Drivers widow motor not working. There is a 12v feed into the motor but no action - assume kna***rd.

Can the window be lifted manually ?

I always thought the motor was from a Rover SD1?

Don't know where it earths but this should be easy to check, just run one straight to the battery. I would be surprised if this is the problem.
Can only comment on how to remove mine 83 Tasmin,don't know if other Wedges are different....
Remove inner top and bottom trim panels.
Remove the cable that stops the travel
Remove connector from motor
Remove the 4 screws in the middle of the door that hold the mechanism.
It should be possible to get the mechanism out of the window runners and it will come out the top of the door if you prise it apart slightly.
Not sure where you can get a replacement, maybe TVR especially if they are selling off all the parts. I also believe the motor is rover SD1 (rear windows IIRC)
Don't think it's possible to move the window manually once it's stuck.
It may be worth stripping and cleaning the motor.

There is a label on the motor that reads - Rockwell international. 2/15612 RH 12v
Also the letters CIM are embossed on the motor.
Hope this helps. Could somebody let me know if the link works!!

Great - same motor and assembly - your second link worked OK. The logo on mine (hardly readable) is probably Rockwell)
RimerBros have recon motors - not seen a price yet
Thanks
