how to 2012 chevy cruze window regulator replacement

[@AaronHolcomb]

Quick note about the two top screws that are already screwed in partially, leave those there. They are there on purpose. If you notice, your door panel is slotted to allow the bolt head through and then you slide or “hang” the regulator frame in place. It makes it easier to line up and install the rest of the bolts. Taking them out adds an unnecessary step, just leave them there, hang it, tighten it down! Thanks for your video, a million times over, it helps give everyone an idea of what they’re in for when they pull that door panel off! 👍👊🔧🚗

Amazing video, I only had to watch it once to learn everything I needed, and changed mine in 45 minutes. thanks man!

[@annueltchetche7662]

This was so helpful brother, it took me less than an hour to install my window regulator for the driver site Side… I really appreciate it

[@crgarage1229]

thanks

You’re a bad liar

[@Welbeloved]

Thx for the upload! My motor was still good, so I purchased two new window guides! I'll be performing this in the am.

[@masondellucky4143]

Thank you so much! Knocked this out in no time flat thanks to you

[@pauljohn5554]

Thank you. My wife’s widow regulator broke two days ago .

[@jenniferodaniels7563]

Thank you so much for this. Easier than I thought

[@crgarage1229]

glad i could help

[@martinmata7942]

Great video! Best one I’ve seen especially since you didn’t edit the window being taken out.

[@crgarage1229]

thanks

[@russelljeffers5561]

Great video. I just did my daughter's car yesterday. Very helpful.

[@crgarage1229]

Thanks for the input 👍 remember to subscribe if you haven't already lol

[@johnnyquick7128]

Be very careful when you first detach the door panel. That mirror switch is held in there by a cheap plastic adaptor, that can easily be broken. The only way to get another one is to buy a whole new door panel, or 3D print one. The adaptor is held on with four Torx screws. I ended up criss crossing two strips of sheet metal over the bottom of the switch and screwing them in place with those screws. Between those strips of sheet metal, and the broken adapter, the switch is firmly in place.

Thanks so much maan, I have just replaced mine by your video. It's really helpful. Thanks again. 🙏

[@crgarage1229]

your welcome

[@GeorgiGeorgiev-kw9rw]

Hi, thanks for the video! When you install the holders and attached the window, is there any limiter that will stop the motor when reach upper position for example and do you have to adjust that?

[@dadofmeg]

Very informative video, thank you for the help. I look forward to watching more of your content.

[@crgarage1229]

thank you

[@joshnichols6082]

Thanks!!! Had to replace my regulator 3 times. One more time and I’m replacing the door 😅

[@Chris-jd9wg]

Nice! What are the odds someone else is also replacing their regulator right now besides me? Awesome.

[@crgarage1229]

😂🤣

[@patdarling2036]

I wish this last part was slower after you put white insulation sticker back on I thought there was a metal bracket screwed on top of it with a cable that hook to it I didn't see you do it way to fast othier then that good job bro got the most of it

[@crgarage1229]

sorry not sure what bracket your speaking about but there is a bracket in the middle that the door card screws to

[@TimLevering]

What a great video. Thanks for posting this!

[@marystarrdeguzman4313]

hi how many pins? is it 2 pins or 7 pins terminal connector for chevrolet cruze window?

[@AgWhatsUp]

I noticed when I took out my broken regulator there was a lot of residue, I’m assuming some kind of lubricant. Do you recommend adding lubricant to the replacement regulator?

[@crgarage1229]

no need to i didnt

[@MsCraftLuvr]

Superb video. Very detailed. Thank you

[@crgarage1229]

Thank you for sharing nice video

[@slimslowhammertoes3222]

Having a hard time taking off that second clip at the 4 minute 52 second mark of the video (not the clip with the blue lock but the other clip). Can you explain how you removed that clip? Thank you!

[@tajiaphearse9469]

How long it took and total to do this

[@GabrielJoseRodriguezRecords]

Is it normal for the new motor to be louder? It’s loud when it goes up. Did I do something wrong?

[@crgarage1229]

Not sure what brand motor did you get

[@soyews]

Did you put the plastic paper back on? Leaving it off makes it seem louder.

[@melvindavis3629]

Mine is already down how to bring it up. Should I try to push it up by hand after opening the door cover?

[@crgarage1229]

yes you can loosen it up and pull it up by hand

[@theoneron70]

Great Video. I need to do this to my Cruze. I would think a 2015 is the same process as the 2012. I hope anyways. Thanks!

[@crgarage1229]

It's the same good luck

[@suralhilal2012]

Excellent work, many thanks

[@crgarage1229]

thanks

[@russellmarsden6316]

My 2012 Chevy Cruze LS has a different type of plug in regulator.When I tried new replacement it did not work?

[@russellmarsden6316]

So I just swapped out the new regulator motor with my old one (which had the right connector) and problem solved.Thank you for the video-great help!

[@zacknatural]

The part number he showed 748-974 is a 7 pin connector for windows that auto up and down (where you don’t have to hold the switch to move the window)You can see the controls when he tests the window @20:00. My Cruze LS only has up and down (which is 2 pin)That part number is 751-082.

[@LifeWithKernelLee]

Very helpful thanks

[@522Dusty]

I'm glad I watch this video as well as 1 or 2 others on here, you showed more issues t5hat can go wrong. Would suction cups be better than the painter's tape? I noticed you had trouble having the regulator grab the window.

[@crgarage1229]

Probably I use what I had thanks for watching

[@BurgerFlips]

Thanks for this. Mine just did the same thing

[@russkaine]

so i rolled my passenger window down last night and now it wont go up but i could hear the window motor working. did my window fall off track? Thanks.

[@crgarage1229]

Sounds like it

[@crgarage1229]

Do hear anything when you try to raise it

[@russkaine]

@@crgarage1229 yes just the motor

[@crgarage1229]

Probably just came off track you would have to take the panel off and check

[@russkaine]

@@crgarage1229 I think something broke because I see plastic pieces at the bottom in the door panel

[@chrisheffernan6600]

This is literally the easiest car to change a window regulator on. Took 10 minutes to disassemble, and 15 minutes to reassemble. These regulators are garbage, won't last long, but at least they are easy to change.

[@miaabilez]

Great video!!

[@betoalvarez1454]

Can anyone help me window works fine when car is off but when running it won't work the driver side

[@usecom1]

2016 Limited has 3 ? PN #'s associated with this job. VIN# is only way to clarify which one is used. Doorman no longer makes the part I needed. Dealer only for $186 + tax as of 2022.

[@TttoneDefff]

Can someone please tell me the specifics of the tools I would need??

[@crgarage1229]

T20 toque bit and a 10mm ratchet

[@TttoneDefff]

@@crgarage1229 I can’t get the window up, I was able to remove the panel and got the cover off but the glass is stuck

[@crgarage1229]

Your going to have to unscrew the bolts holding the window on the track then raise the window by pulling it up with your hand then tape it to hold it up

[@mundob4926]

My broken plastic tab was repaired with super glue and baking soda, I’ll see how long it last

[@crgarage1229]

lol

[@Walle1515]

I did just that lol so far so good eventually ill replace it but it started to rain so i had to do something quick

[@ladycarolina5526]

Thanks!

[@jdmiller2091]

I used this video to replace my regulator on my front drivers side and after installation my window would only go up half way and won’t go down all the way please help I don’t know how to fix it!

[@crgarage1229]

It may be where the window attaches try loosen the window and bring the motor down or up then attach the window

[@davidfittanto2385]

When you were doing this, did you happen to see an impact sensors in the door anywhere?
