Detailed Description

The Cardone 42-1050 window lift motor is engineered for drivers needing a dependable rear right power window motor for 2005-2010 Chevrolet Cobalt, 2003-2007 Saturn Ion, 2005-2006 Pontiac G4, and 2005-2006 Pontiac Pursuit. Each unit begins as an OE core, then is remanufactured with inspected gears, renewed bearings and bushings, tested armatures, and matched output characteristics where applicable. This helps deliver the correct window speed and strength for the application.

This part cross-references Chevrolet 15906996 and Saturn 22725057 for the same application. The 42-1050 is a practical choice when replacing a worn or inoperative rear passenger window motor on a Chevrolet Cobalt, Saturn Ion, Pontiac G4, or Pontiac Pursuit.

What It Helps Fix

• Rear right window that will not move up or down
• Slow or weak window travel
• Intermittent window motor operation
• Noisy window lift motor operation
• Window movement problems caused by worn internal motor components

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 2005-2010 Chevrolet Cobalt, rear right; 2003-2007 Saturn Ion, rear right; 2005-2006 Pontiac G4, rear right; and 2005-2006 Pontiac Pursuit, rear right. The regulator is not included, so inspect the window regulator, tracks, switch, and wiring before installation. If the vehicle uses an auto-up or anti-pinch system, follow the service manual procedure to set travel limits after installation. Do not bench-test express-up/down motors before they are fully coupled to the regulator, as this can cancel the learned limit position.

Quality Assurance

Each Cardone remanufactured window lift motor is 100% tested on a simulated window fixture to verify speed and strength. Internal parts are inspected and measured, bushings are re-oiled, bearings are replaced, gears are renewed or upgraded when needed, and magnets are recharged to support reliable operation. The remanufacturing process also reduces raw material and energy use compared with producing a new part.
