Removing door panel from a 2004 toyota highlander

The driver side rear window has come off the track. I was able to hold the window up and roll the track up to meet it and hold the window in the up possition but when you roll is down it comes back off. I am good with my hands and working on cars however most of my exp is with older model chevys etc... I have removed many door panels and put a lot of windows back on track over the years but when I looked at the door panel I only saw one place (in the handle unit) that has a little cover plate and screw. what else is holding the panel in place? How do I remove it without damage to the window or panel?

SOURCE: Need to remove door panel to repair window that is off track

There is a spring clip that holds your window crank on. Your best bet is to get a window crank remover. You can get one at most automotive parts stores. They're only a couple of bucks. You shove it in behind the crank, and then turn the crank, and it'll pop the clip off. When you re-install it, put the clip on the handle, line it up where you want it to be when the window is closed, and give it a bang with your hand. It should pop back on.
The arm rest will most likely be held with a couple of large philip's head screws. They are usually on the bottom side of the arm rest, sometimes the top, sometimes hidden by nylon plugs. Some vehicles only have one screw, and then you slide the arm rest forward to remove it.
I'm sure you'll figure it out once you start looking. Good luck!

The rear door on my 2010 highlander says it's open and getting nuisance alarms. I know the sensor is in the locking mechanism, however that part is $400. Where is the door ajar chime so I can remove it?
Here is what another Highlander owner said: "2010 Highlander 4WD: System check panel I indicating the rear door is open, when it's not. Been to dealer 3 times. Car has 6000 miles on it. The rear door open indicator effects door locking ability with key fob as well as continual chime indicating rear door is open in conjunction with turning dome light off and on. Dealer thought it was rear door strike plate. Adjusted accordingly. This was not the problem. 3rd visit to dealer still trying to pinpoint why this is happening so far no luck. Electrical bad door sensor faulty electrical door switch this problem is very annoying and now times consuming 3 visits to the dealer and still no solution. Rear door open indicator initially made to stop by rolling down driver side window at highway speed. Indicator also made to go off when road turns to the left only. <- " moisture causing short in rear door electrical switch" maybe.

something like this. You can remove it.

Remove Inner door panel, usually, the door handle has a screw, behind the lever, on the inside, and may be covered by a plastic cover, take the screw out, and move the handle forward, then take, the side on clip, off, the rod.
remove, any inside door handles, screw to door, and then starting from the bottom, pull the panel towards you, unsnapping, the plastic clipps, holding them on the door.
Roll window down, till you can see the 2 nuts, holding the bottom of the window.

My 2002 Toyota camry drivers side window is off track when it's rolled up. Water leaks in and when your driving there is wind noise
You may have to review notes on how to remove the drivers side panel and replace one of the broken screws that hold the glass in place on the bottom rail. I believe the cause my be that and if not it may be a sticky guide rail. Try rubbing some furniture polish on the edge of the glass that sticks (usually to opposite side of the one that does not match the door). This may help to get the glass sliding smoothly again.

How fix rear window off track on 2004 toyota highlander
The door pull has 2 screws inside.
the manual window crank has a screw in the center of the pivot.
the power window style has a few screws at the control switch assembly.
the door handle has 2 screws(10 mm) deep inside.
The rest of the panel comes off by gently prying at the edges of the panel with a putty knife. There are plastic"poppers" that hold the panel to the door.
Easily broken.
Use a flashlight to see where they are. Be careful.

How do you put rear window back on track for 2005 Highlander?
On the inside trim, you can remove screws that are by the door handle, arm rest, under door and side of door and then gently pull back on the panel as there will also be retaining clips attached and you don't want to break them. You'll need to lift the door panel upwards in order to get it off the window ledge. Then you'll need to manipulate the panel and disconnect the door handle linkage from the door handle and disconnect the wiring for your controls. Pull back the weather seal and you can access the window and the track. You may need to purchase some new replacement clips that secure the window onto the track.

How to put the rear window back on track of my 2006 highlander
alot of the screws are hidden on these models .. look for a plastic square or a round that can be popped out near the door handles.. also there is probably screws under the door handle .. make sure you have all bolts and or screws out of the door panel before starting to pop the plastic keepers loose.. Start at the bottom of the door with a flat blade screw driver and pry the panel loose all the way around .. working up the sides. once you have gotten it all loose pickup on the door panel to release it from the window lip which holds the top of the door panel.. then lift it off .. you will then find plastic over the holes in the doors and you will have to remove it to see your problem .. thanks jerry

Turn the key on

Press the window switch, lower the window, continue to hold the window switch down for 15 seconds after the window is completely lowered Don't use the auto feature

Pull the window switch up, raise the window, hold the button up for 15 seconds after the window is fully up. don't use the auto feature

Try the auto down feature again, see if it now works.
