Passenger window mullered

[chris_marshall]

My passenger window has stopped working it goes up and down partly on its own but needs help going the whole way. Dont know if someone has leaned on it. Any ideas?

If it's like mine was, a part snapped off the mechanism.

No option but to replace the entire window regulator.
Was about £60 a few years ago.

Could be sticking in the side runners. Common problem. Use some vaseline (or ky jelly if your that way inclined
Rub it into the rubber guides up the side of the window

Right got the door card off atm having a good look and the mechanism seems fine it hasn't come out of the runners. Just the scraping noise when its going up and down and stops about mid way. The noise appears to be coming from the motor end though its hard to tell. Any ideas?

Try some silicon sparay or wd40,just to be sure before you fork out on it.They can get a bit dusty over the years

Fixed it, the plastic cog on the regulator with the two wires clipped on had lapped over each other just re-threaded it now works ok. Put it all back together and now the service light has come on

you probably left the window control disconnected when you took the door card off... car gets confused due to the switch for deactivating the passenger side airbag. unscrew it and check the wires are plugged in....
