SERVICE INSTRUCTION:

1. Remove the appropriate door casing (TOPIx Workshop Manual section 501-05).

2. Cycle the window regulator up and down five (5) times to verify the origin of the suspected noise.





3. Using a suitable tool, stop the movement of the window regulator pulley(s) in turn to verify the origin of the noise.

^ If the pulley wheel is held stationary and the noise continues, then the noise is not originated by the axial of the pulley(s).
