INSTALLATION
OF
WINDOW LIFT
Place motor and regulator assembly through
opening in door and insert intermediate pivot
arm pin into guide inside of door shell. There
is no clip. Install four regulator attaching
screws, finger tight.
After installing regulator retaining screws,
check to make certain that intermediate pivot
arm did not slip out of guide during installa-
tion. Remove window prop and lower glass. In-
sert control arms into glass channel, using
leather washer on each side of channel, and
secure with clip. On Imperial Models, install
rollers and pins in regulator arms. The control
arms can be inserted into glass channel only
when glass is in lowered position.
Connect wires to motor and connect battery.
On Hard-Top Models—adjust regulator in
slotted holes. Allowing both pins to contact
glass channel when glass frame is flush with
vent wing. On Sedan.—adjust regulator so that
glass runs free in channel. Check glass for
alignment. Connect an ammeter into electrical
circuit and operate window. The ammeter read-
ing should be constant without fluctuation as
follows: Approximately 14 amperes, all models
except rear doors of four-door Nassau, New-
port and St. Regis models. If ammeter reading
fluctuates, there is a bind in glass or in linkage.
The down stop should be adjusted so window
is flush with garnish molding, and other parts.
ELECTRIC LOCKING DOOR LOCKS
The electric door lock is operated by a push-
pull double acting solenoid, attached by a con-
necting rod to the door lock actuating lever.
By pressing the single pole double throw switch
mounted on the right and left front door trim
panel, a solenoid in each of the four doors is
actuated, moving the lock slide member into
the lock or unlock position. (Fig. 48)
All doors may be locked or unlocked either
mechanically or electrically. To lock mechan-
ically push the front door handle to the for-
ward position and depress the rear door lock-
ing button. To lock electrically depress the
switch to lock or lift upward to unlock the
doors.

REMOVAL
AND
INSTALLATION
OF SOLENOID
a. Removal
Remove the door trim panel. Disconnect the
lock to solenoid connecting rod at the solenoid.
Disconnect wires and remove solenoid.
b.
Installation
Fasten solenoid to door and connect up wires.
Connect lock connecting rod to solenoid. The
front doors connecting rod is adjustable. Ad-
just the rod by turning the turn buckle in or
out until the solenoid will just pull the locking
lever into the lock. Check to make sure the
solenoid will pull the lever far enough out to
unlock the door. Install the trim panel.
POWER SEATS
The power seat can be moved six ways—for-
ward, backward, upward and downward and
tilt. (Refer to Fig. 43). The power seat is driv-
en by one motor located under front seat.
The motor operates a gear drive train which
supplies power through flexible cables to the
slave units located in the seat track. The con-
trol switch assembly is on left side of front seat
and is wired through a relay to a 40 ampere
circuit breaker. This circuit breaker is located
adjacent to window lift circuit breakers behind
left front kick panel.
The wire from starter relay supplies power
to circuit breaker. If car is also equipped with
electric window lifts, power is supplied by a
brass jumper parallel with electric window
lift circuit breakers.
Power is supplied to relay from circuit
breaker. Six wires go to switch. One used for
power, two used for motor field current which
also actuates relay for motor armature current.
Three wires attach to solenoids which control
movement of front riser, rear riser and hor-
