1998 EX coupe. Driver's side window has become intermittent. Passenger side works from both driver's and passenger's side switches. Driver's side window is still on track, but has always been a bit slower to raise and lower compared to the passenger side since I bought the car 8 months ago. Any test or suggestions?

 

bump please

 

driver side gets used more, the motor is getting weak

 

Yesh. New or used junkyard special ?

 

Test the motor first to be sure: Disconnect the motor connector. Take your cordless drill battery and jump from 1 terminal of the battery to 1 terminal of the connector and do the same with the other terminal of each. Just switch the wires to make the window go the other way.

A new OEM motor is like $200 and you'll probably run into the same problem with a salvage motor. I think the money is better spent on a re-manufactured motor for $30 here: http://www.rockauto.com/

 

Thanks. Very helpful info.

 

Clean your switch contacts to make sure.
