Window stuck
« on: March 14, 2012, 10:38:32 pm »
 Ok drivers window is down and stuck, the winder isn't moving much. I have new rollers but the old ones look ok. Should I be trying to remove the regulator and if so how the F do I get at it with window down? I have looked at YouTube clip but that assumes window is up. Cheers

Craig, I'm guessing you have already tried, but have you tried pulling the window up by hand as you wind it up ??? this will take a bit of pressure of the regulator or scissor depending where the problem is...
The window may have jumped out of it's side guide tracks as well maybe. If you remove the door handle and window crank as well as the door panel you should be able to see inside and see if this is the problem as well.

Good luck.
