• Fits the front left window position
• Gear included; regulator not included
• 8-wire design with 3 mounting holes and through-hole mounting
• Internal components inspected, gauged, and renewed for reuse or replacement as needed
• Motor magnets recharged for consistent efficiency
• Output signals and pulse counts matched for auto up/down applications where equipped
• Earth-friendly remanufacturing process reduces raw material and energy use

Detailed Description

Cardone 42-30037 is a remanufactured window motor engineered for the front left door on select Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX models. It is built from Original Equipment cores and restored to OE mounting and regulator requirements, making it a practical replacement when the driver-side front window stops moving, slows down, or operates inconsistently. This part cross-references Ford and Lincoln OE application 7A1Z5423395A for the same application.

Each unit is 100% tested on a simulated window fixture to verify speed and strength. Internal bushings are gauged and re-impregnated with lubricant, bearings are replaced as needed, armatures are tested for insulation, and gears are inspected for wear. For vehicles with auto up/down functions, the motor is shipped in the full-up position and travel limits are matched to the application.

Common Issues This Part Can Solve

• Front left power window will not move up or down
• Window moves slowly or loses strength under load
• Motor runs but the glass does not travel correctly
• Noisy or rough window operation from a worn motor assembly
• Auto-up or auto-down function no longer responds as expected

Installation Notes and Tips

• Fits 2007-2015 Lincoln MKX, front left.
• Fits 2010-2014 Ford Edge, front left.
• Do not bench-test express-up/down motors before they are fully coupled to the regulator.
• If an auto-up/down motor is operated before installation, travel limits may need to be reset using the vehicle service procedure.
• Inspect the regulator, tracks, switch, wiring, and weather-stripping if the new motor does not restore normal operation.

Quality Assurance

Cardone remanufactured window lift motors are tested for speed, strength, and fitment consistency before release. The remanufacturing process reuses OE cores, renews worn internal parts, and verifies compatibility with the original mounting and regulator design for Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX front left applications.
