About to change out a power window motor on my '03. Shop manual says the following:
"Prior to the power window motor removal, ensure the regular arms are in a fixed position to prevent counterbalance spring unwind. Failure to place the regular arms in a fixed position can cause the spring to suddenly release resulting in personal injury."
What do they mean? How do I place them in a fixed position? I would presume that if the motor is off/not operating, it's fixed.
