installation procedure

CAUTION

Do not operate the power window motor until the glass
installation is finished.

(1) Connect the power window motor to the body-side

harness connector, and then turn on the ignition switch.

(2) Continue to pull the power window switch until the power

window motor stops.
NOTE: Power window motor stops automatically and the
limit switch incorporated in the power motor will be reset.

(3) Turn off the ignition switch, and then remove window

motor from the body-side harness connector.

(4) Align the power window motor drive shaft and the square

hole in the drum by the following procedure, while using
the guide and the opening in the motor housing as a
reference for the installation position.

a. Align the square hole with the drive shaft by sliding the

glass bracket (glass mounting section) or by turning
the drum using a ratchet wrench [with a socket
diameter of 12.7 mm (0.50 inches)].

b. Turn the drum to position the glass bracket as shown

in the illustration. Support the drum and the guide with
your hand while turning the drum, otherwise the wires
may pull out of the drum.

c. If the wires pull out of the drum, re-insert them by

following the drum and regulator wire installation
procedure.

(5) Align the guide and the opening of the motor housing,

and slide the guide into the motor housing while holding
the guide and drum.

CAUTION

Make sure that the metal cover is installed securely and
does not move, in order to stop the drum from vibrating. If
the drum vibrates, the glass may not slide up and down
smoothly, or it may fall down.

(6) install the metal cover securely to housing.

2. Drum and regulator wire installation procedure

(1) Place the drum, guide and regulator on a work bench as

shown in the illustration.
a. Place the drum so that the square hole is facing

upward.

b. Place the guide so that the slits are facing upward.
c. Place the regulator so that the glass bracket is facing

downward. Position the glass bracket so that glass is
in the fully-open position.

(2) Pass the springs over the wires, and then install the

lowering wire to the guide first, followed by the lifting wire.
(The lifting wire should be on top of the lowering wire.)

the bottom of the drum, and then wrap the bottom so that
there is no slackness in the wire.

a. Insert the end of the lifting wire into the wire hole at the

top of the drum.
