Got the part and went to the park and fixed it in less than 45 minutes. Thank you for this awesome video.

[@tev2204]

You are the father I never had. Thank you. I was able to replace my window regulator with your help

[@lowtones2]

Very well done video. Any DIY-er can easily follow this one and end up with the job well done. Thanks for taking the time!

[@jordyc4408]

One of the best videos I’ve ever used to repair something! Detailed and was the exact steps needed to complete the job. Thanks

[@71FordGator]

Great video. I purchased the regulator almost 2 years ago but was apprehensive about doing it. I re watched your video this morning and tackled it. It was surprisingly easy. Had it done in 15 minutes. Great Job, Thank You

[@jamesbeverland1039]

Thank You so much. Due to this video I was able to make the repair on my 2004 Tahoe in less then 1/2 hour.

[@MarvOtis]

The best how to video on KZbin for this job saved me a lot of time and headaches. Thank you!!!

[@dmax06]

I've watched several vids for replacing this part and yours is by far the best! Not only well filmed and well spoken but thoroughly detailed. The only one I saw showing the extra steps of completely removing the handle, plastic and speaker. Then on the installation you showed bending the 2 tabs and spec'd the 80 inch lbs on the regulator bolts. No one else I saw did that. So thank you very much for your efforts! Now where do I order a Diesel Performance Window Regulator??.

[@TRQ]

+DMax ! Thanks for watching. Buy the part in this video on 1AAuto.com: 1aau.to/ia/1AWRG01507

[@useritscarrot]

Were you able to do it?

[@kirkjohnson954]

Perfect vid for my 2003 Suburban. My window holders were wider on the window than yours by about 4 inches each side. Other than that, 100% perfect vid. Thank you so much!!

[@patrickparker228]

Thank you! Just what I needed to see. I'd gotten the door panel off but couldn't figure out how I would get the regulator out because other videos didn't cover what my 2000 Tahoe looked like. Gotta remove the speaker! Very helpful. Thanks again.

[@brentshaffer1891]

Much appreciated, your video was awesome..one less thing on my plate! Thank You

[@MrCooterpooter]

Thank you, not as hard as I thought. Getting the regulator out and in wasn't hard. Not including taking panel off and putting panel back on maybe took 10 minutes and that is checking that it worked.

[@1313CHORIZOMAN]

Amazing explanation. Thank you

[@scootert2585]

You video is the only one I've watched that actually shows what to tighten the bolts to that actually hold the window 80 inch LBS. Would this be the same for the front window regulator also?

[@DeeOne909]

Excellent vidio thank you

[@TheUniversalrights]

I noticed your video the window was up. What if mine is all the way down, can I still do exactly how you did it? Lmk, thanks. Nice detailed video though! Two Thumbs up from me!

Easier than it seems just watch it step by step literally paused it one step at it time.. saved my girls truck lots of money this weekend 👍🏽

[@ozzy6707]

Wait wait if the regulator isn’t working that’s why its being replaced! How do i bring it down???!!!

[@paulm7325]

I'm in the same predicament. Mine doesn't work, won't go down...

[@edgargoncalves470]

Hello thanks for the video, I need to change manual to electric, for a chevy silverado 2013 short cab, but I do no know if the internal system is possible to put the electrical original AC delco or generic whit a some litle changes. can you helpme whit this information ??

[@davidtomlinson5333]

Thanks!

[@buddyrebel_Garcia]

Is this the same regulator for the driver passenger rear side as well?

[@davejohnson3860]

Mad respect @6:53! Awesome job! How long was that job? Thanks

[@whowho7969]

I have to do the passenger side front window. Looks like same Process?

[@bengarcia6898]

I need replacement bolts for the window motor and the nuts for the regulator. What size or part number?

[@reganlilley9777]

Thanks for the video, and yes ... make sure to loosen the bolts on the regulator so the window slides in!

[@alarkyt9966]

I struggled a lot because I didn’t loosen up the bolts on the window regulator

[@peterjin9524]

Thanks you, saved me $150 labor.

[@jamesrichardii9075]

What parts besides the one provided can i use to replace it?

[@siddrajput1029]

I followed this video and fixed my rear driver side window. Everything is mirrored but these instructions still apply.

[@14mtaylor]

Can you tell me the correct part number for that regulator? I seem to be seeing several for that year.

[@ozzy6707]

Wait is the regualr is not working and its up how do i bring it down?

[@flaco7025]

What’s the machine u used for taking the bolts out

[@elviraschonlaub8927]

Is there any way to just replace the motor not the whole thing?

[@SouthBayTri74]

I’m curious if anyone else has issues with the roll up speed on their new one. I just replaced this on my 2005 Tahoe and the motor rolls up noticeably slower than any of the OEM windows. Does anyone else have this issue? I also noticed that the new motor doesn’t have a hole for the wire holding tab like the original.

[@AngelHernandez-sj4nk]

Thanks... Subscribed, after finding out that mechanics charge around $150-260 just to change out 2 window regulators.😅😋😎

[@adriananimationsskits136]

150 sounds fair , but you probably want to pay 30 bucks and expect life time warranty

[@sethflood1545]

Not the same as a 03 suburban… if you know how to do that then please post a video having issues with mine… mine has 2 brackets with regulator connected on one of the brackets. Removed it a year ago now i forgot how to put back in 😅

[@marknicolich5789]

yeah if im replacing a part its because it does not work so showing the repair by moving the bracket with the switch is pointless but great demonstration vid for how to repair a part if it still works.

[@bobganoosh5520]

My regulator/assembly will not move at all. It is stuck 3/4 of the way up. Is it safe to assume the motor is bad?

[@jongiseasy3181]

What if the window is down ? Is it harder to take it off

[@ronaldcrenfro4637]

The Dealer wanted $600 to replace mine..got it on Ebay, did it myself for $70

[@DeaganZ3488]

What if your window is stuck in the down position. Old motor will not move

[@joseg1530]

Is it necessary to put back the vapor barrier back? Cuz mine got really torn

[@TRQ]

+Jose G Thanks for watching! Yes you will have to pull back the vapor barrier in order to replace the window regulator.

[@michaels9657]

You can get one at salvage yard for under 10 bucks

[@jackconway596]

The regulator doesn't work. What if i can't run the regulator down as shown? Can I still get the regulator out?

[@GuitarP0RN]

Yes, but you'll have to use a wrench to loosen the nuts holding the glass, since you can't access the nuts with a ratchet & socket. It might be a little bit of a contortionist job but you gotta do what you gotta do.... OR you can drill a couple holes to access the nuts

[@jackconway596]

@@GuitarP0RN Before I went with this option I tapped on the regulator with a screwdriver handle while holding down the switch. It jolted it enough to get the window to come down so I could get to the window nuts. Also, the video shows the tech using the switch with it still in the door panel. But it's much easier to pry it out of the panel and then connect it.

[@Showstoppinkind]

Bought the part, did it myself (perfectly I might add) and my window still won't move. What else could be the problem?

[@TRQ]

+Osie Carter Thanks for watching! There could be multiple things causing your issue, but we are not able to diagnose it for you. If you are unsure we recommend having a reputable shop take a look!

[@sp7058]

Can I pay you to fix 3 of my windows?

[@freeman573]

Before I put it all back together, I would test it with the window installed first...

[@EricFromPahmHahbah]

Slightly different than a 2000 GMC Yukon XL, but close enough.

[@MrMarc315]

You just saved me from going to a mechanic

[@TRQ]

+MrMarc315 Thank you! We love empowering our customers and showing how to perform DIY auto repairs with our high-quality auto parts. 1aau.to/m/Shop-TRQ

[@gordonfarrelly1511]

my window won`t roll up

[@gdpeck71]

good instruction but the sound of the ratchet is horrible.

[@victorreyes2135]

I did this to my truck . Now my power locks to that door don't work . Wtf happen??

[@Teddybites]

Mine did the same the locking mechanism gave out so you may try buying one of those

[@williamcapps3508]

How in the hell am I going to roll the window down when the motor don't work?????

[@TRQ]

+William Capps Thanks for watching! You can sometimes open up the motor and manually crank it down. If the window is truly stuck then you can always cut the cable to free up the window. You will need the new replacement part on hand to replace it!

[@momdozen]

Why are you replacing a regulator that is obviously in working order? You are running the window up and down to suit your needs for bolt removal. If the regulator is not working, you can't do that. Some of these how-to videos are really, really stupid.

[@dmax06]

Could be like my window situation? Keeps dropping half way down and then won't roll all the way back up. I need to open up the door for access to repair or replace and now I know how. I sure appreciate his efforts!

[@marcushuddleston2710]

Thanks!
