Description
Electric window motor for the right front window for Citroën C4 first generation, passenger door.
Overview
This replacement window lift motor restores reliable up-and-down operation of the right front (passenger) window on Citroën C4 first generation models. Ideal for professional workshops and DIY mechanics who search by part number – commonly listed under 9647441380 and 9222AV. The unit is designed to drive the window regulator and return smooth, quiet operation when the original motor has failed or is noisy.
Function
The motor provides rotational torque to the window regulator mechanism, converting electrical input into mechanical movement to raise and lower the glass. It works together with the regulator assembly, limit switches and switch circuitry to ensure controlled motion and safety.
Compatibility
Fits Citroën C4 First Generation (Passenger Door, Right Front). Commonly referenced by OEM numbers 9647441380 and 9222AV. Always verify the part number used in the vehicle’s door assembly when replacing the motor.
Replacement Procedure
- Prepare Tools: Trim removal tools, Torx/screwdrivers, 10 mm spanner, socket set, grease and a multimeter for quick checks.
- Safety First: Disconnect the negative battery terminal before starting work to avoid short circuits and inadvertent glass movement.
- Remove Door Trim: Carefully detach the interior door panel and any vapor barrier to access the regulator and motor.
- Disconnect Electrical Connector: Unplug the motor wiring harness. Inspect connector for corrosion or damage.
- Detach Motor: Remove the mounting bolts securing the motor to the regulator. In some assemblies the motor and regulator are one unit; follow vehicle-specific fasteners.
- Transfer/Replace Regulator (If Needed): If the regulator gears or guides are worn, replace or transfer the glass mounting points as required.
- Install New Motor: Mount the motor, reconnect the connector and temporarily reconnect the battery to test operation before reassembling the door trim.
- Test And Adjust: Cycle the window several times to check smooth travel, alignment and seating. Apply light grease to regulators if needed and then reassemble the door panel.

Installation Recommendations
Always disconnect the battery before starting work. Use appropriate trim tools to avoid damaging door panels and retainers. When reinstalling, ensure the glass is correctly seated in the regulator brackets and that all fasteners are torqued to the vehicle manufacturer’s specification. Lubricate moving regulator components with suitable high-pressure grease to reduce wear and noise. After installation, verify switch operation and auto-reverse (if equipped) to confirm safe operation.
Why This Part Fails Most Often
Common failure modes include worn carbon brushes, stripped or broken plastic gears in the motor or regulator, and seizing due to water ingress and corrosion. Frequent use, exposure to moisture, or a binding regulator (bad guides or damaged window tracks) increases load on the motor and accelerates wear. Electrical issues such as corroded connectors or intermittent switch contacts can also mimic motor failure.
Notes For Mechanics And DIYers
This part is typically searched by its part numbers 9647441380 or 9222AV — including these numbers in your shop notes or inventory will help customers find the correct replacement quickly. The motor replacement is straightforward for experienced technicians and competent DIYers, but care is required when handling glass and electrical connections. If the regulator itself shows wear or damage, replace both components together to avoid repeated labor.
