How to set upward travel limit on '97 GMC Yukon Power Windows?? Regulator binds latch and lock rods!

Its a switch inside the motor. Not adjustable that I have seen. I would just replace the motor.

So it's all self contained? Are there actually stops/switches inside the motor that shut it off at some point in the travel?

The motor itself works fine. Goes up, goes down. It just goes up too far...

Hi...

Not a mechanic, just an old retired electrical guy who likes cars, so take what I say with a grain of salt... :)

I respectfully think there IS no stop; certainly in every car I've owned as long as you held the switch in either position the motor tried to turn and continued to push... until the auto reset circuit breaker in the motor tripped; then it did nothing at all for the next few seconds.

Mind you, as it tried to push (stalled) nothing bent or broke, and I have no idea what it was stalled against.

Is it possible that you have a missing or mis-adjusted bumper stop in there? How about taking off the other side panel and comparing them ?

I repeat, no mechanic. I stand ready to be corrected, and to learn.

Take care.

I agree same here works that way in all my cars too. The OP needs to learn to let go of the switch as soon as the window is up all the way. (or his wife does)

Was the door recently taken apart ?

Was there any work recently done regarding window operations that you didn't mention in the first post ?

Its possible something is broken that is allowing the regulator to move.
