Hi Everyone,
I made the switch from electric windows to crank and so I have the door panels, switches (1 passenger side and 2 drivers side masters), and the regulator/motor assemblies available. Let me know if you need all/one of those parts.

Background: my electric windows stopped working and I could not debug it. I tried cleaning the master switch and even getting a used one that was tested as working, but the replacement one did not fix it.
At the end of the day I think the problem was a broken wire inside the insulation somewhere, and I think that because the windows/locks were working intermittently before it went out completely and if I fidgeted around with the master switch (literally pulling it out of the panel while hooked up, engaging a switch, and moving it to and fro) I could get the power to flow depending on the how I moved the switch.

I've been having troubles posting pics so PM me and I can send photos via e-mail.

Kinger - how was making the swap? Straight forward with the appropriate donor parts?

It was very straightforward- didn't take long at all. The tricky part in my case was with my passenger side window. My passenger side window had some alignment/sticking issues in the channel when rolling up with the power windows and now with the manual set up it is worse.

But being the complacent, lazy-ass I am, I'm willing to live with it as long as I can still get it to roll all the way up and down, which is still the case. If one had no issues prior to making the switch, then I would imagine it would be that much easier.

Good call, Tim. I'll try this out and report back on results.

If they're still available Saturday, I'll be up there and can see what is compatible with mine.
Gonna have the A/C inspected at my friends shop and see if it's just seals and a recharge.
Was 104* in my driveway today.

I'm actually headed out of town to the Bay area on Friday so I won't be around. Let me try to get pics up on this thread so everyone can see what is being offered.

If you currently have the switch assemblies for both doors, I am interested. Please let me know.

Thank you,

hi,

i'm in need of passenger side (P/S) power window regulator for '86-'89 toyota van. not the motor but the skeletal assembly that holds and guides the window up and down.

i know this post is three-plus years old but any response would be appreciated.

thanks
