The window regulator is gear-driven. The arm that raises and lowers the window has a long curved rack, driven by a gear on the motor. Most likely, if you can hear the motor running, then the gear on the motor is broken, or the gears are stripped. I've had both problems. You'll need to pull the window regulator to disassemble and pull motor to find out for sure which one it is. Either way, it sounds like you'll be changing the motor.

Why is the sunroof on 02 Liberty stuck open Any suggestions for a fix?

Surprisingly, this is an incredibly common problem with 2002 Jeep Liberty models. The most common reasons are a broken switch, a blown fuse or motor, problems with the liner seal, or a broken auto lock. If trying to close the sunroof makes any sort of noise, it is a problem with the motor. If the sunroof doesn't make any noise at all while trying to close it, it is the switch.

Can a 2007 Mitsubishi Galant motor fit in a 2003 Mitsubishi Galant frame?

Yes, with very little to no modification, from what I understand you can use the same trany from your 03 as well as the computer, and the motor should line up with mounts no problem. Make sure the motor you're trying to drop is a 6G75 3.8L and not a 4G69 2.4L.

Why does your battery drain on your 1976 Cadillac Seville?

Either the battery has a dead cell and needs replacing or something is pulling power from the battery when the engine is off. I had a problem with my 1986 Cadillac DeVille where the power antenna was stuck and the motor would run all night trying to lower the antenna. To resolve the problem I just removed the fuse for the power antenna motor.


I want to power a breathable air compressor with an electric motor. can I attach an alternator to the motor to charge a 12v battery that in turn powers the electric motor?

No. It sounds like you are trying to create a perpetual motion machine. The problem is that the power you input suffers losses that are both mechanical and electrical so that the power you could get out cannot replace the power in.
