MopPar P/N 1810 682. My (frozen) motor is stamped 504435, but I think that's a Delco number.

Also, the rubber coupling is chewed to heck -- It's one piece with the drive cable, MoPar P/N 1810 641.

We probably need a new window motor too. Our RH backwindow doesn't work at all. The wires are connected good. It worked a year ago or something. The wires are getting hot when you tell the window to go down or go up so the 12V are going thru the wires. Anybody know if this is the motor for sure???? Please tell me it isn't the window motor. We checked the prices of them. 1 site has them, for $360 a piece !!!!!!

Received this reply from a parts inquiry. Ouch! Does anyone know of a possible replacement motor?

I know they are very expensive!!! We also searched for one. We found 3 of them and the cheapest was $359!!!! Those prices are not normal!
