2002 Camaro Driver Side Power Window Working Intermittently

**daveinstl** · 09-03-2018, 04:32 PM

The driver side window recently started working intermittently. Sometimes it's fine, sometimes it goes part way up and I have to wait a while and it will eventually go up, sometimes a little at a time. I did replace the front speakers a few months back - don't think I loosened any other wires but it's possible. Everything else, including the radio, works fine. I tried replacing the switch because it was cheap and easy but it didn't help. Loose wire to the motor? Bad motor? Something else? Thank you in advance for your help.

Sounds like the motor is going bad. Very typical for these cars. Just replaced the passenger motor on our T/A a couple months ago (and added the Autotrix window fix kit). Had to replace both on my old SS at different times.

Well, I guess it was the motor. I replaced it and it seems to be working OK. It wasn't really that bad to replace except I had to get some self-drilling screws because I couldn't get the nuts and bolts that came with it seated properly.

Yep I had to do something similar on the old SS for the same reason. Didn't have any trouble this last round. Glad you got it fixed
