Rear window dead

[nixoro]

Well . . . it's playing a different game now.  Took the door card off.  After just poking around the light now works in the switch.  Window still doesn't move.  All power/signals look ok.  Relay in the regulator clicks on, and then back off after a second, when you push the switch up or down.  No noise from the motor.  Tried holding the switch down to 'teach' the anti-crimp but no luck.  Is the motor just shot?

Cheers,

Sounds like the motor maybe at fault can you disconnect it and see if there is any sign of water or something got into the join. Maybe affecting the workings etc.

If it was just a shot motor, that wouldn't have affected the switch, which is now working since you had a rummage around.

Too much of a coincidence me thinks, I'd still go with the loom/connector.

I'm game to do more checking, but I don't know what else to look for.  The connector at the motor has 1 gnd, 2 hot, and 2 other pins - 1 goes hot when you press up on the switch, and the other when you press down.  Seems right to me?

Its a shame you dont have a spare motor to try.
