1986 5000 CSTQ Window Regulators

[Paul O'Connor]

I had an interesting repair on my driver's side window
regulator this past weekend.  The window wouldn't
budge, there was power to the regulator motor, so I
removed the entire window regulator from the door, and
dismantled it.  I found that the original grease had
dried and hardened so much that the plastic gear
inside the regulator gearbox couldn't move.  Cleaned
and re-greased the gears, cleaned the contacts on the
motor, and everything works fine.  I've seen lots of
questions regarding windows/regulators not working on
these cars, just thought I'd share my low cost repair
experience.
