Power Locks/Power Windows

I guess my car came standard with these in '82, but now the auto door lock doesn't work at all, and the power window on the passenger side needs a little boost (as in you need to run the power windows and push down on her, same with rolling up). Is this fixable or do I need to buy a new motor for the power window? How laborious is it to replace? I used the search but I didn't find any pages with my problems...

Re: Power Locks/Power Windows

I'd suggesting trying the easy fixes first: pull the door panel. Clean and lube the lock mechanisms and window tracks, etc. You may find that flushing 20+ years of accumulated grime will work wonders. If not, replacement may be in the cards. While you're in the door, you might consider some of the fixes in the following link:
