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, I'm going to show you how to replace a front window motor and regulator on this 2004 Chevy Colorado. I'm going to show you the driver's side door, but the passenger's side door is basically the same. It's a fairly easy replacement. The tools you'll need include a Phillips screwdriver, a 10mm socket with a ratchet and extension, a Phillips head socket driver, and a pair of pliers.
There are two screws right down in here. With the Philips screwdriver, we're going to remove this, and then pull this up. Let's turn it over. The screw is out. Disconnect this by pressing on old tabs and pulling out. Disconnect our rear switch as well. There's a screw you want to remove right in there. Leave that screw and this is what comes off, and then you can just kind of go right around the door panel, and give a good firm and quick pull. We'll remove this up here by pulling out and then up, and then the door panel comes right off there.
There is a little connector here for your speaker so just press in on the tab. You want to carefully remove your water shield do your best not to rip it or tear it. It's really sticky, but you just work at it and it comes off. Okay, if your window is stuck in the up position, what you want to do is remove these four bolts up here as well as these two nuts here, and that will allow your window regulator to drop down and your window to drop down. You can retry in here. You'll see a brown clip, and there's a tab right on top of it. You just push down and pull that off. I'm going to fast-forward here as I remove the nuts and bolts that hold the regulator in place.
Once you get to a point where the windows start slipping down, just be very careful not to get your hands or fingers pinched anywhere between the window or the regulator, or any of the mechanism or metal. Now, carefully, I'm going to hold the window up, take the regulator out, and then the window comes down. You can see there's a bolt right here. Okay, so as it slides down, remove this bolt here, tilting the window to break it and everything. Tilt the window up and remove this bolt, then you pull the window right and out. Take the regulator out.
This spring provides a counter balance. Just take a pair of pliers and then take it off just to avoid any snapping. For these screws, you're going to want to use a driver bit like this. Once you take them off, you can remove your motor. This motor is in fine shape, I'm just doing this to show you so we can put it back up in place. Put the screws back in. I'll just speed it up here. I start the screws in by hand first, then use my bit and ratchet to tighten them up nice and firm.
Turn it back over, just put it on just with your hand, make sure that balance spring is back on there. What I'm going to do is probably do that, slide it in here, get the bolt there, and the stub comes in right there. I'm going to put a nut on there to hold it in place, and this will push over there. I got the nut in place there. Slide it in. I got one here. We're going to put our two bolts in here and tighten everything up. I'll just speed it up here as I tighten all those fasteners up nice and firm, you don't want to over tighten them, but they need to be nice and snug to hold everything in place.
Now, slide the window down in, carefully. What you want to do is keep it tilted and make sure you get the front in the window channel here. Okay, so you got the front in, make sure the back drops into this channel and get the window in there so it slides up and down well, and bring it right down. Then I'm going to fast-forward here. Slide the window down and then you line up the holes where you attached the window to the regulator. The front hole can be accessed through an oblong whole in the door.
Little hint: if you're putting a regulator that's not already in this position, then you can just hook up the connection. Hook up your power window switch, and move the regulator up or down to where have you need it to line up. I reached back behind here to where they're leading. Turn the key on. My battery's a little bit weak, but, other than that, it works nicely. I'll speed up here again as I put that water shield back on.
Just a little tip: there are two holes in it where you have the two screws that go down to the door pole. Just make sure those are lined up, and, then, just kind of stick everything back in place and get it on there as best you can. Okay, before you put your door panel back on, a couple of my clips didn't come with the panel, so let's pull them off with those pliers. They just slide right in to the panel.
Okay, put your panel back on, and then put in your speaker. Line your panel up here, and then pull your harnesses through. You repeat it back here. Make sure your clips or your pins are going right in to the holes. You kind of pull out on the panel a little bit. Put this in place, push it in. Tighten the Phillips screw nice and firm. Then plug your mirror switch back in. You have two connections for the window switch. We'll just fast-forward here as we put those two Philips screws back in, tighten them up nice and firm, and you're all set.
