Product Details and Features

The included gear ensures proper engagement with the window regulator, although the regulator itself is not included.

Ensure the weather-stripping and window tracks are clean and lubricated to prevent excessive load on the motor. Avoid bench-testing the motor outside of its installed position to prevent damage to the anti-pinch feature.
