need help with a 91 trunk motor
I got it all back together for the most part and it works! ha but i ran into a few issues. I dont know if my unit was alittle rigged but anway..here we go..
I got the little plasitc arm and spring in my hand since it fell off i put it back together and i thought i had put it on correctly but when the unit comes up it the arm kinda bends in a weird way to the point where after bending this odd way for a few times..falls off. Here are some pics...just need to know how the srping and arm should be mounted..



next is that piece that mounts of top..the coiled spring box thing that mounts to the top of the unit on top of the striker switch. I dont understand the purpose of this...it look like it just hinders the latch from attaching to the hatch itself..

Re: need help with a 91 trunk motor

well i see how that spring box thing works but this was the result after a test run. However i did notice that my hatch is poorly aligned and that the left side was getting hung up when the motor was trying to pull it down which im hopign was the casue of the failure of this pin..
