Hey, I'm Brian, I'm here to give you guys a little tutorial on some window regulators. The specific design is the scissor design. We actually get a lot of calls on these products here and the common question is: The part I received seems different than the part in my vehicle.
The scissor design actually has a flip design and we're actually going to show you how to fix this here. The most common thing that you want to do, or the first step you want to do is lay the parts out side by side. Try not to match them up in the car because this can get confusing. Take it out, lay them side by side, and what you actually see here is a same exact part for the same model vehicle in the same door. As the appearance shows here, they seem to be mirrored.
If you look down at the bottom here, we have the power window motor. This is the piece that is actually powered to lift and lower your glass. The next section down here is . you actually have your gear drive. Here's your mounting plates on both. As you can see, it's identical. You have your tension spring here. If you notice on the upper section here, it's kind of reversed. You're going to think normally, I get the wrong side door. You're going to give us a call and you want to express that to one of our customer service reps. I'm going to show you how to fix this.
Basically, pick this up by the base and you want to scissor or flip. This is how you're going to fix the issue. It's going to actually match the component as shown there. You can now see that both of these components here are the same part and you're ready for installation.

Hi, I'm Mike from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video, we're going to show you how to remove and replace a manual window regulator in this 1996 Ford F-150. It's pretty much the same for any 1980 to 1996 F-150, 250 or 350. We do this on the driver's front door, but it's the same procedure for the passenger's front door. The tools you'll need include a new regulator from 1AAuto.com, a T20 Torx driver, a Phillips screwdriver, a door panel clip tool or a putty knife will work, a hammer and punch, a drill with a 5/16 or 3/8 drill bit, some tape, and three M6. M6 is the size and they're 1.5 cm long bolts with nuts.
You want to remove the window crank handle. On these Fords, sometimes you can see the screw here. On this particular one, you pull this part of it out and then move it off to the side. This one needs a T20 Torx driver to remove the mounting screw. Pull the handle off. Now, you'll want to remove two Phillips screws. There's one right up in here and one right in the door pull there. Just fast-forward here as I use a Phillips screwdriver to remove those two screws.
Once you have those out, you'll want to take a door panel clip tool and put it right in behind here. There's usually a clip right behind this reflector, so slide it up a little bit further. Then, from here, continue around and release all the clips. If you don't have one of those door panel clip tools, you can actually use a household putty knife it'll work as well. I'm going to fast-forward through this part.
I'm using the same T20 Torx driver that I used to remove the screw for the window crank handle to remove the speaker with four screws, and remember to obviously unplug the speaker and then carefully pull your water shield down to expose the inside of the door. Now, there are three rivets that hold the window regulator in one here and then two down here. What you'll want to do with these rivets is take a punch, and you're going to want to punch the center of the rivet right out. Put it right in the center of that rivet and punch it out. Now, you can see there's the rivet and there's no center. I'll do that for my other two down here.
Now, we're going to use a 5/16 inch drill bit, and we're going to just drill out the middle of these rivets. They're soft aluminum, so you don't have to press hard on them, just run your drill and some light pressure. If need be, just take your punch and punch the rest of the rivet right off. Probably should have used a little bit bigger of a bit, probably a 3/8 bit would have been better. I'm just going to fast-forward here as I drill out my lower two rivets. Once you get those out, hold up right here, this is what's supporting your window.
Then you can bring this down and this slides out of the track and your window. Hold the window up, slide your regulator out, and push your window back up. Then I use some painter's tape just to hold the window up. Now, you can reach down in and take it out.You have to finagle these around and then pull them out. Here's the new regulator from 1A Auto, and we're going to use nuts and bolts.
These are basically M6 metric bolts with 10mm heads and 10mm nuts. I'm just going to feed the regulator down and in. It's just a matter of getting it in. It's a tight spot here. Let's see. I'm just putting this on, and roll it up or just roll the regulator, it just changes the angle a little bit. Work the regulator around and get it right in the door. Now, with the regulator in here, basically just flip it up and get a hold of the arm. Then just take the arm and slide it into the end of the window.
Now, I'm just going to bring the regulator in place over here and then what we'll do is just remove the tape from the window, carefully bring the window down, and that allows my regulator to rotate into place. Put the bolt through this hole up here and one through there. I just want the regulator to go down. Put a nut on this side and slide it down further. I can see my holes are starting to line up down here. I'm going to take this, and I'm going to crank the window up to give me the most room. Take another bolt and put right through there. I see it's coming through. Put a nut on it. I'm going to fast-forward here as I take the third bolt, line it up, get it in that hole, and thread the nut, and then I'll use a 10mm wrench as well as a 10mm socket and ratchet, and I'll tighten those bolts up to hold the regulator in place, and then I'll do a little test to make sure everything's working properly.
Just do a quick little trial run. It's working it well. Then I'll fast-forward here as you put the water shield back up in place, reconnect your speaker and reattach it to the door with the four screws. Now, take your door handle, pull your door handle out, get the panel on there, push the front in here, hold the back up and on, make sure you get the door lock knob through, lift up and go back, push it towards the window, slide it down and on. Then your clips should be pretty much lined up, you've got to peek in the back here. Then put your two screws back in. Now a little washer for your handle goes back on. Put the crank back on with a T20 Torx driver. Speed it up here as I put that screw in and then tighten it up snug you don't want to make it too tight. Then you're all set.
