Door lock motors, are actually real motors and they get really crappy inside and
need to be carefully dis-assembled and cleaned, greased, and as long as the inside
is not too rusted, and the magnets go back together it can be used again.....

The window motor circuit is much less complicated than a tv. You can most likely
work it out on paper.... It's just a series of switches..... Switch contacts get pitted
by users pushing the window up and when it hits the top, they continue to hold
the button and it over heats and pits the contacts as well.... Ford's switches aren't
bad, you should be able to clean them up and get them working....

Anyway, good to hear you are making progress..... I remember working on my
mustang, first project get all the stuff to work the way is should.... I liked the
clock project the best.... Little set of breaker points to a coil that would wind
the main spring 1/2 turn every 5 minutes of so... Neat little thing...
