Window motor making noise

[Carneyman]

'02 Chevy silvy, the passenger window motor is making noise, and it takes forever for it to roll up. Any ideas as to the problem? I took the door apart yesterday and rolled the window up and down a few times, and the motor got pretty hot.

I was going to take the motor off, but there was a lot of force behind it when there was one bolt holding it, and I didn't want the thing to come flying apart when that last bolt came out.

Everyone has that issue with the aging GMT800's. Mine "intermittently" can take forever to go up.
You can try some silicone spray on the rails and see how that goes.

Mine's been doing that for 2 years. Hasn't stopped doing it yet.

Huh, just in time with that one. I'll probably hold off and see if it dies completely. West Texas dust usually kills them after a while.

I did wd-40 the rails, and no change...so I guess I just won't roll that window down much. Problem fixed until I get some cash.

You can find them for around $55 or so if you look around.

Was your actual motor damaged or just the cable? If not, do you still have the motor?

I already tossed my old one, sorry.

Dang. Oh well, I'm sure someone around here left their doors unlocked...
