Back Window woes

I have a 91 4runner (duh) and the back window is very slow to go up and down and wont go all the way to the top without help. This seems to be common with the 4runners i looked at. Is there a fix for this?

I know this doesn't help with the rear window but on my 95 camry I have noticed the windows have gotten really slow. My only guess would to be to replace the back motor. Motors get old after awhile especially if not lubricated. Its prob an easy fix as well.
 
WTF do you mean? I DIDNT GET ANY ANSWERS!! At least not from these lame ass forums!

Happy New Year too you too *******s!

You didn't get any help because your attitude sucks.

Try asking at the "other" yota forum. And be on your best behavior! LOL:p

My attitude sucks because i didnt get any help, not vise versa.

Wow...amazing...there are over 20,000 subscribers to this forum. Not that everyone is active...but to call everyone names...geez. If you aren't getting what you want, why not just leave the board and don't post here again? I am guessing you are one of those people who gets repeated bad service and keeps going back to the same place and then whines it's someone else

How are we going to know this again? You forgot to edit your sig on this yota forum.


anyways I used the search function(great tool!) and came out with this response to your exact question:

Biggest cause for older 4Runner rear windows to go slow is a dry window run, dried out grease in the window motor, this all gets thick in colder weather and a worn gear shaft in the window motor itself, the extra load from dry runs will wear these out quickly, use silicone spray for all your window runs and rubber seal, but don't get silicone spray even close to it if your in primer prepping for paint, the results will make you sick Also, while your trying to roll the window down, look at your dash lights (ie check engine, alt, seat belt, ABS etc), engine off and see if they dim quite a bit, if they do, this is a good indication its getting power to the motor, just hard turning, if they don't dim, it can be other items, most common is the rear wiper park switch, and a latch detection switch, in that order too.

So if your bored one day, PM me and we can walk through how to search forums, or even use search engines.

Post the answer to someones question that i found using the search function and you get your answer. Teach a someone to use the search function and he'll never post another useless(rude) thread!

It's sad how more and more peole are like this these days. I'm a young kid and people like this still make me sick. Usually these are the ones you see in rush hour traffic cutting others off left and right and running the yellow to red lights, oh and not stopping at stop signs and then flipping you the bird because they almost hit you from not stopping like it's your fault and not theirs.
