How do you change a window motor on a 2002 Pontiac Firebird V6 drivers side?

Answer 1

there should be three screws holding the door panel on. one behind the handle one under the bottom and i think one behind the window control panel which just pops out. Lift the panel up and out after removing the screws.let the window down to reveal the bolts holding to power unit. remove the bolts tilt window lift up and out the window opening. Should work.

Answer 2

I am having the same problem with my driver's side window on my 2000 Astro. It is intermittant. It seems to always go down, but sometimes it will not go back up. So far, if I turn off the engine and restart, then the window will go back up. (Maybe a coincidence.)

Answer 7

remove door panel assembly

some models are cable driven and require replacement of entire regulator assembly

if not cable driven then you can replace only the motor itself

each vehicle is different

some are bolted in place and others are riveted to the door shell and require cutting or drilling the rivets out
