window pulley broken
I heard a snap and something fell off into my drivers side door cavity while rolling my window up this morning. The window motor still works, but one of the metal cables is hanging loose that I guess is used to help raise the window. I pulled the door panel off and I found the parts in the bottom of the door cavity, but not sure how to put it back together or even how to get at that area. Any ideas? The area it appears the cable connects to is in the inside center of the door cavity.

Update: Acura says I have to replace the entire drivers side window motor assembly. Can anyone comment on how to do this? I see the three screws that appear to hold it to the door, but would like some advice before tearing things apart further than they already are.
Thanks

Yes. I replaced it myself and managed to get everything back together w/o breaking / ruining anything. The part is $102 or so from the dealership. You have to take off the door panel and remove the window to get at the pulley assembly. Once the window is out it's very obvious and very simple to swap out the motor and cables. It sounds like a daunting task, but really it wasn't too bad as long as you pay attention and have plenty of soft towels to lay the window and door interior skin on. No special tools needed other than a nut driver wrench came in handy to tighten / untighten the bolts holding the window in the slide assembly.
