Looks like the cable mechanism broke. All kinds of mess inside. Bits of plastic where shooting all over the place when I started getting rough with the window. So I sniped a thin cable so I can push the window all the way up. I was going to wood stick the window closed, but I saw a hole near the carriage. I'd rather have used bailing wire, but all I have currently is fencing wire, so zip ties it is. It's going to get fixed proper in the spring, the nylon shouldn't die before then.
I don't think the motor burned out, so I will have a nice motor for projects when I replace the power window mechanism. Going to need the whole thing, carriage and all I think. Luckily I've a few more years before they start crushing the model year immediately, so I hopefully can find a junk yard unit.
Double zip tied the window up through the carriage and a convenient hole. So much easier than trying to cut sticks and prop the window up.
The last power window that died on a previous vehicle got all it’s windows glued shut with silicone!
Things came un-sprung near the motor it appears.
I am not sure what this mess of wires is, but I suspect it’s the cause of the window failure.
Time to find the Pick N Pull? And look for cracked cast iron engine parts you can convince them to part with for less than normal?
I think it’s broke http://t.co/OxYVl7QOdj
