Burnt out window motor

[VX KAT]

I thought that as I could disable the lock button. Anyone know where the best place is for a window motor and window switch nowadays?

I think I have a used motor ... but I don't have any switches.

Thanks Tom I would be happy to buy it off you, has anyone removed the motor and tried to get it re-furbished or is that a waste of time. If new motor supplies become limited is it worth looking into an alternative?
Do St Charles Isuzu still carry all of the parts still? I know Merlin was a great help when I phoned up years ago but do they still have an active working parts department for the VX?

I'm not clear David.....are you after the beige electronic module that's attached to the black switches, OR are you after the actual motor for the WINDOW? Or both?

Here's closeup pics of the window motor attached to the window regulator. It's super easy to remove the motor, it's just those 3 brass colored screws.






In case somebody is looking for used WINDOW MOTORS, here's BOTH ON EBAY for a VERY reasonable price!

Here's close up pics of the US spec window button modules, in case it helps you decide if you can mod it to work for you.

Thanks Sue,
Helpful as usual, I've bought the motor on e-bay you found, because the price I was quoted for a new one scared me to death.
I am giving my friend the beige module to see if he can sort it because the USA models are different so may blow the new motor.

I assume that you don't need mine then?

Sorry heat of the moment.

OK. Just checking. Looks like I need to re-build that regulator anyway. Binding on Proton's right side now.

The price of a new one is scary to get over to the UK.

Thankfully Sue is around to ease the pain.

I have withdrawn the car from sale as the Cayenne Turbo S purchase has fallen through, must be Karma so the old girl is staying and I'm spending a bit of time and money on her.

Thanks Sue,
The USA models seem to be completely different to the JDM, a friend of mine who is into electronics has offered to take mine apart and see what he can do.
