R34 sedan drivers window - solution

[It’smywifescar]

Hello all,

 

now i I don’t own a skyline but as my name suggests it’s my wife’s car, but I’m always working on it if not on my own ford.

 

for the last couple of years the drivers window hasn’t worked, I decided to get cracking on it this weekend and it’s now working,

it had all the usual problems other have described before, window stuttering, gets stuck, goes half way up and stops like it’s stuck

 

 

well you need to get the regulator out of the door, if you can’t manage that turn back now..undo the 3 screw on the silver motor cover, little gold screws.. the inside of the silver housing and the black plastic part are likely full of crap and dried up grease.. buy a can of electrical contact cleaner from Supercheap about $10.00 and clean out the silver cap..windout the motor spindle anticlockwise while gently pulling on it.. clean this also with the contact cleaner.. get a small piece of fine sandpaper and clean the small copper ring where the contacts touch it while it’s in the housing.. clean the contacts with the sand paper also.. put a little grease or silicon spray on the screw end of the motor spindle..put it all back together, silicon spray the window runners and all should be fine, if all this doesn’t work then it’s electeical or the switch module
