Default Power window motor question

Hello,

I read some comments and searched everywhere, but found no
definite answer.

02 LS430:

When replacing window lift motor - does it need to be programmed or installed
in certain position, or just simply replaced?

Thank you in advance

Post #3 in this thread was something I overlooked doing when replacing my motor!
zip tying the regulator so the new motor goes in right where the old one came out is something else they called out that I didnt do either. I feel like I hear a bit if a clicking sound when it goes up that I never heard before that might be why...

Thank you for a link, but:

The guy says run motor for 10 sec. but the next post says 4 sec.
So which is correct?

Also FMI what does it accomplish? Motor is a motor and I guess
it will spin as long as a power is applied. Are there any limiters built in?

Tx

10 will work. Make sure you set it up by doing the manual up and down, and them test the auto up, before you put the door back together, taking it apart again sucks
