Brought to you by 1AAuto.com your source for quality replacement parts the best service on the internet. Hi, I'm Mike Green. I'm one of the owners of 1A Auto. I want to help you save time and money repairing and maintaining your vehicle. I'm going to use my 20 plus years' experience restoring and repairing cars and trucks like this to show you the correct way to install parts from 1AAuto.com. The right parts installed correctly, that's going to save you time and money. Thank you and enjoy the video.
In this video, we are going to show you window regulator replacement on this 2003 Monte Carlo, same as any 2000 and 2007 Monte Carlo. Tools you'll need are Phillips screwdriver, T27 Torx driver, and flat blade screwdriver, putty knife and regulator, and 10 mm socket and ratchet. Now we obviously start this by removing the door panel and I'm doing this in fast motion. You can probably pick up enough to see how to do it but if you need to see this on regular motion just checkout our other videos for the door panel removal on replacement and once I'm done doing Speedy Gonzalez to this then we'll get to the regulator. Okay, that's just the inside of the door. You are going to want to disconnect your mirror connection here, which pressing on this thumb tub. Okay and you'll actually want to pull that out. Carefully use a screwdriver. You've got to press on it from the other side, pull it through.
Then you carefully want to remove your water shield. You want to do this slowly. You don't want to rip or stretch this too much. The regulator is riding behind here. This piece of form is actually glued to the door. You just want to kind of pull it lightly and up and out. And, now you'll need a 10 mm socket and ratchet, and your regulator is held in here and here by four bolts and then your window motor is held in here by three bolts. What you'll want to do. There are two bolts here. What you are going to want to do is tape up your window and then remove those two 10 mm bolts. You can see I've got some paper tape up here and what I'm going to do now is remove these two bolts. Now if you have a broken regulator and your window is halfway up halfway down, it might be a little tougher to get to these bolts. This one will be easy because it'll probably be this big area here but there's enough room back in here that you should be able to get to it. The other thing is to if your window regulator is broken, what you can do is reach in, and probably force it up by hand, and then tape it up here.
Okay, for the purpose of this demonstration, I'm going to hook up the car window switch again here. You could see there's my mechanism just came down. I took those bolts out. I'm going to unbolt, I'm going to loosen these two bolts up here. Then I'm going to remove these two bolts. Loosen up these bolts. You can take this up now. It might give you a little better access to this connection. It's kind of, like it switches here. Just put a screwdriver on there and disconnect it. Now you lift the regulator up and out. Here's our original regulator. Here's the 1A regulator. I actually have ... I have it backwards here I guess. You can see everything's the same on the 1A regulator. It's going to bolt in just fine. There's the connector from the original motor. Our regulator has a pintail on it but it is the same connector. Actually, makes it a little bit easier to get together. All you are going to do is you are going to transfer these two bolts to the new regulator so you can hang it up in there. This one is fine from the car. This is broken so I'm going to put the original one back in. This one we'll show for reference purposes.
Make sure also that you've threaded the bolts into your window motor. You can fit in there. Fit in there, reach in here to help it out and hang the window motor. I just hang the window motor right there and then this regulator. There's no just fitting this up. Make sure your top is right against your door. So it has to be inside the window. You can feed it up, put those bolts in and then down. Now you can put your two bolts, put them on. Regulator is on tight. Let's get my window motor moved up. There's my connector right down there. Just all the way, click it in. Tighten the window motor up in place. Un-tape the window. All right and then slowly, slide it down. You can see there's the connector on the window and its teeth to make sure that those teeth go on this side while the connector's obviously on that side. The same thing on the front one here. What I can do is get this one in. All right.
I'm going to reconnect my switch. I'm going to run the window up. Obviously, you are also making sure your window regulator works at that point. My other bolt in. You want to push hard. It is kind of a flat spot you have to go in and push on it to get it going. Make sure it's tight. Make sure your rear one's tight here. Just have fun with it. Now that everything's bolted up, I'm going to reconnect my switch and just check, make sure everything goes up and down with no problem. Once you finish your work on the door you want make sure you get it back together well. These rods tend to pop out. Make sure they are up in there and then you press these clips together. They are all secure. This piece that goes in goes down in there and basically just kind of sticks to the door. Just a little sound there. On this, what I like to do is find a reference point, which is this needs to get there and that all winds up. Right, put the door panel. Let's make sure that the mirror is clipped in here. Push that back in or slide it back on, clip in the mirror. Quick testing everything window, mirror, door locks, everything's good.

Hi, I'm Mike from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video, we're going to show you how to replace a window regulator on this 2003 Chevy Monte Carlo. We show you on the driver's side, but the passenger's side has a similar procedure. The items you'll need for this is a new window regulator from 1AAuto.com, a flat blade screwdriver, a Phillips screwdriver, a T25 Torx driver, a putty knife, a 10mm socket, and a ratchet.
Your door panel is held on with four screws. There's a Phillips screw here and a Phillips screw up here. Then down here, onto the pole handle, there are two T25 Torx screws. We'll just fast forward as Mike removes those. Pry out, behind this panel, the flat blade screwdriver, and then slide the panel forward and over the door handle. Then pry out on both sides of your door lock switch while pulling up on it. It should pull free.
There's an indent right here that you want to slide your putty knife into, and then just pry out on the clip. Then reach back behind the door panel and feel for the clips, and just pull out sharply to release the clips. Once you've release them all the way around, just lift the door panel up and then pull it back. Push the tab on this harness and pull it free. Do the same thing for this harness. Your door panel is free. Push on the tab on this harness and disconnect it. Unclip the harness from the door and pull it aside.
Carefully, without damaging the water shield, you want to just peel it back. Pry out on this clip, and then pry out on the adhesive on either side of this foam block. You want to make sure that you keep the adhesive to the block so you can stick it back into place later. If any of it peels off, make sure you push it back into place.
This is the cable style regulator, you can see right here. Usually, what happens is that the cable breaks and then you can actually just grab your window and move it up and down. You want to move it to a point where you can remove this bolt, and this bolt, that hold the regulator to the window. Lift your window up and out. Just remove these two bolts then loosen these five bolts. We'll fast forward as Mike removes and loosens those 10mm bolts. You want to grab your motor, lift it up, and push it through the door and then angle it so that you can see the harness connected to the motor. Using a flat blade screwdriver, just push in on the tab and pry down on the harness. Then, you can pull it free.
Unhook your regulator from the top of the door, then just angle it down and pull it out through the door. On the left is the old window regulator; on the right is the new one from 1A Auto. You can see they're identical and they'll fit exactly the same. What you want to do is swap over your bolts from your old regulator and motor over to your new regulator and motor. We'll fast forward as Mike does that. Feed your new regulator and motor into place. Just clip your motor back onto the door. Do the same with the regulator. Just push the harness back into place on the motor. We'll fast forward as Mike replaces and tightens up those two lower 10mm bolts and then tightens up the other five.
Pull off this weather strip. Put the front of the window in first, and make sure that the front goes into the channel. Then start lowering the top down. We have to lower it down until the top clears the top of the frame. Then make sure you push it in and rotate it back so that it gets into the weather strip off correctly. Once you have it in, you can just let it go up and down, and make sure it's nice and free. Then let it go down to the regulator.
There's two little clips here, just make sure that they're on this side of the regulator bracket, and just put your bolts in. Feed the foam block back into place and re-clip the top of it. We'll just fast forward as Mike replaces the cover around the handle and the water shield. Push your weather strip back into place. Reconnect this harness and re-clip it to the door. To reconnect your door panel, just start off by reconnecting these two harnesses. Just put this switch through here, and then line up these slots with these four tabs. Just lift the door panel up, and push those slots onto the tabs. Then just make sure the clips are wind up, and hit them into place around the sides of the door panel. Push your door lock switch back into this panel. Slide the panel over your interior door handle and slide it back into place. Then just replace those four screws, and you're all set.
