Steps
Open the door and clear access
Remove the door panel using the appropriate trim procedure, then remove the center support bracket. Keep the moisture barrier intact so it can be resealed.
Secure the glass and remove the regulator
Separate the glass from the regulator and tape the glass firmly in the raised position. Disconnect the motor harness, remove the regulator fasteners, and guide the assembly out of the door.
Install the new regulator
Feed the replacement through the access opening and secure its tracks. Reconnect the motor, align the glass with its mounting clips, and fasten the glass to the regulator.
Test and finish assembly
Operate the window through its full travel and watch for binding or uneven movement. Once it moves correctly, reinstall the support bracket, moisture barrier, and door trim.
