Engine hatch actuator (acculift)
 
I am in need of a replacement actuator motor for my engine hatch. It is original acculift actuator motor model MQ347, serial PV24188Q, dated 1995. The hatch motor is weak and no longer has the power to lift the hatch. It has dc power. Just worn out. I’ve tried to find a replacement online with no luck. I’ve also tried to call Danny (supposedly) of acculift in Michigan, with the number I’ve found through this site. And was unsuccessful. No answer or call backs. Anyone that can help with any direction to go or a compatible replacement motor would be great. Thanks.

Do you have the motor in-hand? Take it apart. It may just need a good cleaning and new brushes...

I’ve tried many times over the years to get ahold of acculift and QM with zero luck. Acculift are serviceable, but IMO, they aren’t that great and I’d look for a newer aftermarket replacement.

Do you have the hatch on relays or just off the switch at the dash? If no relays I would suggest putting them in. They move 3 times faster and have the power. My Scarab deteriorated also and relays fixed the issue.

Have you checked the voltage at lift when running... to rule out voltage drop?

I can take the motor off. I checked voltage with it lifting and had a heavy draw, down to 8.5v. I don’t believe it to be on a relay. But that may help. Anyone have a wiring diagram of a example for one with a relay. I haven’t been able to find a aftermarket replacement motor without having to buy the entire lift assembly for $500.

You can't do it with 1 relay. I use a reversing motor solenoid/relay.
