Front Door Window Regulator: Service and Repair

Glass/Regulator Replacement

1. Remove:
- Door panel
- Plastic cover




2. Carefully move the glass until you can see the bolts, then loosen them. Slide the guide rearward, remove the glass from the guide, and carefully pull the glass out through the window slot.

NOTE: Take care not to drop the glass inside the door.




3. Disconnect the connector, and detach the harness clip, then remove the regulator through the hole in the door.

NOTE: Scribe a line around the rear roller guide bolt to show the original adjustment.




4. Grease all the sliding surfaces of the regulator where shown.

NOTE:
- If necessary, remove the power window motor from the regulator.
- Before removing the power window motor, scribe a line across the sector gear and regulator.

5. Installation is the reverse of the removal procedure.

NOTE: Roll the glass up and down to see if it moves freely without binding. Also make sure that there is no clearance between the glass and glass run channel when the glass is closed. Adjust the position of the glass as necessary.
