The driver side power window motor on my 93 Ford Aerostar (171,000 miles) has gone bad. I know it's the motor or regulator gearing and not the switch or wiring because when I put a good 12V and ground directly to the motor wires inside the door panel, the motor still won't turn in either direction....

Looking at the depressions in the machined piece on the valve body, is the nub supposed to nest in one of them? And if so how do you determine which one? Or is...
