In our ongoing attempt to bring you the information you need, Used Parts Central has now added technical articles to our website. The first technical article is about how to replace the drive motor on your factory power windows. The following article was provided by A1 Electric. A1 Electric is a supplier of OEM replacement power window motors and power window kits. Whether you decide to replace your motor with a new one or a used one is your decision to make. But we'll show you how to do it!

Diagnosing & Replacing The Power Window Motor In An S10 Blazer

Power window systems in late vehicles are built on 3 basic platforms.   The scissors system is by far the most popular, and is what this article will show.  Although the vehicle shown is a Chevy S10 pickup, most scissors systems (especially GM's) are very similar.

The first step in diagnosing a power window motor that doesn't move is to check the fuses and/or circuit breakers!  Check for power with the ignition key in the on position.

If the power checks out, remove the door panel and liner on the offending door.
