Compatibility
Suitable for selected:
• Volkswagen Transporter T5 – 7H / 7J

• Volkswagen T5 Camper derivatives
• Approx. 2003–2007/08 applications depending on electrical specification

Technical Information
This motor operates the front electric window regulator and also forms part of the front-door electrical control system.
Depending on vehicle equipment, the door electronics can interact with functions including:
• Electric window operation
• Comfort window operation
• Electrically adjustable mirrors
• Heated mirrors
• Electrically folding mirrors where fitted
The later genuine 7H2959801A version is catalogued with RHD PR code L0R and electric-window equipment codes including 4R1, 4R2 and 4R3. (oemVWshop)
Common Reasons for Replacement
• Electric window no longer operates
• Window operates intermittently
• Window moves slowly or stops
• Motor makes noise but window does not move correctly
• Failed window motor electronics
• Door electrical functions malfunction
• Internal motor or control-unit failure
Important Diagnostic Information
Before replacing the motor, check the window regulator mechanism, wiring loom, electrical connector, window switch and relevant fuses.
A stiff or damaged regulator can overload the motor and produce symptoms similar to an electrical motor failure.
Installation
Fits directly to the compatible front window regulator assembly.
Ensure the window regulator moves freely before installing the replacement motor.
Depending on the vehicle, the electric window’s one-touch/comfort function may require basic re-initialisation after installation or battery disconnection.
Programming / Coding
A replacement motor with matching hardware and equipment specification will normally be the appropriate replacement, but door-control electronics can differ according to vehicle equipment.
Always compare the complete part number and electrical connector with the original unit.
Important Compatibility Note
Please match 7H2959801 / 7H2 959 801 with the number on your existing motor before purchasing.
The 7H2 prefix is significant, and T5 window motors differ according to RHD/LHD configuration, left/right door and vehicle equipment.
For a UK right-hand-drive T5, 7H2959801 is the FRONT LEFT / N/S PASSENGER-SIDE motor, not the right-hand driver’s side motor. (Varaosahaku)
