How do I fix this? I don't have any clue how to take the front door panel off. I have a Haynes manual here but it dosent seem to tell me how to fix the window, and Im a newbie. Its a 92'

Thanks

Two clips on the end of the door. (Push button, pull out) One screw under armrest (covered) on screw in the map book holder(covered) and 2 screws on the other end of the door panel (gets covered when door closes, as well as plastic covers) then pry out the door handle trim (inside the car). My window is off track too... but not that bad, good luck.

sounds like you guys need new window regulators? Common problem for a lot of camrys.

I should take this somewhere to get fixed then? Or can I just put the window back on track?

Wait maybe mine isnt off track because you said yours isnt "that bad"

Mine is bad I raised the window to the top then a big clunk sound now the window goes down if you push it down but it wont go up at all no sounds or nothing when I press the switch.

Ok thanks

I have a similar problem with my 93 LE. When I raise the window, part of it goes out of the window track and it leaves a big airway on the side of the window. If I hold the window in place while raising it, I can get it to go in straight, but as soon as I open it, it pops back out. I've been told it's an easy fix, I just haven't actually sat down to take the panel off yet. Yours is probably a similiar problem.

all sounds like worn window regulators to me, I have replaced countless regulators in those body style camrys.

window regulator. check out eBay to buy it. It cost about 100-200 if u get it from Toyota and they charge you anotther 120$ to put it in.

It took me 10 min to take out everything as I have done this 3 times and about 20 min to put it back on..
The first time took me about 2-3 hrs as I had a hard time getting the door lever out.

There is one person on eBay that I bought my regulator from http://myworld.ebay.com/am-autoparts second one actually.
So far, I have changed 3. Bought one from a person on eBay initially and the quality was so bad that it would go up when it decides to, bought a new one to replace my new faulty one from this AM dude. Works well since 04.
Just replaced another window regulator (passanger) with his parts.
