Description
Electric Motor For Right Front Window Regulator For CITROËN C4 First Series Passenger Door
This used electric window motor is designed for the right front (passenger) door of the Citroën C4 first generation. Ideal for professional workshops and skilled DIY mechanics, the unit restores smooth and reliable operation of the window regulator assembly. Commonly searched by part numbers 9647441380 and 9222AV, this motor is a direct-fit replacement when the original drive has worn out or failed.
Key Features and Function
The motor converts electrical input into rotational force to drive the window regulator mechanism, allowing the glass to move up and down. Built to work with the door regulator and mounting bracket, it contains a small electric motor, gearbox and mounting flange. The motor engages with the regulator gears or cable drum depending on the regulator type.
When And Why Replace It
Typical symptoms of a failing window motor include slow or intermittent window movement, grinding or clicking noises, complete loss of movement on the affected window, or the window stopping in random positions. Motors usually fail due to worn commutator brushes, gearbox wear, contamination from moisture and corrosion, or excessive mechanical load caused by a stiff regulator or damaged window tracks.
Replacement Procedure (Overview)
Replacement requires moderate mechanical skill and basic tools. Recommended steps:
- Disconnect the vehicle battery before starting to avoid short circuits and accidental motor operation.
- Remove the interior door trim and any moisture barriers carefully to access the regulator and motor.
- Support or lower the glass to detach it from the regulator (mark position for reassembly).
- Unbolt the motor from the regulator and disconnect the electrical connector.
- Install the replacement motor, reconnect wiring, and test window operation before reassembling the door trim.
- Reinstall the door trim and final-check the window travel and sealing.
Professional tools such as a trim removal set and a multimeter for checking power at the connector are useful. Always follow safe working practices when handling glass and electrical components.
Maintenance Tips
To prolong service life, keep window tracks clean and lightly lubricated with appropriate plastic-compatible grease, avoid forcing the window when obstructed, and repair any regulator binding early. Protect the door interior from water ingress to reduce corrosion risk.
Technical Information

Installation Recommendations
Always disconnect the battery before starting work. Verify the connector pins and wiring for corrosion or damage. Test the new motor electrically before final reassembly and adjust the regulator mounting so the window moves smoothly through its full travel. If the regulator shows excessive wear or the window binding persists, replace the regulator assembly together with the motor for long-term reliability.
Most Common Failure Causes
Failure usually results from worn brushes or armature wear inside the motor, gearbox tooth wear, water or dirt ingress causing corrosion, and mechanical overload due to seized tracks or a damaged regulator. Frequent short trips with partial window movement and exposure to moisture accelerate deterioration.
