I was thinking Charles. I am pulling it tonight and hoping to find some kind of marking on it. I read a thread that said new ones were 1K and repair was 225.00 I sure like the sound of repair better.
As for the footwells Both motors are seized and going to a local shop for rebuild if I can't get them going and freed up.
Thanks guys your the best

Local electric motor shop wouldn't mess with it so I opened it up and cleaned it myself and re-sealed it and it works like a champ! It was easy and you just have to be careful with the brushes.

I had to drill out the 6 pop rivets under the carpet and remove the whole step. Then unbolted the 4 bolts holding down the frame. From there un-pinned the motor and shaft and tore it down. Went back with a slightly larger rivet to re-assemble.
