Hi, I'm Don from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and the next time you need a part for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video, we're going to show you how to replace the window bracket on your power window regulator. We do that using the window regulator repair kit from 1AAuto.com. We'll show you on this 2006 Jeep Liberty. We'll show on the driver's side, but the passenger side is a similar procedure. The items you'll need for this is a new window regulator repair kit from 1AAuto.com, a flat blade screwdriver, a Phillips screwdriver, a 10mm socket and ratchet, a drill with a 3/16 bit, pliers, and a rivet gun.
Start off by prying out this little panel behind your door handle. Now remove this Phillips screw and this one down in your pull cup. We'll just fast-forward as Don does this. Now pull out around the door panel to release the clips. When you get to the top, pry the door panel out. Once the clip pops free, pull the door panel up and off.
On the back of your door panel, you want to release the clip on your door handle rod, and pull the door handle rod down and out. Then you want to push the tabs on both harnesses and release them. Now you want to remove the speaker. It's held in by these three Phillips screws. We'll just fast-forward as Don removes those. Once you remove all three bolts, pull the speaker forward, push on the tab on the harness, and disconnect it. Then just remove your water shield. You want to just carefully peel that off the door and pull the harnesses and your door handle rod through it. Ours was a little bit easier, because it had been removed before. Take your time not to damage it.
Use a flat blade screwdriver and pry out these clips. Now push the window back and out of the regulator, and then push it up. If your window is in a different location when it breaks, you do the same process wherever it's at. Make sure your window is up and tape it up. Now loosen these three nuts. Then lift it up and push those studs through the holes. Now do the same thing for these three bolts on your motor. Push the red clip on your power window motor, and then push the tab on the harness and pull it free. We're just going to fast-forward a little bit here as he works the regulator out of the window. We want to lift the regulator up to the top inside corner of the door, and then feed it down through that hole. Take some time to maneuver it out.
Now, using your drill, just drill out the old rivet right here. Now use a flat blade screwdriver and pry up these tabs. Remove this 10mm bolt. Now pry that plastic part up off the rail, pull it back, and your window bracket will pull down and off. Now twist the window bracket off the spring.
Take your new window bracket and twist it on. Now slide the window bracket back onto the rail, and clip that plastic part back onto the rail. Using pliers, push those two clips back down. Now use a rivet gun to put a rivet back in the spot where you drilled out the older one. Push these clips back into place. Replace that 10mm bolt not all the way so you can hang the rail back up in the door.
Now feed your window regulator back up into place. Then you want to just angle it so you can get your motor and your regulator back into place so you can hang them up. Then put the bolts through the holes and slide them down. Then you want to do the same thing with the motor. Then we'll just fast-forward as Don tightens all six of those bolts back up.
Reconnect your motor harness and push that red clip back in. Remove the tape on your window, and carefully lower the window back down into the door. You want to line up the studs on the window with the slots on the regulator. Once you have them lined up, just push the window back into the regulator. We'll fast-forward here as he puts the door handle rod, the lock, and the harnesses back through the water shield, and then pushes the water shield back into place. Reconnect your speaker, line it back up, and replace those three bolts. We'll fast-forward as Don does this and tightens them up.
Now to replace your door panel, push the harnesses back into place. Push the door handle rod back into place and clip it. Then line your door panel up, and push it down onto the window sill and over that lock. Now make sure your clips are lined up, and hit them in around the door panel. Now we'll just fast-forward here as Don replaces those two Phillips screws and replaces that little panel behind the door handle.
