alright.. the window motor is bad, i already know that.. i tried taking it out.. undid the bolts that hold the motor in place and.. couldnt figure out how the motor gets out of the door... its got a track on it, i think, and that isnt somethin that can be disconnected.. i think..?
i searched and couldnt find the right up that i coulda swore that ive seen before.. anyone have pics or can tell me how or what i gotta do to get it out?
thanks

Remove glass from regulator, remove regulator from door, remove motor from regulator.

45 seconds.

Yeah, its a tight space to work in but it can be done. I believe the FSM has a walkthrough.

- Take out the glass by unbolting the 4 10mm nuts then pull out the glass carefully
- Unbolt the 4 12mm nuts on the regulator then just pull it off
- Disconnect the plug on the motor
- Unbolt the 3 screws that's holding the motor on the regulator

The just put in the new one in reverse order. BAM! Window works. Hope this helped.

i thought that the window didnt have to come out for doing this on an S14 though? if i do.. that would explain why it wouldnt come out.. but lets go check...........

Great reading skills. The window does not have to come out, but it does have to come loose from the regulator to be able to pull the regulator out of the door.

Think about it, the regulator won't budge if the window is holding it in place.

unbolt regulator from window and unbolt regulator from door.. unclip the wire harness.. and pull it thru.... the door...
