Detailed Description

The Cardone 82-347 power window motor is designed for drivers needing a replacement front left window motor for 1997-1998 Ford F-150 and Ford F-250 models, as well as the 1997 Ford F-250 HD. Built from Cardone’s experience in remanufacturing and reverse engineering automotive motors, this new unit uses a stronger gear material than original equipment to reduce wear-related failure points. It is assembled with the correct lubricant amount and load tested to help deliver smooth, quiet window movement and reliable torque output.

• Front left power window will not move up or down
• Window movement is slow, weak, or intermittent
