Window Motor

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1991 Mercury Sable and 1991 Ford Taurus. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: Window motor testing procedures not available at time of publication. However, system is unchanged from 1990, (except for some wire colors). The following 1990 testing information may be useful in diagnosing vehicle.

With motor and drive assembly removed from vehicle, connect a fully charged battery to motor with an ammeter connected in series. Current draw from this no-load test should not exceed 5 amps at 12.8 volts, and should not fluctuate. Reverse battery connections. Motor should reverse rotation and current draw should remain the same. Motor must be replaced if current draw exceeds specifications.
