[urq] Window Actuator Motors

[DGraber460 at aol.com]

Which model are you dealing with?
I'm in the middle of fiddling with 3 units myself. 1 CGT, 1 URQ, & 1 5KT.
What a pain.
I was able to replace the motor on the 5KT unit (the motors do go bad), but 
it is considerably different construction than the URQ. The trick is to not 
disturb the cable winding. If you do you'll be in for a very frustrating 
wrestling match, needing more hands than you have. Anything I can do to help 
let me know.
The URQ is a cable problem, and I'm trying to replace it with bicycle shop 
cables. It will work fine if I can find a way to swage the ends successfully, 
which I haven't been able to do yet.
Another lister posted a cable repair some time back but I can't remember who.
Any other BTDT's out there?
