How to Replace the Automatic Window Motor in a 2001 Chevy 1500 Pickup
- 1). Pry the window switch and switch bezel out of the door panel with the trim tool. Flip the bezel and switch over and then unplug the wiring harness from the switch by hand.
- 2). Remove the screws in the door panel using the Phillips screwdriver. Put all the screws in one place for ease of reinstallation.
- 3). Lift the door panel up and off the door by hand. Lift the window glass to the top of the window frame by hand and tape it securely in place with the packing tape.
- 4). Unbolt the window motor from the door and from the window regulator with the socket set. Unplug the wiring harness from the motor by hand and pull the old motor out of the door.
- 5). Insert the new window motor and bolt it to the regulator and door with the socket set. Plug the wiring harness into the motor by hand.
- 6). Reinstall the door panel in the reverse of how you removed it. Pull the packing tape off the window glass before operating the window.
