Thank you so much for this video! I was going to take the car to a shop until I found this video and decided to do it myself. Not only did everything go smoothly thanks to you, but I want to point out how good you are at making videos like this. You set up the most ideal camera angle (on a stand) and weren't constantly waving the camera around, zooming in and out everywhere and giving us confusing perspectives. You then did take the camera and properly gave us a closer look when necessary. You also spoke clearly and did a good job explaining everything that needed to be explained without rambling on about it. 10/10 perfect video. Thanks again!

Crooked Firestone wanted to charge my son $ 510 to do this, but I could do it in about 45 minutes, thanks for the video. The part is $ 148 at orlies and I will save him the difference. Big savings. 😁

Just fixed my window, took far longer than you did but I managed it!! Thanks for the video! If I could make a suggestion, a list of the sizes of tools/what tools you need (or your suggestions) in the description box would be amazing. I ended up figuring it out myself, but had a tough time 😅

Follow up to my post. On the 2013 Chevy Cruze, the release tab on the window connector was blue not red. Just pull out on it and then pull the connector apart. My blue tab came out of the connector, which wasn't a big deal. When I assembled it, I just slid it back in and it grabbed.
@reduffysm2 жыл бұрын
Same here with the blue tab. My problem was the window was frozen shut and when I tried to put it down the window came out of the rubber clamps. I just had to loosen the clamp nuts and put them back on the window and re-tighten. Video was a great help...Thanks.

I just replaced my driver side regulators. Thanks for the video. Now i have a problem where the window is going up very very slowly. You can tell it is struggling. Im scard to use it. I dont want to get my window stuck in the down postion again. Do you know why it would be doing this? The motor worked at perfect sppeed before the regulator broke.
@frankmorris5224 Жыл бұрын
Thank you for this! What if the window is down and won't come back up? What could I do to get the window up before I start this process?
@740auto6 Жыл бұрын
If you push the switch down and you hear it trying to go down but hear nothing when going up, it’s probably the switch. You can follow the same process and remove the clips from the window and tape or wedge the window up temporarily.

@adrianjlive49224 ай бұрын
The regulator from our driver side was broken into pieces, just crazy, and we rarely use our 2015 Chevy Cruze and it is always inside a garage, so we went to the dealership and they gave us a quote for $800, and I said no and then this was one of the first videos I found, and right on, bought the part online and it is now installed and working like charm, one little detail that I still can’t go around, there is a message on screen that says “Open driver window, then Close driver window”, I did that and also try some calibration instructions that I’ve found where you open the window and wait 5 secs and then close the window and wait 5 secs but none of it works the message is still present. Anyone has any idea on how to fix that? Other than that everything works fine

I checked and everything is plugged and I also checked to see if any of the wires are frayed or if the window track was catching it but it was fine.

Mine is doing this too, also not honking when I double click/lock with the FOB. My window is also constantly showing the open/close window warning in the dash info and most of the time my window will auto roll down, but not up. If my window rolls up, horn doesn’t honk or radio stays on. 🤔 🤷🏼♀️
