Hello everyone I am new to this forum. I was wondering if anyone would have a power window teardown link or diagram for this car they could post. the motor is broke and I would like to replace it, but it is givin me alot of problems. The driver side window is stuck all the way down and it is damn cold. If anyone has any tips those would be appreciated too. thank you
For the first part of your question Auto Zone's web site has info on the removing of the window, but it is really incomplete. Here is additional info:
First remove the door trim cover. The first thing to do there is remove the window vent cover. I have this small thin blade knife with a sharp point I use to remove the screw cover on the vent cover. This is real hard to not mar it or scratch something. I hear new ones are available at a dealer. Once you get that out remove the screw and the vent cover.
Next remove the center of the door handle and the two screws for it. Becareful not to mar it either. Next pop out the screw cover on the front corner of the door this one is easy, remove the screw. Then on the outside edges remove the screw covers (if yours has them) one on the front edge, and two on the rear edge and bottom. Then the screws, 5 total. Next pop the screw cover out from the middle of the door handle pocket and remove that screw.
Remove the door handle bezel. This can be a problem I use a small screwdriver to pop out the door lock switch and then unfasten it. Then at the front edge by the master switch there is a spot that the bezel clips to the master switch, you must get that loose then there is a similar type clip just behind the door lock to get loose. If you break these the bezel will be loose, so take your time and be careful. I learned this on junk car so I'll admit I've busted a few. Once the bezel is off just pull the door panel from the bottom and it will come loose then lift up and off the door. Remove the window welt dont bend it. If it seems loose just pinch the part that goes on the door a bit to tighten it back up and fit good.
It takes me about 1/2 hour swap stuff out in a door now. Remove the speaker, and those speaker plugs always stick hard. I got so after removing the screws I just grab the speaker and give it a good yank then fix the inside of the clips. You may want to pry them off with a screwdriver. Remember you have to reinstall the vapor barrier so, I take a knife and after getting a spot started I pull and stretch the adhesive a bit then chase around the door with a knife cutting the sticky adhesive from the door as I pull. I do use a jumper battery w/ a 40 amp fuse, and a 18" long pig tail with a window motor connector on it. To change direction just swap the leads. Move the regulator to align the bolts with the holes in the door to remove the glass from the carrier. With yours at the bottom it is going to be more than a bit of trouble. Another thing you might try is to remove the four bolts for the track and the three bolts on the motor, and pushing the whole thing up. All those bolts use an 8mm socket. I would really try to raise the window using the switch and pulling or pushing up on the window to get it to align with the two holes in the door. After removing the spreadder bolts (14mm socket) removing the black plastic keeper clips from through the carrier and the glass, can be a PIA. They are three pronged and you must get them squeezed while reaching behind the glass with just your finger tips, then at the same time push them through the glass. Sometimes you get them almost flush with the back of the glass and they want to sitck there. Dammmm..... at this point I usually push on them with the side of a hard plastic screwdriver handle. IF you have gotten this all done you are in for the easy part. I would reinstall the window welt on the edge of the door and push the glass all the way up. I have found the glass will stay there most of the time while completing the rest of the work. If not wedge it in place. Then install your new regulator and motor. The carrier must be aligned with those holes to install the glass but you can hook up the motor and do that. You will see there is a clip on the outside of the carrier that the glass fits in. When properly placed the holes in the glass and carrier align. I use the 14mm socket to push the retainer clips in the carrier and glass then install the spreader bolts.
Put the door panel on and your good to go have an adult beverage, well I do. LOL
