Thanks for the info. Just finished mine up, driver side was just loose motor must have been replaced prior to me buying as it was in with screws not rivets.
The passenger side was able to roll up but not down. Didn't find any broken wires in door or jamb so assumed it was motor.
Wrong.
Under passenger kick plate, under the big shiny metal box, under the black plastic shroud that the shiny thing is nestled in, lays the wire harness that comes from the door through the jamb. That's where the wire was broken. In my case it was a blue with white striped wire that runs from the drivers side switch to the passenger side.
I spliced in a wire from behind the shiny thing to passenger side door switch. I basically replaced about 2 ft of wire so I could keep the special connector on the ends of the original wire intact.
To discover that I didn't need a new motor I ran temp wire from driver switch to passenger switch across the seats disconnecting original wires from both switches one at a time. When I disconnected the blue\white wire and hooked up the temp the motor worked fine both up and down. I didn't know where the break was yet but I knew what wire was causing the problem.
So, if you have a motor that is working either up or down but not the other direction its probably a wire not a motor. Running the temp wires will save you the cost of a new motor.
My rig is a 95 with 216k on it so after tearing all that apart I figured putting the old motor back in was not a good idea with a new one sitting there. At least that's what I tell myself to feel a little smarter than I did when I realized the purchase wasn't needed.
Thats my story and I'm stickin to it
