This window lift motor is intended to fi t multiple applications. A direct fi
t plug is included that will interface with the most popular vehicles. If the
window lift motor that you are replacing has a connector that does not match
the one included, you will need to splice the original connector to the wires
of the new motor. Simply cut the vehicle side of the connector off from the
provided pigtail making sure to leave enough wire attached.
Using butt connectors, splice in needed pigtail from original motor making
sure that the polarity is correct in order for the switch to operate properly.

in a diff erent position on the new motor, you will need to move the threaded
insert to the correct location. Follow instructions below.
Removal
STEP 1: From the back side of the motor (square gear facing away from you),
bend the two metal tabs outward that secure the backing plate to the motor.
Remove the metal backing plate. This will give you the clearance necessary to
move the insert.
STEP 2: From the front side of the motor, thread an M6 bolt partially into the
insert. Use a hammer to tap the metal insert out of the plastic retainer. Be
careful not to break the plastic ear off of the motor.
STEP 3: To install the insert, unscrew the bolt from the insert and thread it
back into the insert from the other direction. Tap the insert into the correct
hole. Make sure to support the plastic ear that it does not break.
STEP 4: Replace the metal backing plate making sure to bend the metal tabs fi
rmly into position with a hammer and a punch.
