What if the motor is dead and the window is all the way down
I JUST FIXED MY WINDOW WITH THE HELP WITH THIS VIDEO JUST EARNED MY SUBSCRIPTION
I wanna do this since the motor on my '10 is about to kick the bucket, but man handling that glass is making me nervous lol
Excellent video!
Great video showing how to access and replace the regulator.
However, based on my experience, you ALSO HAVE TO FIX THE ROOT CAUSE of the problem that caused the regulator to fail. If not, the new regulator may prematurely fail after one year…
My 97 Civic is over 23 years old. In my case, I additionally had to PARTIALLY REMOVE the rubber window "run channel" (I only removed the left and right "sides" of the channel), CLEAN THE CHANNELS of accumulated dirt (I used cotton swabs soaked in "Goo Gone" but I guess soapy water would work as well).
In addition, it was easy to completely REMOVE THE WINDOW from the door. Once removed, it was important to thoroughly CLEAN THE FRONT AND BACK EDGES of the window.
Finally, I read that the "run channel" should be LUBRICATED WITH SILICONE GREASE. In particular, I read that Honda's Shin-Etsu Silicone Grease, part @-9013 should be used to lubricate the channels. My local Honda dealer price-matched another dealer's price; I paid $18.15 for one tube.
Since I had gone through two regulators, each lasting only about one year, I GENEROUSLY GREASED the channel AND both sides of the window's left and right edges BEFORE REINSTALLING THE WINDOW.
After re-assembly, the window moved up and down without any hesitancy. In comparison, the other windows moved much slower – so, I will do preventive maintenance for the other windows by removing the windows, and thoroughly cleaning the window edges AND run channel. Cleaning removes the accumulated dirt, which allows the window to move freely, and reduces the load on the window regulator motor and assembly. Hopefully, reducing the load on the regulator will prevent the regulator from failing again.
Would this work with a honda civic 07 coupe? The regulator might be different but would the overall process be similar?
7 minutes in and im already lost and tired! Lol
What is the symptom why you have to replace this part?
You show using the window switch (regulator) to get to the bracket at the bottom of the glass. But the motor doesn’t work remember. You should show what to do if motor is shot. Like cut the wire. Other than that excellent video.
I'm sure I could take the door apart like this, but I don't think I could put it back together.
Thanks all done
Just did it this morning. You don't have to remove the wires that connect to the door handle. There is enough room to just let the door panel hang off to the side.
Great video, but my issue isn't the motor assembly – I have a bad switch. However, the window is stuck in the down position. So, instead of connecting the master switch to move the window enough to see the screws in this video, how can I move the window back to the "up" position manually until I get a new switch?
Damn he made that look easy.
I just did this on my wife's 08 civic, window works properly but when I go to start the car the alarm starts going off…. Now what?
This was so fun to do,so easy too,now the part where worries happen is when removing the glass,be really careful with it,its more fragile than you think,and when putting it back,dont assume that the holder is going to hold it while you get the screws to screw it in,it can slip and fall down,also ensure the window is perfectly aligned with the rubber,before you use the motor to move it,ensure there is nothing in its way,no cables or anything,and make sure again that its aligned.that is only the 2nd hardest part,the main hard part is putting that god damn lock cable back on the plastic.
