Procedure C: Adjusting Door To Body & Window To Rear Sash Frame

ADJUSTING DOOR ALIGNMENT TO THE BODY AND DOOR WINDOW ALIGNMENT TO THE REAR SASH FRAME





1. Observe the door for alignment to the body along its rear edge. If the rear edge of the door is not flush to the body, adjust the door hinges and striker plate.





2. Close the window fully and observe its alignment to the rear sash frame. If the window is outboard (sticks out) at the top corner of the sash frame, adjust the sash frame in the following manner:

- Roll down the window fully.

- Bend the sash frame slightly outward, by hand, about 1 mm.

- Retest window operation.

3. If the window operates normally, reinstall the door panel trim and return the vehicle to the customer. (Refer to the NOTE under Procedure A.) If the window is still difficult to operate, go to PROCEDURE D for vehicles built before 3/92, or PROCEDURE E for vehicles built after 3/92.
