power windows

Post by dartme »

Does anyone know if you can turn power windows to role up without taking the electric motor out? They only seen to work when they feel like it..If not how hard is it to change to role up or put new motors in?
Thanks

you would have to change the window regulator to convert to manual roll up windows

Dartme have you checked the levers to make sure they are working correctly first. I have been dismantling a 74 and have found that the grounding of various parts is sketchy at best. I would check all the connections and continuity of the wires from the switch to the motors and all the grounds. Use some dielectric grease in the connectors as this will help them from getting corroded.
