    I've noticed this on some aftermarket regulator/motors. All I did was take the wire connection that goes to the motor and flip the wire positions in the connector. A little pick and the contacts should come out of the plastic connector, then just swap places with them.

    Yep, I've installed 3 that came like that. Just get a small screwdriver or a pick, and swap the 2 wires.
