If it worked before the regulator was replaced, something was done incorrectly. If it didn't work before the regulator was replaced, the electric motor, switch or wiring may be At Fault.
Remove the window motor from regulator. This will free the window for movement.
I found having a repair manual specifically for your make/model/year a great start. I'm in the same boat and this is what I have found out and will be doing next weekend. First, I had the a screw placed in the regulator to keep the window up until I am able to replace the window regulator. The regulator comes complete with the motor, so what I will do is remove the current regulator have a friend holding up the window has I am doing this so I wont have to remove the window (to skip a step), then just attach the new regulator in the same place as the original.
You would need to remove the door panel, and them remove the splash shield from the door. Once your inside the door, you would need to unbolt the regulator from the door and also the window. An instructional video has also been included that will show you a step by step process on how to do this.
i found it totally easier to by-pass the switch than to try to repair it just cut it and splice , i did and its been perfect since
power window moter is bad.
Remove the door panel.Peel back the water shield, behind the door panel.Unclip the wiring harness from the window motor.Remove the 4 screws that hold the window regulator in place.When you remove the top bolt hold the window up with your hand so that it doesn't crash down.Now you can take the window regulator out of the door.An instructional video has also been included below, so that you can see this process.Hope this helps,1ATony
The plasic end at the end of the cable track has been broken off. The only fix is to replace the regulator assembly.
It probably hasn't fallen off the track. The part of the window regulator that attaches to the window is probably broken. Mine did the same thing. I took the window and regulator out of the car and epoxied the part back together and then reinstalled it. Been over a year now and still working fine.
Yes, but I doubt your problem is simply that it is "off-track." Off-track refers to the glass slipping out of the two felt/rubber lined u-shaped channels that the glass goes up and down in, on either side of the glass. Frankly, unless the window channel mountings have come loose from the door, or they have been taken loose and not put back together right, or the door has collision damage, it is unlikely that your problem is merely that the window has come off track. It is more likely that you have a bad window regulator. The windows are run up and down by a cable and pully system in the window regulator assembly, and it is more highly likely that a plastic pulley has broken, the cable is now bound up in the regulator, and you need a new regulator.
you cannot put the window "back on track" the window regulator failed and will need to be replaced, good luck. What kind of lame answer is that? Yours might have been - not everybodies is.
bad master switch,bad window motor.bad window regulator,bad body control module
Yes. If you're talking about the tailgate window, the problem most likely started because the regulator (the part that transfers the power of the motor to the window is rusted so it can no longer move. Sometimes the motor can be salvaged; and simply replacing the regulator will do the trick. Before you replace the motor, you might want to check the window lock button. I accidently pushed it once while cleaning my 92 4Runner. The rear window would'nt come down and I thought it was a burnt out motor. I then discovered the lock button had been activated and after deactivating it (pushing it), the window worked fine.
