That was incredible. I'm replacing the front driver's side regulator in my 92 190E 2.6 next weekend and I just watched this video 3 times. Good stuff. Thank you so much for taking the time to document this procedure in detail.

[@FlashDriveFilms]

Thank you! That is exactly why I make these videos, that they are going to be helpful to keep these cars on the road and enjoyed!

[@190E_2.6]

@hyperlicht I have a 1988 2.6 that needs the driver side window regulator replaced too. I hope yours went well.

Absolute amazing video, and many great tips. I never could figure out how the fuse panel top went in, Id struggle with it for 5 minutes trying to get it off and on 😂. Very useful to show how to get that window motor out, my new 190e has the drivers side window not working, so I’ll have to figure out the problem, and maybe replace the motor as well. Also, love the editing, it sorta reminds me of ThisOldTony, but with cars and a twist, as well as a really calm voice. Great video!

Glad you liked it! I never understood why they put the fuse box in such a hard place to open the lid. For some reason, power windows are a real issue on the early W201 cars. They didn't age as well as the other parts of the car.

FlashDriveFilms yeah out of the 3 190’s I own, none of the rear windows work. I guess it’s hard to complain with a 30+ year old car that has very few issues, I’d take a few window regulator over any drivetrain issues any day.

[@190E_2.6]

Absolutely awesome! Let’s see if I can do this as easily 😃

[@FlashDriveFilms]

Thanks! Key thing is to remember to lift the interior panel so as to not snap off the attachment tabs.

[@190E_2.6]

I was extremely lucky. It was just a 16A fuse 😁.

Always a good day when there is dot next to Flash Drive Films in my list of subscribed sites.. I am currently coming to the very strong conclusion that perhaps it's not a good idea to ask for design assistance on a diesel engine from a company based in a country on which you have previously deployed strategic nuclear weapons.

[@FlashDriveFilms]

I'm guessing either Isuzu or Nissan.

[@giantgeoff]

@@FlashDriveFilms Well Isuzu had proved their metal (sic.) with all their Forward Control Box truck chassis. So what could go wrong?.....

Excelente 👍👍👍👍👍

Brilliant.!. Superb tutorial, Grazie Sir.!.

[@FlashDriveFilms]

Thanks! Those window motors seem to be a point of failure in the earlier cars.

[@balnsingh4118]

@@FlashDriveFilms yep,agree. Keep up the tutorials, great viewing.!.
