driver side window - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

my driver side window goes down fine. But coming up it sounds like its going to break. I can't yet determine if there is any different in the actual ability of the window going up and down in comparison to the other windows. However I think it drags on the way up. What is the cause and what should I do?

my passenger side window does that as well. sadly my driver side window goes up funky and i have to fix it. i'd be interested in hearing what to do to fix it as well.

new window regulators for both of you... get them on ebay, install them yourselves, its REALLY easy, ive done it 3 times. if you need to, i can walk you through it with directions...

Can you make a lil DIY thread for us. Im pretty sure 75% of everyone on this forum has the same problem with at LEAST one of their windows. A lot of people would benefit from it. Thanks in Advance Dave.

fucker... you know what... im gonna just start a page on my website about guide to do shit... and ONCE THAT SITE IS UP, ill let you know mo money!

this is really easy though... (regarding passenger side... reverse for driver)take off the door panel, 2 screws on bottom, 2 on left side, 2 plugs on right side(door jam side) 2 in the arm rest, one in the little compartment in the bottom... that should do it... if not, find the other one...

THEN unplug the stock unit, unbolt from the door frame, 2 or 3 nuts or bolts, i forget... then unbolt the regulator from the glass... hold the glass tightly or get a helper monkey... installation is reverse of removal... thank you all, GOODNIGHT!
