Front Power Window Motor Installation Note

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Mazda CX-3. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

If the front power window motor is installed without securing the front power window regulator drum housing, the drum housing may detach from the front door module panel and the front power window motor may not install correctly. When installing the front power window motor, insert your hand through the front door speaker installation hole and secure the drum housing so that the clip shown in the figure does not detach.
