it's about to pour here in NJ and my dirver side window won't go up!!! the motor is working(i hear it for like 3 seconds) but the window doesnt move. its all the way down and i can't pull it up,its either jammed or i can't get enough force to pull it up. i dont want to keep hitting the switch and burn out the motor if its still good,can it just be off track?how do i get it back on?how do you test the switch?

subbuzz

also what can i use to grab/pull the window without damage/ ruin my tint? i'm at work and can't do much,just wanna get it up,i'll fix later!!!!

i got nothing

but for the moment before it starts raining, put a garbage bag around the window

saiko_cl_duck

sorry dude, but the grinding is the motor working, but your cables on the regulator came off. That means it's time for a new window regulator man


Nope, the motor/regulator is done, cooked, toast. You can really repair it, and it's not cause it came off the track. To get your window up, you're gonna have to pull the door panel off, and then push it up. Then stick something inside the door to keep it up. If you try to stick a wedge in between your window and the inside frame, you'll run the risk of fawking up your tint


Have fun

subbuzz

thanks jk i already got it bagged



:angryfire
i heard the motor going so i thought it had a fighting chance...
again, fuck!!!!!!!!! i just spent mad $$$ on mods, now this....i hate this fucking car!!!!!! i try to be nice and make her look all pretty and this is how she treats me!!!!!!!!

Sorry, but you've gotta expect some maintenance costs on a car that's 9 years old. If you're this upset over a $100 regulator, I'd hate to be around you when the timing belt and water pump need replacing.

subbuzz

^^^i expect it, it just pisses me off, every other week there is a "maintenance cost". in less than a year i did batt,atlternator,starter,heated driver seat died,control arm,need an o2 sensor,tranny slippin,just to name a few things off the top of my head,not including $$$ on mods

subbuzz

i know its only like $100 but it still pisses me off, i have big plans and these minor setbacks are killin me.....

saiko_cl_duck

100 bucks

Shouldnt cost over 65-70 bucks

subbuzz

hopefully cheaper,(i got the hook-up).......well it just started raining,hope my hefty holds up. at least it started late, soon i go to my friends shop and hear how my car is a and i should've got a mustang.:shakehead

saiko_cl_duck

no, you did the right thing, no one wants a rust-ang.

JPhat22CL

when mine went in my old accord i used a suction cup to hold the window up. ghetto but looks better than the old shopping bag and duct tape

agranado

damn.. sucks bro. i would hate to worry about window regulator problems, though I know they're right around the corrner for me.

CL Platano

Stop bitchin and just fix it or trade it in and drive the neon

SupraManAG

SupraManAG

The abs sensors are real finicky, I have replaced 3 wheel speed sensors, and a cv axle, and my light STILL comes on while driving, if yours went off, you should be fine.

subbuzz

nothin major, got a aem cai and aem pulleys on the way, by e-town hope to have headers/exhaust
5 min to read before this is deleted
she's in the shop so she can't see this i'm taking this out before 5 min edit
i do have doubts about the h22 only cuz the 5-speed.you'll prob get me with cai/e/h/p but i dont care.i talk cuz it's fun. we aint goin for pinks so........ :whocares: white will give her best(if she don't fall apart by then)

subbuzz

SupraManAG

Im doing this for the fun non the less. Ull see some of my mods at the april meet
Hope there is still one. The car isnt running currently. Im waiting on on replacements from MSD. I had a defective item. Its taking forever.

CL Platano

Can't you tell the car aint going as fast when you are riding the eb? I see you pay attention to your speedometer because there is a red light that says brake..NOOB..

subbuzz

that sux,i'll be there the 30th wanna see this beast if she's up.she looks good from thread i revived....

subbuzz

i'm putting in 30+ hours ot (7 day weeks some 16 hr days)i just wanna get home.i'm tired as f*ck...cut me some slack.

ib_jimmy

use duct tape to hold the window up. mine went out on me the same day it started raining too.

subbuzz

well, the regulator is new will be here tomorrow hopefully.she is garaged at the shop until then.i now drive moms 94 accord lx.

so don't worry about the abs light right?

subbuzz
