Mercury Grand Marquis, Ford Crown Victoria Window Regulator Replacement & Repair 1992-2011 RF

[@ThePoerio]

Wish someone would do a video where the rivets need to be drilled out. I'm not an aerospace engineer so that would be helpful.

[@PowerUpAuto]

using an awl or a punch, punch out the center point of the rivet (the steel mandrel). Then it should be no problem to drill out the aluminum rivet.

[@netzoned]

To whoever: Use a drill bit that is just a little bigger than what can fit in the rivet hole... drill. The rivet _will_ come out.

I have a 98 Crown Vic and the driver window makes noise from the winder when I use the button to move it up and down but the window itself doesn’t move. There is no weird noise just regular window motor noise, is the window glass just off track?

[@taturtoddler6124]

That’s what I’m going through brother😂 but a marquis

The best lubricant to use on electric windows is WD40 Silicone Spray lubricant or any brand of Silicone spray lubricant... because it is more water resistant and lasts longer than regular WD40. I've always used silicone spray lubricant on my vehicles with electric windows. One of my cars is 36 years old and its electric windows still run like new.. I only spray the window channels once per year so the windows go up and down without getting stuck.

[@PowerUpAuto]

correct on all counts, although if you are in a warm state (Florida) every 4 months is ok. You are not using that much, just a very light spray will do it.

Hey _two_ years ago... :-p ...why not dry lube?

I have a 98 grand marquis I want to replace the front driver's side door. I'm wondering what gens/ years will work for a replacement if I can't find a 98. Will a crown vic door work?

[@PowerUpAuto]

might be 92 and up but not positive

[@oozi_og]

How long did this take total for both sides?

[@cheeko_914]

Completely depends on how fast you are and if it's your first time or not

[@johnnybartels727]

For anyone looking in the future I don’t believe in 30 minute jobs so let’s say 45mins for each door

[@richards.mchardy3556]

How do you raise the window up when it is down

[@PowerUpAuto]

You can cut the metal cables or remove the window motor

[@nvvalhalla2097]

Is it me or are you lowkey Christopher Walken lol jp thanks needed help with the old Ford

[@3pointsavior698]

الفورد والميركوري واللينكولن بودي على شاسيه حالها حال السيارات الفورويل لهذا السبب تتحمل وصلبه

[@LITTLE1994]

Is this different from pre-'91 models?

[@PowerUpAuto]

completely. 80-91 use a metal window regulator, not cable. 1992-2013 use the same regulator

[@netzoned]

:-p Pro TIP: Do not be in the habit of holding down the switch too long, at all, when opening and closing any window. That can lead to the wire/s messing up.

I bought a Dorman assembly. It came in a box to fit with absolutely _NO_ packing material! There was a big hole in the box right where the motor was located, and a big hole in one of the corners. The motor tested dead. I returned it. After multiple attempts to get a refund, they gave me only a little over 50% back. I will never buy a Dorman so-called product again... _never!_

[@PowerUpAuto]

Generally, I have had excellent luck with Dorman products. Sorry that did not work out for you

[@drwombat]

WTF I came here to verify that it's actually necessary to drill out rivets and such... Terrible design.

[@dvader3000]

Crying baby

[@netzoned]

@@dvader3000 What was up with you? It's been a year. Are you OK now? :-p

[@netzoned]

To whoever: This is like any other job. You test to figure out what actually has to be done. With this case, if it is just a bad motor, you don't need to worry about rivets because you are not replacing the whole assembly
