Jeep Window Regulator Replacement

[@brianfriedman6001]

Thanks for this great video and for giving me the courage to tackle this job.

[@danhambrick6331]

Nice job Austin.These Cherokees are starting to show their age now,but they are still great vehicles....

[@AleksVHaecky]

Thanks. That worked perfectly. The hardest part was of course the little clips for the door lock; so thanks for not glossing over that "simple" step.

[@jeremymerck6125]

Great video. Used this reference to replace my driver side window regulator earlier today.

[@OutJeeping]

Glad it helped!

[@MrSnowford]

Great video as always. You've really helped me keep my 99 XJ going strong, and saved a TON of money. Thank you and keep them coming.

[@allenlitherland]

Excellent video - I checked out many videos before yours and they all could learn a lesson from you - great job!

[@bonespur2728]

Just got my first XJ two days ago, an 88 with some issues but is solid mechanically (so far). Looking forward to using your videos to get it in good shape!

[@Chrisw678]

Great video! I haven’t had to do mine yet luckily. I found some silicone spray in the tracks helps speed up the window.

[@danteinferno175]

Thanks very helpful! Mine is a 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo but the door looks similar and it's a cable-type regulator so I think it'll work!

[@ljeff46]

Thanks, you did a good job on this video. Better than most.

[@michaelwilliams2232]

Awesome video. Keep them coming in 2020!

Great job. Way to be resourceful. Is this assembly the same for crank windows as well. Wondering if mine just need regressed. They are kinda tight after 25 years. Go figure. Thanks for posting. 👍👍

[@OutJeeping]

The assembly should be very similar except it would be crank driven instead of having a motor.

[@stevenm7566]

Thanks for the help. You do great instruction videos. I really appreciate you taking the time to show us how to do our own work.

@Jeffery Julio Glad I could help :D

[@DrummerboysWashersAndMore]

something about these passenger windows on jeeps. my grandmas liberty had the passenger window regulator go out, as well as both of my uncles Grand Cherokee WJ's had the passenger window regulator fail

[@mrkultra1655]

Thanks

[@CheetoAddict914]

Very informative but one question, what if my window doesn’t roll down? How do I change it

[@OutJeeping]

Check if power is getting to the regulator first. If it is then you may need to get creative on how to get it down by taking the old one apart with it still in the door.

[@smitty4699]

can you roll down the window from the driver side switch if the passenger switch is disconnected?

[@OutJeeping]

I don't think so, power most likely still travels through the switch from the drivers side to roll up/down.

[@danhix1371]

hey austin thanks for the video. I ordered a new regulator. im trying to install it but the cable keeps on jamming up the window as it rolls up. any ideas on how to fix this?

[@OutJeeping]

I would take the regulator out and bench test it, see if it does it out of the vehicle. This way you will be able to easily examine the issue.

[@stevo1977]

Where can I find one of those front windshield shades? Looks pretty sweet on your Cherokee

[@OutJeeping]

I got mine off another Cherokee from Craigslist, but there's some for sale on eBay

[@brandonkelbe]

@@OutJeeping what are they called?

[@thomaspierce9374]

Are those cherokee stickers on the fenders factory? Dumb question, i know, but my jeep has same stickers

[@OutJeeping]

They are aftermarket, I got mine off Ebay.

[@Roger-ob2ft]

What that piece on top of your windshield?

[@OutJeeping]

Roof visor

[@lukedoherty9103]

What lift are you running?

[@OutJeeping]

[@Freemud123]

My drivers side regulator is going out. When I till the window all the way up or down it just starts clicking non stop. Would you be willing to sell me the good one you have?

[@OutJeeping]

I used the tube sheathing off the driver side one to use on my passenger since it was broken. So it's not 100% complete.

[@alexmagers6595]

No clicking for me, just fails to roll UP on the passenger side. Does anyone know what the issue might be/what to rule out in that scenario?

[@OutJeeping]

I would jump the regulator straight from the plug with either a drill battery or 12 volt power source, that will rule out if there is a wiring issue, if the window still does not go up.

[@alexmagers6595]

@@OutJeeping shaved off some insulation on the wire and ground wire, jumped em and it zipped right up. So does that tell us that there IS a wiring issue between switch and regulator? Thanks

[@miguelreyes7073]

So what happens if I can’t get it down

[@OutJeeping]

You might need to cut the cable in the plastic sheath on the old regulator and force the window down by hand.

[@ferdjanklow3566]

Manual window regulator is MUCH different than electric. Totally different system, huge PITA.

[@OutJeeping]

Interesting, thought they were similar but never worked on one before

[@jamesshell8457]

Yeah, I was wondering about that. My driver's side manual crank cable is broken and wondered if there was a source for that?

[@ferdjanklow3566]

@@jamesshell8457 As far as I know, there is no one making new ones. Your only option is to find a good used one. The drivers side is the hardest to find, and the most expensive. Changing it involves drilling out rivets, unbolting the mechanism and working the boomerang shaped channel out of the door. If it is just hard to crank, sometimes you can spray WD40 into the track from the back side to loosen it up.. If it is broken you might want to think about converting that side to electric.
