How to: window motor

Getting ready to replace the right/rear power window motor on my 67 Delta 88... anyone have any instructions or tips for me?

Yes. If you don't already have them, invest in the 1967 Olds Chassis Service Manual and the 1967 Fisher Body Manual. They have step by step instructions and detailed diagrams of the rear window and of the heater core that you are also looking to change.

Heater core replacement is covered in the chassis manual while window hardware is covered in the body manual.

There are several pages of instructions and diagrams about window regulator removal and installation in the body manual on pages 7-20 through 7-24. Instructions on troubleshooting power window systems and detailed wiring diagrams are over several pages in the electrical secdtion (section 16) of the body manual. There is really too much to scan and/or list here.


These manuals are routinely available on ebay. Here's an auction right now for both of them. His listing says "442/F-85/Cutlass," but those manuals actually cover all Oldsmobiles. The Fisher Body manual actually covers all GM for 1967. The Chassis manual is just Oldsmobile.

They are also often listed for auction separately. There are also a number of old car literature vendors who you can buy these from.

I would avoid the reproduction manuals and the versions on CD as the former are sometimes not complete and the latter can be difficult to read as they are usually just scanned pages converted to pdf format. Plus, they're kind of difficult to take to the shop with you unless you print out the relevant pages.
