Broken window regulator

Post by GRPABT1 »

I just went wheeling and when I got home I wound my window up but something broke and the handle fre spins with the window not moving now. It 90% of the way up atm. I pulled the door trim off and had a look and from what I can see the spline that the handle connects to must have a gear that turns the big toothed arm. Problem is I think the spline is free spinning and turning nothing.

Now is there a fix for this or am I up for a new window, window regulator or whole door? If I find one in a wreckers does all the window gear come out easy enough?

I watched the wrecker take it out of the door. That was all i needd to know to put it back in mine.

Of course it turns out that the regulator wasn't the actual problem..... :cry:

What was the problem with yours? Similar to mine? My wrecker gives me discounts for removing it myself :D

The metal channel inside the door that the window is supposed to be guided by has broken free of the door and is now hanging off the rubber/felt lining, rattling and tapping annoyingly. I have to get in there and rip it out as there is no way it can be re-welded in there. I just have to lift the front of the window up a bit when i wind it up, and live with it.

This had made the window harder to close, and i was trying to force it via the winder, which had shredded all the little teeth off te plastic winder.

the new reg. does work a little easier with that said.
