Tips on Troubleshooting the Lincoln Town Car Window Regulator
Your Lincoln Town Car's window regulators are usually built to last, but due to frequent use, they eventually lose grip and cause your power windows to get stuck or be completely useless. Finding the cause of the problem is a bit difficult since you have to remove the door panels before you can inspect the window motor and regulator. But once you've reached that far, you can follow these tips on how you can determine the root cause of your defective windows:
No power
When suddenly your window doesn't work, all you need is a digital multimeter. You need to check whether the problem is caused by the window regulator or the switch. Connect the red and black tips to the wire of the regulator motor and the window wiring connector. Turn the ignition key to "RUN" position. Raise and lower the window until you get a reading. If the reading is between +12 volts and -12 volts, then the problem is the window regulator and not the switch. You can also check the fuse box for any blown fuse, since the window regulators are high-current devices and the fuse box may have reached its threshold.
Faulty operation
It is inevitable that sooner or later the window regulators will fail you. Either the window will go down, but not go up. When this happens, you can conduct the same test using the multimeter. Again, if the reading toggles between +12 volts and -12 volts, then you should check your window regulator for damage. If there is no reading from the instrument, then it could be due to a bad switch or a broken wire. Replace the defective switch or wire immediately.
Stuck windows
Isn't it awkward that at the time you need to open your window the most, it randomly gets stuck? When this happens, the window regulator does not have enough lubrication to operate smoothly. What you can do is oil the regulator with a silicone spray. However, if it still won't work, then you can further inspect for damages or worn-out parts in the window assembly that you have to replace.
Your Lincoln Town Car's window regulator makes it possible for your power or manual windows to go up and down with ease. However, just like any other car component, your window regulator will yield to wear and tear, especially if it was often used carelessly. But did you know that there are ways to prolong your window regulator's service life? Below are some of the tips on how to keep your Lincoln Town Car's window regulator from wearing out:
Operate the windows carefully.
The regulators on the driver and passenger side windows usually wear out faster than those at the rear. Limit your effort when operating the power windows, since too much force can cause the regulator to exceed its threshold in opening the windows. Don't play with the button and press it only when you need it to avoid overusing it.
Replace bushings regularly.
Bushings are the small parts of the window regulators that usually wear out fast. Although these components are made from durable materials, they eventually crack and break due to the frequent use of the windows. You can replace the bushings every two years or as long as you've seen cracks or breaks on them. Replacement parts are cheap and available on any auto parts store.
Clean and reapply grease.
You can do this when you feel like opening your power window is becoming a struggle. Chances are, there is dried grease on one of the bushing that hinders the regulator from operating smoothly. However, be careful when you disassemble the window assembly if you want to clean it. You can use a mild cleanser to remove the dirt buildup on the window regulator. Also, re-grease it after cleaning it to ensure that the parts will work properly.
Keep its grease from drying out.
High temperature could cause the grease of the window regulator to dry up. When this happens, you will have a hard time lowering or raising the window, especially if you left your car unused for sometime on your garage. What you can do to prevent this from happening is to keep the window regulator warmed up. You can do this by tapping the button slowly until it is fully opened. Do the same until it is closed. This way, you are minimizing the chance for the grease to dry up, which creates friction and resistance.
Does a Lincoln Town Car window regulator fit universally?
No. A window regulator comes in different configurations, depending on where it is intended to be installed. A right-door window regulator will not fit in the left-door. The same thing goes for the front and the rear doors.
How does a Lincoln Town Car window regulator deteriorate?
Like all things, a window regulator gets worn out over time; frequent use is the usual problem. Although in rare cases, the motor, cables, and other metallic parts accumulate moisture, and eventually, rust. Troubleshooting measures can be done by reinforcing the parts with adhesive, but if the problem is severe, the entire mechanism should already be replaced.
How to know when a Lincoln Town Car window regulator is retiring?
If the window fails to operate properly, the usual culprits are often the window regulator, motor, switch, and wirings. Diagnose the problem by removing the door panel. Rust and other usual signs of wear should manifest itself in the regulator or motor mechanism. If there's none, then that is a different problem altogether. The switch and the wirings are not included when purchasing a window regulator.
Is a window regulator easy to install on a Lincoln Town Car
If the Lincoln Town Car is installed with side and rear airbags, then, no. The window regulator is fairly easy to install because it bolts right into the existing holes. However, the airbags will pose as a problem, since fidgeting around the door structure might accidentally deploy the bags, and cause injuries.
Is the motor included in every purchase of a Lincoln Town Car window regulator?
No, it has to be asked specifically from the dealer. Some regulator mechanisms are sold without the motor, since not all the time, the motor is the defective part. At the same time, window regulator motors are also sold individually by some car parts stores.
