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.
This video is part two of a two part series for installing a regulator in this 2000 Lincoln Town Car. We sell this regulator with and without the motor included. This video is part two of replacing the window regulator without replacing the motor. Here's a quick look at the tools you'll need to accomplish this. To see the first part of this video, just search for the same video title but part one in the title rather than part two.
On the window, you'll have these rivets. Use a pair of needle nose pliers and carefully just pop them out. So, to reinstall a regulator without a motor, you can see I just kept my original one because it's in good shape. I'm just showing you how to do it in this video. You want to put it in, get it in behind that rod, then up, and look through these holes you can look up above here. Get that into place. Now, to bolt the bottom, I have two M6 and they're 2cm long; they're the standard 1.0 pitch. I'm going to use those on the bottom here. I'm going to feed them, let's see.
Now, I'll also start my fasteners up here at the top. We will fast-forward here, but you can see how I put the nut into the socket with the extension, feed it in, and start it onto the stud of the window regulator.
Then I'm going to take my window and get the nose down in as we straighten it. Feed the nose of the glass down in with the rear in the channel, and then, eventually, you pull the nose into the front channel and get it all set in the window channel. Then bring it up. Make sure you pull it into place. Push it down a little further, pull the front into the channel, then rotate it up. You let the glass down.
Then I've got another set of M6. These are 2mm long. Put them through. Now, I use my 10mm socket here. There's no motor on the regulator still, so I can push it down a little bit and that allows me to get my fastener on there. These ones I will tighten up. Notice none of the other ones I've tightened up so far. Now, I do have a special type of serrated nut that once you tighten it up, it keeps it from loosening. Pull your gear back like that. Put the motor in. Push it into the transmission. Then we'll start this bolt up here.
Now, you want to look right through this hole, and bring that screw into place. Now, you can see I've got it in place there, and I've got the holes pretty well lined up there so I can put the two other screws in. Now pull your lead through and reconnect. Okay, those of you with a keen eye will notice that in this shot the window regulator is now a steel color. That is because I just borrowed this footage from the video where I actually replaced the entire window regulator and motor assembly together. But all the steps are the same for doing this procedure.
Now, with the key on, run your window up and down a little bit a couple times. Probably with it right about there. Tighten up this upper one and tighten up this one. Then re-tighten my lower ones. That's it.
Now, reinstall this piece of rubber. So here, I'm just going to speed up putting the door panel back on just to keep the video at somewhat of a manageable length. If you wanted to see this part of the process in regular speed, just check out our other videos for the Lincoln Town Car door panel removal and replacement.

This video is going to be part one of a two part series, replacing a window regulator in this 2000 Lincoln Town car, same as any '98 to '02. We offer the window regulator with motor and without motor, this video covers replacing your window regulator without the motor. The tools you'll need are Philip's and flat blade screwdrivers, T30 Torx driver, a hammer with a punch and a chisel, a drill with a 5/16 drill bit, 10mm socket with ratchet and extension and there's a little star there because your vehicle may vary, it may be 10 or 11mm and needle nose pliers. Door panel removal, it's fairly simple. On this vehicle, this door panel has been taken apart a bunch of times so some of the fasteners may be different for you as well as the ... for example, it has a screw here, which I believe most cars probably don't and the reason it has a screw here I believe is because so many of the pins in behind that hold it are broken. Where you want to start is remove your door lock knob just by unscrewing it and then in under here should be two, on this vehicle they're Philip's screws, and you kind of just put your screwdriver up under there. Now, there's another Philip's screw up in here. Then this pulls out. Then right in here you'll see there's another Philip's screw that goes into the door panel. As you can tell I've been fast forwarding when I just get to the monotonous stuff, so you remove that screw and then there's another screw next to the rear side of the pole. Then at the bottom, there's two more Philip's screws, there's a little indent in carpet, just put your screwdriver in there, twist a little bit and you'll get to the screw.
This car has a little Torx screw here, I'm not sure if it's supposed to be there or not. I'll remove it, this may not be on all cars. Then there is another screw here but this is broken on my car so I know there's no screw in there and then what there is a series of clips so you want to work your hand underneath here and there's one clip right here and you want to get your hand as close to those... you can slide your hand underneath and you slide it over and you'll feel it getting tighter and tighter. Then you give a good pull and get that clip out. Then come up here on the top and give that a good pull on that clip there and then on these vehicles there's more clips, there's clips in the middle and more on the edge but like I said this vehicle has been apart a few times. Before you pull the door panel off, you want to pull your window switch up in the front and then pull it out and then there's a series of harnesses that just have a little tabs, you press the tabs, pull the harness down. Gray one tab, pull it down, a tab here on the black one, and then a tab here for the brown one. Now, pull the panel away and there's a few more harness connections back here. A couple of small harnesses with a black and white connector, press a little button here, pull that apart. There's a blue connector here that has a tab on it that you pull the wires of the blue connector, pull the tab out. It's hard to see.
There's a gray connector, again a big tab, pull it apart. Oops, it looks like the screw isn't quite all the way out. Your door panel is off. Okay, so you can see here I'm holding back the water shield, you may have noticed on the other clip that on this car somebody has cut the water shield, there should be a shield covering that whole large open area. You want to pull your water shield back carefully because you do want to save it because it does protect your door panel from getting aged too quickly by water and dirt. To remove your power window motor, if your lead is right here, press on this tab, pull the lead up and out and then there's three T30 Torx screws right here and you remove the bottom two and you loosen the top one. Once you loosen that top one, reach in behind and you slide the whole motor and cable assembly out. Pull it all the way to here and I'll actually finish removing this. Then the motor comes off. Now you can slide your window down and you can access this rivet here and this one through here. Your rivets that hold your regulator to the window is right there and then I can see one right through there. Now, I'm going to take a drill with a 5/16 bit and going to slowly drill into these rivets and I don't want to go to fast because I don't want them to spin. That one comes off. They are aluminum so they do come off fairly easy. Now that one's off.
Now I can take my window, the window now separates from the regulator. You'll want to pull this weather strip right up and off and you're going to want to remove the window and what you need to do that is slide the front down a ways and then push it out towards the outside of the car and then you just pull the window diagonally out. Go back to the front and your rivets will probably get stuck on the little wiring harnesses in here a little bit. Move those to the back and the window comes out. Now the regulator is held at the bottom by two rivets here, a nice punch, pointed end and a good size hammer, put it right in the middle of the rivet and you can see I knocked the middle of rivet right through. Again with the drill, nice and easy. You can see my rivet started to spin a little bit so get a Cole chisel and there not much left to these rivets so ... knock one off and knock the other one off. Now the regulator is still held in here by two 11mm nuts so I've got a socket, ratchet and a extension. I'm just going to fast forward this and actually on this vehicle looks like it was taken apart before, one nut was 11mm and one was 10mm so yours could either have 10 or 11mm nuts. Now bring the regulator down and it comes right out. Okay, so we're going to end right here, if you want to see the re-installation just search for the same video just with part two in title rather than part one.

In this video, we're going to show you how to replace the window regulator and motor in this 2000 Lincoln Town Car, same as any '98-'02. We sell these regulators with motor and without motor; this video shows you how to replace them when you're replacing both the regulator and the motor at the same time. Tools you'll need are Phillips and flat blade screwdrivers; T30 Torx driver, hammer, punch and chisel; a drill with a 5/16 drill bit; 10mm socket and ratchet with extension which could vary and some needle nose pliers.
Door panel removal: it's fairly simple. On this vehicle this door panel's been taken apart a bunch of times so some of the fasteners may be different for you. For example, it has a screw here, which I believe most cars probably don't. The reason it has a screw here I believe is because so many of the pins in behind to hold it are broken. The way you'll want to start is to remove your door lock knob just by unscrewing it then in under here should be two . on this vehicle, they're Phillips screws . and you just kind of put your screwdriver up under there. Now there's another Phillips screw up in here. This pulls out and then right in here, you'll see there's another Phillips screw. It goes into the door panel. As you can tell I've been fast forwarding when I get to the monotonous stuff so you remove that screw and then there's another screw next to the rear side of the pull. Then at the bottom there are two more Phillips screws. It's kind of a little indent in the carpet, just put your screwdriver in there, twist it a little bit and you'll get the screw. This car has a little Torx screw here, I'm not sure if this is supposed to be there or not. I'll remove it. This may not be on all cars. Then there is another screw here but this is broken on my car so I know there's no screw in there. Then, what there is, is there's a series of clips, so you want to work your hand underneath here and there's one clip right here and you get your hand as close to those . you can slide your hand underneath and you slide it over and you feel it getting tighter and tighter and then you give a good pull and get that clip out and then come up here on the top and give it a good pull on the clip there and then on these vehicles there's more clips, there's clips in the middle and more on the edge but like I said, this vehicle's been apart a few times.
Actually before you pull the door panel off you want to pull your window switch up in the front and then pull it out and then there's a series of harnesses that just have little tabs, you press the tab, pull the harness down, this gray one, tab, pull it down, tab here on the black one and then tab here for the brown one. Pull the panel away and there's a few more harness connections back here, a couple of small harnesses with a black and white connector. Press the little button here, and pull that apart. The blue connector here that has a tab on it that you pull the wires in the blue connector, and pull the tab out. It's hard to see. There's a gray connector here, again, big tab, pull that apart. Looks like this screw's not quite all the way out.
Your door panel is off. You can see here, I'm holding back the water shield, you may have noticed on the other clip that on this car somebody has just cut the water shield, there should be a shield covering that whole large open area, you want to pull your water shield back carefully because you do want to save it because it does protect your door panel from getting aged too quickly by water and dirt.
To remove your power window motor your lead is right here, press on this tab, pull the lead up and out and there's three T30 Torx screws right here and you remove the bottom two and you loosen the top one. Once you loosen that top one, reach in behind and you slide the whole motor and cable assembly out and you pull it all the way out to here. Next I'll finish removing this. The motor comes off.
Now you can slide your window down and you can access this rivet here and this one through here so your rivets that hold the regulator to the window is right there and then I can see one right through there. Now I'm going to take a drill with a 5/16th bit and I'm going to slowly drill into these rivets; I don't want to go too fast because I don't want them to spin. That one comes off, and they're aluminum so they do come off fairly easy. That one's off. Now I can take my window, the window now separates from the regulator. You'll want to pull this piece of weatherstrip right up and off. You're going to want to remove the window and what you do to do that is slide the front down a ways and then push it out towards the outside of the car and then you pull the window diagonally out and back to front and then your rivets will probably get stuck on the little wiring harnesses in here a little bit and it goes to the back and the window comes out.
On the window you'll have these rivets. With a pair of needle nose pliers, carefully just pop them out. The regulator is held at the bottom by two rivets here. With a nice punch, pointed end and a good size hammer, put it right into the middle of the rivet and you can see I knocked the middle of the rivet right through and again with the drill nice and easy. My rivet's starting to spin a little bit so the cold chisel and there's not much left to these rivets so knocked one off, and knocked the other one off. Now the regulator's still held in here by two 11mm nuts so I've got a socket, ratchet and extension. Just use a little fast forward here as I remove those two nuts and one of them ended up actually being a 10mm nut so your, the sizes could vary on your vehicle as well, it appears this car's been apart before. Now bring those there, comes right out and now just like the lower rivets you drill. I'm just going to use my drill and I'm going to drill out the three rivets that hold the bracket that hold the window motor and those of you that are keen, you'll see that the regulator is actually back in the door that's just because you can do this either way, you can drill the rivets off for the motor first and take the whole assembly out, or you can take the regulator all apart and then drill the rivets and pull the bracket out. You see I drill it and now I will use the chisel and knock the rivets off and then I can take that bracket out or as I said, if you want to remove the window motor and regulator at the same time you can do it that way. The one with the black rail is my original, new one from 1A Auto. You can see the one from 1A Auto is going to go in exactly the same so the thing is it's been beefed up; it's a little larger diameter wheel up here; that allows it to spin a little slower and has less wear and it's just going to go in there it's going to bolt in or you're going to have to bolt it in and it's going to fit the same, has the same pigtail so it plugs in all the same. After that beautiful comparison we're going to stop here and if you want to see the second part of this video which is installing the new regulator with motor, please check out the video with the same title, just has part two in it.
