Electric window hook up question

[Peter Coomaraswamy]

Hi Folks,

After assembling my door I guess I'm not the "expert" that I thought I was because I can't seem to figure out how to hook up the wires. I looked on some recent threads and cannot see the same motor that I have in my car. These could be "borrowed from another vehicle" which would not surprise me but there seems to be four tabs but only 2 wires. I included some pics. Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks,

The 2 tabs on each side are tied together.... So you use 1 tab from one side and one tab from the other side. If the motor runs the wrong way , just reverse the wires.
If you still have one out...The plastic cover pulls off very easily and it will all be perfectly clear.
BTW These are the later motors...Like you, I found very little info about them. The up side is, the motor is the same as most late 70's early 80's BMW and Mercedes. Just the gear box is different. I was able to rebuild one of mine by scavenging most of the parts from a motor out of a Merc.

Much appreciated

Thanks Dave, I have one out and one in. I was a little afraid to take both doors apart at the same time so I did one at a time to keep a "model". I was also afraid to pull the plastic cover off, but will now and check out the innerds.

Cheers
