motor w/ a lifetime waranty for a decent price.. less than it was either like 75.. or 130.. i dont remember.. but anyway, there is a temporary thing you can do to make it work for a little while.. it involes some splicing and stuff.. but i would just get a new motor.

i had to fix mine three times. so make sure you do get one with the warranty. if you have sausage fingers like me it might suck when you try to screw the motor back in. if you have a midgit mechanic friend get him to do it...
