Hi there,
My passenger cr motor works sometimes and most of the time is not working. I think the problem from the switch. Can I make an external power source to power the motor for temporary solution.

The power motor is a two way operations, reversing the polarity would turn the direction of the motor so it is not easy to rig an external source.

The way I do it-is a jumper wire at the motor-engage it and then disengage-reversing it-lol
