My kids reported smoke rising from under the back seat for a short time and I later found the right rear window inoperative from any switch. The grommet where the motor wire passes to the window cavity is slightly melted. The wires show signs of heat, the wires look okay but continuity at the motor side of the connector is wide open. No fuses are blown.

Question. How do I remove the motor? (I cannot find the procedure on the maintenance CD). I removed the three nuts but I'm not sure how to deal with the cable. ?undo the torx screws and remove it from the drum? It does not look like the cable will feed through the pulleys if I remove the ends from the plastic block that drives the window. Do I have to remove the entire window and regulator assembly? (I'm not sure how and it looks like a nightmare)

please help!
