W126 window motor runs, but no movement.
 

Drivers side windows, regulator is only a few years old, motor runs freely in both directions but doesn't seem to be connected to the regulator.

I opened up the door today and everything appears to be connected the way it should be. Is there anything I should know before going through the hassle of removing the regulator?

Aha! There's my problem :D

The gear on the motor is broken in half. Regulator is good, motor is good, hopefully I have an extra motor somewhere with an equal sized gear. Using a small mirror helped in getting the motor out without having to pull the regulator (Thank God)

The good gear in the photo is one that I pulled off of a seat motor. The diameter and thickness are the same the but teeth are just different enough for me to seek out another gear. Hopefully I can find just the gear for sale as opposed to the entire motor.
