window problem

[jsl222]

My pass. side window on my coupe has been bugging me for a while now. I can lower it without a problem, but when I put it back up, the back of the window sticks out(about a couple centimeters.) I had to push the window into the stripping with my hands while pulling it up. Is this a problem with my regulator or motor?

Remove the door panel and take a look at where the window is attached to the regulator. If it go's up I don't see how it could be the motor. I had to replace two window regulators in the past month. Drivers side on the 96, passenger on the 94. Two down two to go

Well I didn't actually replace them myself, but i watched my mechanic do it!

ahh I don't know. I love my 3rd gen but it's giving me so many small problems that I'm actually considering selling the dang thing and getting an older model integra(da)
I'm throwing $600 this month alone to fix some of the major problems, but even after that I'd need to replace the weather stripping, the windows, the sunroof(it has no motor), remove rust from my rear quarter panel and get a new set of rims because the crappy ones I have now are killing my hub. It just sucks being a broke college student..sigh

^^Haha But yeah, go with what eyeball96 says about this I'd say. Check for damage/binding to the regulator once you get the door panel off.

same thing happen to me, did you get hit anywhere the side mirrors or did anything happen to it, cus it might be that, you just have to take off the mirror and with a flat head straighten out the slot where the window roll up and your done because the same thing happen to mine, my pop backed up into my side mirror and broked it, after i got the mirror fixed my window was like yours too...but yea try that out

[jsl222]

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll try it out when I get the time. HAHA also, my pass. side window is demented. I have to push DOWN on the button(on both the driver's side and pass. side) to roll the window up, and pull up to put it down. sigh...

The wires are switched on the motor...they must have be replaced before!
