Thanks - using your video as a rough guide, I managed to combine two non-functioning motors into one that worked. The pillow-shaped lump in the brush holder on the first one would not pass electrons. Don't know what it's supposed to do, but I know what it doesn't do. Replaced it with the entire brush holder from another motor with a seized upper bearing and it works. Now, if only the PO hadn't installed an earlier model passenger door, without mount points for the late-model regulator and motor, this would be just a hard job, not a miserable one.
