I did it! 62 year old female with just a tad of mechanical knowledge. The video was awesome!

[@sadame1414]

Was your cable detached from its original position?? Or was the cable completely broken?

[@frbird51]

After watching this video I just ordered a replacement window regulator for my '09 2500HD from this company. I've watched several videos from 1A Auto for other repairs on my vehicles but this is the first time I've ordered from them. I figured I should throw some business their way for helping me out several times in the past with their excellent youtube tutorials. The website is great by the way; very intuitive and I was quickly able to find the parts that I needed. While I was there I also ordered a rear 3rd brake / cargo light to replace the original one that has been leaking for a while.

Once again, your videos have helped me save money by doing my own repairs. Thank you, and your crew, for your straight-forward instructions without all the excessive gibber-gabber.

[@paulbrodzik6181]

Thank you very much for this video! You showed me that I could perform this work, I was able to do it with the tools I already had, in my limited work space. You saved me hundreds of dollars by comparison to what a shop or service center would have charged me!

Only difference on my 08 was the top of the door panel had to clip over a rail on the window seal.Then the bottom clips were installed. Bought the part from you guys . Perfect fit. Thanks for taking the time to do a video.

[@edwardohanian3057]

Thanks. Bought the part from 1a auto. Fixed like a champ because of this video.

[@Amanda_Bulldog_Mom]

Thanks for the video!! Just changed this out in my ‘07… I was quoted $300-$600 and it took me less than 30 min.

[@stuarthaveasnickers165]

Thanks for the video, I ordered the window regulator from A1, just finished installing the new one, fit is great and works great.

[@jeremiahfisher6994]

It's a lil less scary if u gotta friend to hold the glass lol

[@JuanMartinez-cv9fw]

Although it was a great video, I found out that leaving the window taped up is easier than sliding it down and risking a scratch. It was risky, but letting the part that holds it slide down and installing the new one and bringing it up with the driver door was a lot quicker.. great video though!

[@jeremiahfisher6994]

Me too!! I had to have the glass down to get the reg in they should probably tell us dumb ass ppl that the connections for the glass need to be loosen on new reg lol

[@thorsky2754]

I was confused in why they lowered the glass.

[@lanejohnson8552]

Yes, I didn't understand why they didn't just leave the window taped up.

[@sadame1414]

I'm still a little confused. I totally understand the mechanism removal. But , is it necessary to replace the mechanism because the wire cable became detached or can I reattach the wire cable ?

[@mayken6661]

Yes, I wondered why let it slide down.

[@Nikkipikki11]

I might be a little late, but a question about the water seal. Does it just go back on, or do I need to do anything to it to "reapply" the seal?

[@prejeanfarm4034]

This is a great video. I am not handy with car repair but the instructions are spot on. Worked perfectly.

[@MegaMoose73]

Thanks for the video I just downloaded your app and bought the part I need to fix my pick-up. You guys have great videos and prices.👍

[@yammyboyz]

[@jamesvaughan1992]

Worked just like the video, including putting all the door parts back together. Great Help. Thanks.

[@1AAuto]

Thanks 1A auto! Your vids always help me out!

[@stevestoecker2371]

I've watched many of your videos. By far, your step by step process is the best I've seen. You guys are the best, I wish there was a way to sort your videos by entering the model of my truck.

[@dannymacdonald1807]

When in doubt KZbin it. Informative and simple tutorial. Thanks

[@crs12055]

Great video. Bought the part from you, 1Aauto, and your video walked me through each step. However, the applicable vehicles should be from 2008-2013 (not 2008-2012). Model change was in 2014. Only difference in my 2013 was the power window switch had a white retaining clip that took a little time to figure out. Otherwise, your video was right on the money. Thanks!

[@jeremiahfisher6994]

Just changed mine thanks for the video

[@carlboeshore9687]

Perfect tutorial, I was able to confirm what broke and repair it easily.

[@donschoonover7366]

You guys are great! Very informative videos.

[@jennydrumm7223]

Thanks for this an awesome video! Very clear and easy to understand and follow! I got my regulator changed and the window actually WORKS! It's so cool! My only problem is that I can NOT, no matter what I do, seem to get the stupid door panel back on! It goes partly together okay (after some wrestling) except for the side where the door handle is. It just refuses to push back to where I can put in the bolts. (I honestly spent over an hour on it this evening!) I keep wanting to think its the door handle cable, because it LOOKS like it might be getting pinched, but I can't find anything else to do with it that won't twist it up.

[@sadame1414]

Maybe it's your guide pins on the panel. They can get bent easily.

[@RedWasp12]

Thanks this helped me out a bunch!!!!

[@jesusmeraz8795]

Thx great video was able to replace mine following these steps. 👍🏽

Dang! Out of stock. Thanks for the video, though. I will make sure to place my next order with you guys.

[@1AAuto]

+yetijoeyetijoe Thank you for your feedback!

[@FINFLEX88]

any videos out there showing how to install a new back window? i cant find any online.

[@1AAuto]

+FINFLEX88 Great question! Check out our library for more videos here: 1aau.to/m/video-library-c

[@TheEpenrose]

I have followed the video three or four times and for some reason my window will not roll up without jumping. It goes up with help and sometimes will go up all of the way. I have to pull it up while pushing the button. Is there a certain pattern for the bolts when reinstalling?

[@biggsteve1975]

Very helpful. Thanks.

[@1AAuto]

+biggsteve1975 No problem. Glad to hear it helped you out. 1aauto.com 866-403-3393

[@joeymorgan3416]

1A Auto Parts can you get window cranks 4 HD trucks that do not have window cranks on the back doors to roll the windows up and down

[@turnerway14]

If anybody was wondering about the crew cab... it’s completely different. They have another video for the Suburban/Denali of the same generation!

[@1AAuto]

+turnerway14 Thanks for the tip!

[@kingg2275]

Got everything up until the part where the window actually catches back on track smh... thank you for the video

[@OriginalSkeet]

The part linked in this video says it's for the drivers side. Are driver and passenger side the same part?

[@jeremiahlybolt3305]

This video rocks; thank you!

[@1AAuto]

+Jeremiah Lybolt Thanks for checking us out. Shop here for high quality auto parts: 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c

[@vincepetrillo1641]

If the window is stuck in the down position, is there any major install differences than the video above?

[@1AAuto]

+Vince Petrillo The only major difference would be clearance. If you are unable to remove the regulator with the window down you may have to cut the regulator cable. You will want to make sure you have the new part in hand if you have to resort to that!

2012 GMC Sierra 1500 Extended Cab Rear Passenger window not working, changed old switch with new switch will not work with new switch from rear position. Works fine from the master control from front driver side any ideas what the problem could be ?

[@jacobgarcia7103]

Big help. Thanks.

[@bigmikesnydet000666]

Do they make that a manual option? I have a 2009 extended cab and I know the window goes down. And I would like to add the option because there's no way to roll it down right now. It's the work truck Edition. But I do know the track is in there? I realize I'll have to cut a hole for the window crank. Thanks for any help I'm just trying to get that window down.

[@sadame1414]

I'm just trying to get mine closed . 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@1AAuto]

+Hassan Maghrabi Yes, this will be a mirror image for the other side though.

[@JJSoileau]

What do I do if the panel clips won't release?

[@michaelcotton6651]

Thanks!! 💯💯🔧

[@davidtravis1367]

My window went down and never came back up and wount come up and would it be the regulator?

[@chadbroussard84]

I can’t lower my front passenger window but can raise it and I can lower my rear passenger window but can’t raise it from my driver side switch. What could be the issue?

[@1AAuto]

+Chad Broussard double check all your connections. Trace all wires and make sure they are all intact.

[@Maverick_Armwrestling]

💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

[@Vancer912]

Why did you have to lower the window when you took the regulator out?

[@1AAuto]

You have to do this so that you can remove the regulator from the window.

[@jonathonvince561]

Mine only goes down not up. Assuming need a regulator

[@kgalbreaith]

My issue is that the window won’t stay up, why dis y’all bring it down if it would stay up anyway?
