Detailed Description

The Cardone Power Window Motor and Regulator Assembly, part number 82-473AR, is designed for drivers who need a complete replacement for a failing window lift system rather than replacing the motor alone. When regulator wear places extra load on the motor, the assembly approach helps address the root cause of premature burnout. This makes it a practical choice for Dodge Ram 1500, Ram 2500, and Ram 3500 front left window repair where smooth glass movement and dependable operation matter.

This Cardone window motor and regulator assembly is built for direct replacement service on 2002-2008 Dodge Ram 1500 front left, 2003-2009 Dodge Ram 2500 front left, and 2003-2010 Dodge Ram 3500 front left applications. This part number 82-473AR is also referenced by Dodge 55275599AC for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Window glass that moves slowly or stops partway down.
• Grinding, binding, or uneven window travel.
• Motor burnout caused by a worn regulator assembly.
• Intermittent front left power window operation.
• Noise from worn gears or internal lift mechanism wear.

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle year, model, and front left position before installation. Confirm the connector and 2-wire configuration match the existing setup, and inspect the door glass tracks, guides, and related hardware for wear that could affect the new assembly. Because this unit uses a bolt mounting type, align the assembly carefully during installation to help ensure smooth window travel.
