I install orginal e-windows to my 360. Works good but, when window is full closed, it stucks to up. Sometimes windows begin work, but when you again raise it full closed, it stucks again. When you press switch to up position, headlights
going dim.
Why? How i get windows work good? Motors i restored, so i not think so that problem is not are in motors.
Hello Customer, you also need to make sure that everything in the mechanism is well-greased including the gearbox for the little electric motor. It means a bit of disassembling but when its done it should work well. Bests, bogbasic.

dimming when you press the switch and the motor stalled is fairly normal. The motor is drawing the right level of power, but is either a bit stuck or the mechanism sticky.
When you say you overhauled the motor what did you do? Was the gearbox bearing worn, and/or freely moving?
New motors and gearbox where availble from GSF the last time I looked, but pricey at £100 each.
I disassembly motors, parts corrosion removed, greased and assembly. Now i wondering, just the bad bushings maybe cause this problem. Sometimes works nice, when you driving and car shakes, windows maybe not work, sometimes works good.
Back to the old windows or fabricate new bushings or get new motors
