Front Door Window Regulator: Service and Repair

Glass/Regulator Removal

1. Remove:
- Door panel
- Plastic cover
- Inner molding

2. Carefully move the glass until you can see the bolts, then remove them. Carefully pull the glass out through the window slot.






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




3. Disconnect the connector, then remove the regulator through the hole in the door.




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