Small plastic cap in the headliner, over the center of the back seat. Remove the cap, insert the hex crank.

Correct, the motor is in the back. You will have to pull the headliner to get to it. I believe though it is just a regular power window motor. Are you sure it's the motor and not the relay's/controller? I guess you'd have to pull the headliner to get to either of them, but something I would test once you get to that point.


I've got a few if you need one, just shot me a PM.

Its prolly the controller, cause it just get stuck in the stop position, like what ever electrical contact there is is worn in just that spot. The roof and motor still work quite well, which is freakin impressive for a chassis with 240k on it!

And the little plug, and having a "plan B" key, is one of the simple little designs on these cars that I really appreceate. Other car manufacturers never do that sort of thing. Everyone else just assumes there product is so superior, theyd never need to do this. And there shit breaks at 80k.

All my power windows still work, the HVAC still works flawless, the doors still shut like the day it came off the factory floor. The only rattles the cars interior has are ones that I made!

I cant think of any other manufactures that made a car to last this long, and still keep itself together. AND, I beat the hell out of this thing daily. :)
