Rep Power: 902

One day I'm coming home and I roll my driver side window down and it wouldn't go back up. So me and my father replaced the window motor and now about 1 year later the new window motor is starting to show the same symptoms it did a year ago. It goes up very slow and sometimes the window will stop going up and I will have to go down and then back up to get it unstuck. Something else must be eating these motors up, my passenger side motor works fine and I have never had a single problem with it. Yet it seems I'm about to be on the my 3rd driver side window motor with this car. Any idea on what could be causing these motors to die out so quickly?

check the ground, also check the power at the motor with a volt meter (see if maybe low voltage)

I'm running an AC Delco motor, they don't get much more expensive then that.

check the ground at the door, that would cause an overheating conditrion

Mine are going out too. Any ideas of new motors to go with?

the delco should work, make sure the tracks are clean, and the ground is good (all the bending from opening and closing the dorrs makes the wires brittle)also check teh switches make sure they are flowing full current
