Hey lads,

My 1992 R32 Gts-t is suffering from what seems to be a dead power window motor of the passenger side window.

Thinking this was a dead power window motor as this car is getting old, I purchased a working order power window motor off the exact same model as mine from a respected user of this site.

After installation, the power window still won't budge. Could there be a fuse or a electronic problem I have overlooked or missed?

This issue is very minor in terms of cars mechanics but very crucial as I can not take the car anywhere with my power window left open.

Any suggestions are welcome.

Cheers!!!

yeh mate, more than likely the power window amp has blown, the drivers door is the actual switch box itself, passenger doors there is a black relay box in the door.

Before going out and buying power window motor always test the motors as they are a few parts that rarely break in these cars. its usually the relay boxes.

If your window is stuck in the down position:

1. Remove door card

2. Find connector clip for power window motor

3. Using multimeter, locate your +12v and GND wires (alternatively remove your car battery and place it near the door)

4. Make a connection between the +12V/GND and the connector clip. Make sure you only tap the wires to the connector clip at first because you may make the motor wind down while it is already down. If this happens, just reverse the + and - wire.

    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
    • I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat 
    • I saw your intro update, are you sure you've actually had a starter motor failure? You mention it could be the alarm causing it. I'm assuming you've got a no start issue, but what are the exact symptoms, as there could be a few reasons it has stopped wanting to start.
