Fiesta1.25 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 I doubt whether you can just replace the cog, you can buy used motors on eBay for as little as £10 (they are obviously side specific) you can fit a motor from 2002-2008 mk6/6.5 models (unsure if the 3 & 5 door ones are the same) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the goat Posted November 22, 2019 Author Share Posted November 22, 2019 Update hi folks, just an update I could not get the top off the gear pod to release the broken cog, (could have butchered it, but thought NO) just to see if the cog was same as the one that sells on ebay so I got the complete unit from here (3 door fiesta) fits a treat, but took 48hrs to arrive not the 24hrs they said https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NEW-WINDOW-REGULATOR-MOTOR-FRONT-RIGHT-SIDE-FORD-FIESTA-MK6-3-DOOR-2002-2008/382918556221?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was wondering how you remove the c clip that holds the cog to the shaft. The raised wall of the cog is stopping me getting a good grip on it. Your help would be much appreciated. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chriis88 Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Very helpful guide from the goat. £4.48 on eBay for the cog, 20 minutes to sort. Thanks for the help 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Em B Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Great thread. Many thanks for all the information. Have just replaced the cog using one from eBay (from the thread above), and I now have a fully functioning electric window! Thanks again!

Guest Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 What causes the cog to break?, is it opening the windows when frozen? I accidentally went to open my windows this week....then wished I hadn't:-( luckily didn't break, but its hard to shake off those care free company car driver habits now I have bought my own 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulkp Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Certainly not frozen when it happened to me on the driver's door last week ! 2007 Fiesta Zetec S. Advice from a local garage was that the grease on the runners harden with time, making it stiff to move, and that causes the cog to shear. So doing mine, I took off the inner panel, cleaned up the runners and rebuilt it. A bit of a saga, but subjectively the driver's window now moves more smoothly than the passenger window. Removing the loudspeaker gives you better access to the front runner to unclip the window. rear runner is only accessible through the small hole. If you just remove the motor, there is some resistance to re-engaging the £5.00 cog, with the loudspeaker out you can get your hand behind it and hold the mechanism firm. Should you visit your Ford dealer to purchase a replacement motor........... Now you buy the motor, with a splined drive and regulator mechanism to match and it would cost you about a monkey................ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
