To replace the window regulator motor in the Citroen C3, first remove the plastic cover from the handle; then unscrew the screws inside the handle. Once the handle is removed, unscrew the screws securing the panel in place.

After removing all the screws, detach the panel by applying slight pressure to release the clips. With the panel removed, disconnect the switch cable for the wiper and take off the panel.

At this point, remove the protective film located between the bodywork and the panel. Once this protection is removed, you will see the window regulator motor.

Loosen the screws without removing them to slide the motor out of its housing, then remove the two supports for the door's descent and the switch connection. Raise the glass by hand and secure it with a prop to prevent it from falling.

At this point, remove the motor.
