Product Details and Features

The motor features a through-hole mounting type with three mounting holes, ensuring a secure fit in the front right window location. It operates with two wires and is grounded through the control switch, typical of 2-terminal motors. The motor is designed to be compatible with vehicles equipped with anti-pinch safety features, which prevent the window glass from closing on obstructions.
Common Issues Addressed by This Window Motor
- Power window failing to move or moving intermittently
- Noisy operation or popping sounds during window movement
- Window dropping from the upper channel by several inches

Installation Notes and Tips
When installing the Cardone 42-338 window motor, ensure the motor is mounted securely using the three through-hole mounting points. Verify wiring connections correspond to the vehicle’s power window control system, as most 2-wire motors are grounded through the control switch. Avoid bench-testing the motor outside of the vehicle to prevent damage or misalignment. If the vehicle is equipped with an anti-pinch safety feature, no reset is typically required after installation unless specified by the vehicle manufacturer.
