Power window motor replacement

[celica_tommo]

Seems I need to replace my power window motor in my AW11. Neither my haynes manuals or toyota repair manuals seem to cover the removal and installation of it.

How do toyota power windows work? looks like cables etc... how do i take the motor assembly out? i.e. remove the cable from it.?

come on. Boring subject I know but I've got no ideas on how it works o how to get it out

with the door trim off window up, the window should bolt onto the window reg /motor. may need the window half down to up bolt it from the window reg. then unbolt the reg. work the reg out. opposite to put back in. may need some one to hold the window up as you unbolt it. isnt rocket science very hard to stuff up. other wise try ask an auto sparky in auckland on toyspeed if there keen for a perky,

seems to operate by cables though... I unbolted the motor etc and it's loose in there but wont come out cause of the cables going inside it
