Window Motors and Rotation

Any help you can offer is appreciated.

Thanks.

You should have gotten 4 window motors, two right and two left. They have moderate speed and lots of torque. As for coding they use a "spike" relay. The coding should be the same for them as any other spike. With the spike you can reverse the flow of energy making the window motor turn the opposite dirrection.
