Have to replace my 2002 tilt motor , I have had it out and it needs replacing .
Does anybody know if 2004 to 2006 will fit the the gen 1 ?
I know they have different part numbers 89231-50050 to 89231-50060 but it doesn't necessarily follow that they won't interchange .
Anybody know for sure ?
I haven't come across one that won't interchange. At least not on the reach motor which are effectively the same design but with a different shaft assembly configuration.
They are a fascinating and unique motor design if you take time to disassemble them. I've taken parts from 2 broken motors and combined them to have a working one.
I have two LS 430's. The tilt motor is an issue. I'm almost positive that I've ordered both part numbers and they both work. I'd probably get the newer part number since they may have made it more durable. I've tried used motors, but they do not last long.
Save the old motor. I bought a NEW motor from Dubai and it worked for only a short time. Swapped in the old wiring harness and it was fixed. Do check to see that the wires are ALL plugged in correctly. I nearly always use a little electrical grease.
