RS8055 Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Hi guys, I am driving a LHD 350Z DE (2004) and the passenger side (so the right side door) window motor appears to have crapped out. Was wondering if anyone has or knows where I can get my hands on a replacement motor? I have read that simply cleaning the motor or doing a DIY refurb only temporarily fixes the issue, so would prefer to get a replacement part. Open to ideas. Cheers, Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZEUS Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 There is a thread on here somewhere with a link to cheaper non Nissan motors but I can't find it for the life of me! I cleaned both my motors a while back and they are still going strong though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evest Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 If you've got the money to buy a refurbished motor then you're better off just swapping them out in my opinion. Based on the car's age, it's likely that the little carbon brushes inside the motor have worn down, so cleaning it will probably buy you a few months at best.

GreenLandy Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Or tease the brushes out a little more (stretch the springs) I did mine and they've last 18 months so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
