If it's banging and you can hear motor running, it's main joint where the spring is come apart, the gear on the sissors goes out of sink, there was a thread on maseratie life,I welded a wee bie of ba rod on to the arm for extra strength ,turned bolts round, cosy me 75p for the bolts job done .
The unit out of the alpha Spyder is a straight swop.

Regards,
Stewart.

No sounds what so ever all I do know is that when the button is pressed in the center counsel I have power going to the window. But no movement at all not even the drop when opening the door.

I've been looking for a new window regulator motor I have a price for a second hand origianal part and I've seen several Alfa parts that are cheaper but not sure if they are the right part. Can anyone tell me the Alfa part number or modle that I need. Or should I just get the Maserati part.

Not sure if we ever nailed the part number, but if memory serves it's the number of connections that's the kicker.

I did this job a while back. If my memory serves me right, I had to split the parts as the alfa regulators worm drive was backwards to the Maserati one. I think I have the remnants in the garage.

So it's a nice Saturday afternoon a perfect day to replace my window mechanism. so I take the door card of and familiarise myself with the faulty part to make sure I put the new one back in the corect way. And that's as far as I can go. Who can gues the problem.

Hard to see on my photo below from when I had an issue last year.

But you can just see part of the mechanism if this helps, looks like it fits the door your holding it against to me.
