Thumbs up HAMMER HEAD

Anyhow it was a long one under the hood today. And then wouldnt you knwo it I go to put everything up and the dang rear window would not roll back up. No noise or anything.

So I tryed a rubber hammer blow and pushing the up button at the same time and there she went.

Ha sounds good hu? Not really I had totally stripped the whole door down and removed the plastic and was about to grind off the rivets when the hammer blow came to me.

Glad it worked. Well I just threw everything in the back.

Really its a little funny now that I look back on it. You know your getting about done for the day then that happens and so the comment was WHAT THE @#%*^*!!! now . So if that ever happens to anyone, remember the hammer before the stripping and the prying.

Hammer works about 3 times, then she stays down for good. You need to replace the window motor

Usually when this happens the brushes are just about gone. I agree with Dustybumpers time for a new window motor.

I agree if the motor does not make any noise but sometimes you can get them fixed by replacing the plastic bushings inside the roler head.You can get the bushings at Oreillys or Autozoo....HELP brand.When you get in there they will be crushed into several pieces.

I agree. I think I will just unplug it for now. Last time I did a window motor I used some short bolts instead of the rivets. This ones gonna have to wait for a while.

I'm considering having all my rep reset to zilch - seriously.
It's the ride that matters, right?


I don't think I have anything to be afraid of

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

Is it the "***** Move" of all time???

* Or do you see it pretty much like I do?


Like we used to say in the seventies:

"If the scenery never changes - WHOOPEE DING..."

Maybe if you get enough rep you can roll your odometer back to 0.

It's worth a try.

Got my 10 out tonight smooth and easy.

Checked that rep board "its bounceing around like a rubber ball" the ole board will get intresting by the end of the month. I would guess 50 points could change positions on a few right now including myself.
