or that little chip
Glad to see that you found the problem. It's curious that the motor would have a problem like that. I wonder if it's due to environmental damage. Maybe rain over the years, compiled with deteriorating weather stripping.

This is the latest search I did on ebay for a motor.

Looks like it's not gonna be a cheap fix.

Good luck.

Welcome to Earth. Only 89-95 models used the external amp. You can trigger the amp with just a ground signal to see if it's the switch, or run reverse polarity to the motor to see if the amp is bad.

man iv had this problem since iv had the car. i would put the window all the way down an it wouldnt go up. i would have to play with the switch for a few secs than it would go up fine. Than a few months ago it stayed down an wouldnt go up. I gave up after like 20min went inside came out like 30min later and it worked. Im like wtf. I always thought it was the switch till last tues. it got stuck half way down and still a week later wont move. so i hooked my friends switch up to it an still same thing jus clicking from the amp as soon as i hit the switch. Passenger window works fine on all switches tho. Never thought to try his amp to see if that was it. So im guessing im gonna try the amp first. Hopefully thats the prob.

I remember reading somewhere that the real problem is the window buttons in the '95's which wear and get stuck in the down position and burn up the amp.

I grab amps every time I find G20s and s13s at the local wrecker, I think I have 4 spares now.

I thought mine was the window amp til i swapped it out with a working one and it still didnt work.
Then I tried a different switch. no go.

I took apart my power window motor and replaced the contact points for the motor.
If that makes any sense?

because theres the rotating thing on the inside and theres two things that contact that rotating thing. I replaced THOSE.

sorry for lack of better terminology.

I believe you are referring to the "brushes".

My master window switch is broken, so I bought one from a 97 240sx, the problem now is that the actual plug from my car bigger than the window switch from the 97 240sx. . . is there is any where I could make it work?
