    How-To Fix/Replace Window Motor Gear

    This thread was originally created by @SJP0tato on MSF back in September of 2014. On my rear driver's window a few weeks ago, when fully rolled up rather than stopping it started making a loud/obnoxious grinding noise. Then during operation it'd make grinding/clicking noises too.
