Problem with Window was created by GlennS
I let the window on the passenger side down completely; it would not go back up. I hear and feel the motor turning in each direction, the window does not move. It seems the mechanism that attaches to the window has dis-engaged. Fortunately the car is garaged. Does anyone know the source of good instructions for removing the door panel and reattaching the mechanism to the window?

Thanks,

Glenn

I always check Greg's site first, and it has removal instructions for a number of years: nichols.nu/cat06.htm

I had a failure in my car once, and it was when the nylon roller broke so the window fell off the track. I suspect you could get a replacement roller. At the time a machine shop owning neighbor just made me up some in metal that worked fine (I replaced both sides).

Its not that hard, just look close at the panel and start removing screws.
Read the page Stan gave you and when you put it back together do not over tighten the screws

Stan,

I took the door panel off. I can see that part of the window guide is broken and I can see that it looks like the roller you described. My main question is how do you get access to those components? Th access port is small and you can really get your hand in there.

It seems I would have to pull the window out...any advice?

Thanks,

Glenn

I wish I could help But I have not done one. Has anyone replaced a widow regulator?
