Installation Notes and Tips
Installation of the Dorman 742-836 window motor requires removal of the door panel and disconnection of the existing motor. Since mounting hardware is not included, retain original fasteners for reinstallation. The plug-in connector allows for a direct electrical connection without modification. Verify that the window regulator is in good condition before installation, as this motor does not include the regulator assembly. Testing window operation before reassembling the door panel is recommended to ensure proper function.
