Another rear window question....

[Ian82]

I think next time I need something I will move my but and try looking round the s$$$$py.

I dont know if this is what your looking for but it explains quite a bit about different specs.

My window would rise up but stop 3 inches below the top the same as yours. If the rear door isn't closed properly then the above happens. All I had to do was to make sure I slammed the door to sort it out. My window can also be raised and lowered whilst horizontal or near horizontal so I can test if it goes the full way up. Try it - as it won't cost you anything. Just make sure you support the window as it goes up and down.

thanks for the info mate, but my motor was definatley knackered! It had a huge groove all through the middle of the teeth on the cog hence why it was struggling when the window got near the top.

Probably a dodgy switch or a broken wire in the rubber covered loom between
the tailgate and body.
