Default Window lift motor replacement?

Hi all -

"The other problem on the 412 was that even the
later type of motor got very wet and many of the
connections suffered corrosion. After rectifying
this along the same lines as the switches, I
glued builders polythene inside the door to stop
any water landing on the motors."

Don't know if this applies, but an expert on
Imperial (Mopar) window motors found that the
window motors were corroding internally because
the hot motors drew in moisture when cooling,
which collected on the bottom of the casing and
could not escape. Fortunately, these same motors
were used in nearly all Mopars for about 20 years, so easily sourced.

There is also an Imperial owner who offers a
service to rebuild window switches.
