Power windows help!
« on: August 05 2013, 05:39:01 PM »
I swapped the guts out from my old car to my roller doors yesterday. The roller had a manual crank window in it I guess they replaced it before it got painted and never changed back the motor. Anyway few beers later put the electrical stuff all back in. Since my car doesn't have a battery or pretty much anything in it yet. Can I jump the power window motor with a 12vt current and get it to move. It's a brand new regulator/motor too.
I don't care What Congress does as long as they don't do it on the streets and scare the kids!!

Sure you can, reverse the voltage to change direction. Make sure the motor is not loose, and mounted correctly.

Wow that was way too easy!! Used my battery charger ran ground to the door frame with and alligator clip wire and ran alligator clip wire from the terminal on the charger. Grounded the charger to the body. Used it in2 volt mode went right up. I clipped the wires to the window switch harness blue and black wires.
Done!
