Electric rear sun-curtain problem

[Curtis]

is it making a ticking noise? if it is then the gear on the motor has stripped.this was something i still needed to find a fix for on my stolen car.it is listed on elsa win on how to replace the motor so i assume you can just buy a new motor and gearbox for it.but i never got around to finding out.

it is ticking... but the curtain goes up perfectly, and goes down perfectly... but when it reaches the fully-down position... the motor keeps running(this is where the motor makes the ticking sound), basically as if its not aware that the curtain is down.

then its the gear inside the motor housing that has stripped teeth at the point where it would be when closed. mine had done the same thing.i did notice that audi sells the motor so you might be able to get the whole housing and gear aswel.
