You show using the window switch (regulator) to get to the bracket at the bottom of the glass. But the motor doesn’t work remember. You should show what to do if motor is shot. Like cut the wire. Other than that excellent video.

This is very well done, full disassembly and reassembly. No nonsense. Kudos to the demo tech AND the camera assist.

Great guide! Thank you for the detailed instruction. Was able to replace mine in about an hour, no sweat.

Great video, but my issue isn't the motor assembly - I have a bad switch. However, the window is stuck in the down position. So, instead of connecting the master switch to move the window enough to see the screws in this video, how can I move the window back to the "up" position manually until I get a new switch?

Focusing to every detail, all the steps needed… thanks for the guidance!

I JUST FIXED MY WINDOW WITH THE HELP WITH THIS VIDEO JUST EARNED MY SUBSCRIPTION

You have THE BEST instructional videos!

Great video showing how to access and replace the regulator. However, based on my experience, you ALSO HAVE TO FIX THE ROOT CAUSE of the problem that caused the regulator to fail. If not, the new regulator may prematurely fail after one year... My 97 Civic is over 23 years old. In my case, I additionally had to PARTIALLY REMOVE the rubber window "run channel" (I only removed the left and right "sides" of the channel), CLEAN THE CHANNELS of accumulated dirt (I used cotton swabs soaked in "Goo Gone" but I guess soapy water would work as well). In addition, it was easy to completely REMOVE THE WINDOW from the door. Once removed, it was important to thoroughly CLEAN THE FRONT AND BACK EDGES of the window. Finally, I read that the "run channel" should be LUBRICATED WITH SILICONE GREASE. In particular, I read that Honda's Shin-Etsu Silicone Grease, part @-9013 should be used to lubricate the channels. My local Honda dealer price-matched another dealer's price; I paid $18.15 for one tube. Since I had gone through two regulators, each lasting only about one year, I GENEROUSLY GREASED the channel AND both sides of the window's left and right edges BEFORE REINSTALLING THE WINDOW. After re-assembly, the window moved up and down without any hesitancy. In comparison, the other windows moved much slower - so, I will do preventive maintenance for the other windows by removing the windows, and thoroughly cleaning the window edges AND run channel. Cleaning removes the accumulated dirt, which allows the window to move freely, and reduces the load on the window regulator motor and assembly. Hopefully, reducing the load on the regulator will prevent the regulator from failing again.

Hi, I need to replace this part in my Honda. Thanks for this video! It is very helpful :) Great Work!

thanks you saved me some money. I was able to get the window to roll down with the bad motor. I just tapped it with a hammer and it worked but got hot quickly. The whole process took about 30 minutes to replace.

Did all of this. Turns out the fuse was just blown out. 🤦‍♂️ Thanks for the video though straight forward and simple and in the end of the day I learned something new so not so bad. 😂

What about if the power is not working and I want to replace it?? You lift the window up but i cant

You need to show us what to do if the power window motor is shot and the window is stuck in the up position where you cannot get to the screws. You had a working power window motor and you just hooked it up and rolled down the window. When the motor doesn't work what do you do?

Cool, did the swap in under a hour. Thanks!!

5:35 if the motor died (broken) how to raise or down the window ? This is my case.

Just did it this morning. You don't have to remove the wires that connect to the door handle. There is enough room to just let the door panel hang off to the side.

Great video well explained thanks 👍👍

I know this video is super old but if anyone is like me that watches this: yes it is bs that they use a working window in the repair video. But all you have to do is get a second person to reach into the window slot from the top, pull and hold the window in place for you so you can see the correct bolts.

So i have an 08 Honda civic ex same problem driver side window not working , but my motor doesn’t work and its stuck in the down position (all the way down). How do I get the window up to get to those screws with the 10mm ratchet?? You had a running/working window i don’t. Help 🙏. Great video

Thourough explanation. I am not a car guy in the least. How do I know which one to purchace (2 or 6 pins) for a friend. Thank-you

Did you applied new glue on the vapor protector or just sticked it on the old one? Will it hold good?

If the motor is dead how do i get the window down to remove the 2 bolts?

Damn he made that look easy.

Great video!! I'll be doing this pretty soon. Thanks

This was so fun to do,so easy too,now the part where worries happen is when removing the glass,be really careful with it,its more fragile than you think,and when putting it back,dont assume that the holder is going to hold it while you get the screws to screw it in,it can slip and fall down,also ensure the window is perfectly aligned with the rubber,before you use the motor to move it,ensure there is nothing in its way,no cables or anything,and make sure again that its aligned.that is only the 2nd hardest part,the main hard part is putting that god damn lock cable back on the plastic.

Excellent video!

Magnificent video

If both windows are getting stuck would the problem be the switch or fuses instead of the motor?

But your window worked. Doesn’t really explain how to do it if you can’t use the power windows to adjust the height.

Would this work with a honda civic 07 coupe? The regulator might be different but would the overall process be similar?

7 minutes in and im already lost and tired! Lol

So why does my window bounce down a bit on automatic mode , but manually it don't?? And ideas please

Does this also work for a 2door 2010 civic??

What is the symptom why you have to replace this part?

What if the motor is dead and the window is all the way down

Honda Civic 2006 lx 4 doors , copilot window run off track, how do I fix it ??😔😔😔

I wanna do this since the motor on my '10 is about to kick the bucket, but man handling that glass is making me nervous lol

What I have to do if window is stuck all the way down

I just did this on my wife's 08 civic, window works properly but when I go to start the car the alarm starts going off.... Now what?

I'm sure I could take the door apart like this, but I don't think I could put it back together.
