SOURCE: how to change power window motor

Replacing the Window Motor
Estimated time: 2 hours at best, 4-6 hours realistic


0) Use duct tape to secure the window to the top of the door frame (I used three pieces)


1) Remove the door panel
a) Remove the panel around the door handle (small panel) by pulling backwards slightly, then popping out. The door lock comes off by pulling out on it (with force). Then lift the panel up and around the door handle.
b) Remove the three screws (one on the far left, one on the bottom, and one behind the panel you just removed.
c) Pull out the power window/lock mechanism (if equipped) by pulling slightly down and out, then detach the wires.
d) Remove the small panel opposite the side view mirror. This is accomplished by pulling back slightly, then pulling out.
e) Pop the door panel off it's hinges.
f) Remove the bracket behind where the handle was.


2) Remove the weather proof plastic wrap.
a) Just start at the top and pull down carefully removing the wrap from the door, being careful not to rip/tear it.


2.5) Remove the wire connection from the top of the motor (found at the top right of the door frame).


3) Remove the four rivets attached to the motor and regulator.
a) There are many ways to remove rivets, I punched out the middle with a drill bit the size of the inside hole on the rivet, then used a dremel to cut the rivet in half, and used a hammer/screwdriver to bust off the outside and punch the rivet through.


4) Remove the regulator/motor
a) Attaching the bottom slide bar (sash channel) of the regulator are two bolts, remove them (I removed the left first, then right).
b) The top bar of the regulator is attached by two nuts/bolts attached to two small brackets. You must reach inside the door panel and loosen the bolts so that they slide off the brackets. [Be careful to keep one hand on the motor as the regulator/motor will come tumbling down at this point!]
c) You need to jockey the units around but they should all slide out the hole in one piece (regulator/motor)

My 2003 Oldsmobile Silhoutte Van overheats when going through town if has been running for a while If I can get a speed above 50 mph then it starts to cool down. What can be the problem In December, they...

They should kick in at 218 to 220 degrees,but then they should go off by them selves ,make sure there is no air in the cooling system,and maybe change the coolant sensor,and thermostat,if this problem persist,the radiator would most likely be the problem,if the cooling fans are coming on,it is important they cut off on there own also,this means the engine(radiator)are cooling down,if the cooling fans do not cut off,there is still another problem
