Driver side window motor mech

Hi everyone I desperately need a driver side window motor today after 2 pm if anyone can help my motor has just shat itself at work and the cars all open just had to leave it pls help

Pinch ajay's  one. Who is close to you ? Can you not take door card off and get the window up at least? How do you know its the motor itself as the switches fail a lot

Sorry for all the questions just trying to help

Indy is a great guy and from what i have seen would be the first to help others so if someone can help please do

Thanks johnny the window moves up and down everso slightly but just won't go up after a certain point if you understand what I'm saying I can take the card off but until then it's open to the elements in the work car park ... Doh! In all the 20 years it had to choose today lol

indy try pulling it up with your fingers (keeping window straight) as your pressing the switch as that will help take the strain off the cables if one has stretched

Tried and failed

ok then unbolt the 2 10mm bolts which hold the window into the plastic guide (youll need to remove doorcard to do this if windows partially down)
once there off find a bit of wood and wedge the window up so its closed until the regulator units replaced.
at least the car is secure then and not open to the elements, will only take you 10 minutes or so to do

Thanks bob I will try that

Sorry to jump on your post but my N/S window is a lot slower than the N/S will that be the motor and can you get replacements ?

Mine did exactly that a couple weeks ago. The cable had rusted and one of the strands of the steel cable had wrapped up and got jammed. Mine would move down an inch and back up, but at least I could close it... If it moves at all then it won't be the motor, or the switch....

Depending where it's got stuck it can be a bit difficult to get to those 2 bolts Bob mentioned.

I think bob was saying only available as secondhand or from Nissan about £300 plus! Yikes!

I've had quite a few slow/stuck windows over the years and it's never been the motor. It's usually lack of oil/grease in the runners and the cables. The bottom cable and the spool that winds the cables in and out get very stiff and they're not easy to get oil in to without taking it right out. I've found the best fix is to take the whole lot out and separate the motor and gearbox from the rest then it is easy to run the cables up and down by hand and get oil in to the right places.
Best done before it stops completely..

Right chaps just a quick update thanks to bobs advise I've secured the window now but have also discovered the runner cable has dislodged now I don't know weather it's a easy job to remove and replace the whole lot the motor is moving but the mech to me looks like its pooped itself!

Remove the 2 bolts Bob described and then you can pull out the glass.
Then I think the runner is held in with 4 bolts and the motor with 3. Undo all of them, unplug the motor, and than jiggle the whole assembly out. Bout 10mins...

Thanks johnboy by the looks of it it seems quite a tight job is there enough slack on the motor cable for me to disconnect it as I have chunky hands lol and find it a wee bit difficult to get in tight spaces

Get the little fella to get his hands in there Indy

Ideally you need a swan neck 10mm spanner if the bolts are half way down the door, get your mitts in there and remove the skin from the back of them just as I've done many times 
When you see blood trickling you know it's been a worth while job

Lol bob I managed to secure the window by wrestling it down then unbolting the 2 10mm sliding the window up and securing it. At that point I realised a bit of cable hanging from the side of the slider rail, next part is to remove and examin it and replace if neccsery just wanted to see if it was as 'easy' job ( if there ever is on these ) and weather I will be able to disconnect the motor cable else il call my friend with the little hads over to help! Who knows he might be Able to assist me with some wood stuff lol

As John said once you have the 2 bolts out securing the window the other bits a doddle
2 bolts at top and bottom securing slider
3 bolts around the middle securing the motor (all bolts are on outside of doorskin)
Once you have those out just unplug the White connector to motor and pull the whole lot out in one lump through one of the apertures in the door skin and come get another one, like John said its only a 15 minute job even for a big mitted guy

Thanks bob I will do it today and update you all tha ka I advanced for all your help

Sorted thanks everyone for your support and advise in this I am truly great full
