How to I put the drivers side window back on its

you can put it up manually by taking the door apart to get to the mechanical parts inside the door. (go to youtube it will help you to not destroy points where the clips hold the door innards in..)

My daughter has destroyed a number of automatic window switches, interestingly in the same direction. window goes down, not back up. From constantly rocking the switch towards the back of the vehicle. Replace the switch and I bet everything will be fine... (you'll still have to remove the inside door panels so that video look up with still be needed) I got all my switches from china on ebay and have had excellent results each time... cheap too, honda wanted $125, and I got mine for like $13 delivered...took a week, so you may need to go in and put the window up in the meantime...

R/R the inner door panel, slide the window back on track, reconnect the window transmission to the window, (or reinstall the trans) bolt everything back together (window motor, window trans to door etc.) Make sure the window is in the UP position. use the switch to raise the window & keep it up if all is back together before finally installing the door panel ( make sure the switch & other plugs are plugged in before the door panel is reinstalled.) Lights etc. Good luck

Before you replace anything, inspect the connector pins in both the driver's door switch and the passenger door switch. If you don't find any problem with these connector pins, replace the driver's door control switch.

The only way I know to get the window up is to remove the door panel and run the window motor with jumper wires. However, before you replace the switch (which is not usually the problem) you should check the wires on the driver's door between the point where the wires exit the door and enter the kick panel area. It's common for the wires and insulation to break down over the years, and since the driver's door is opened and closed the most, causing the wires to bend back and forth, it is a common failure. The passenger side window uses the wiring in the driver's side door to operate.

Hello,

To change the window motor driver side, follow the steps below:

1. remove 1 visible bolt left side of arm rest
2. Pop out window switch/door lock/ mirror adjustment control panel with a screwdriver
3. Use panel remover or just pull on interior panel to remove must slide it off of door handle
4. Slide control switch panel down through hole you popped it out of
5. Pull vapor barrier loose bottom right side to expose coiled spring and window motor
6. Tape window in the up position using masking or package tape
7. Mark a straight line across coil spring to make sure you can realign it when reinstall
8. Use tool j-38864 connect it near outer part of coil sprint where it hooks to retainer or in a pinch use pointed vice grips at same location ensuring they are firmly locked on spring ( be very careful, I'm not responsible for any injury if you are not)
9. Force spring clockwise to disengage it from it's retainer point
10. Pull spring slightly outward just enough to clear the retainer point and slowly let it uncoil counterclockwise and let it sit there
11. Disconnect wire connector from right end of window motor
12. Use your hands and push 3 plastic retainer points outward as you lift up on window motor to disengage from retainers careful not to break the plastic retainers comes out pretty easy
13. Install new motor into the plastic retainers, make sure filly seated ( lining up plastic Guides into holes in motor (3 points)
14. Reconnect wire connector to new motor
15. Use J38864 or vice grips to recoil spring, resit it to retainer point as before you have to be very careful in order not to hurt yourself
    
16. Remove tape from window and test up/down switch ( key must be on)
17. Reseal vapor barrier in place as it was prior to starting
18. Slide switch control back up through hole in door panel from where it mounts
19. Slide door over door handle
20. Align retaining clips to holes and push them home with gentle raps of your hand start at the top and work downward on panel
21. Replace both bolts in arm rest
22. Pop window/door lock control panel back in place

That is how to change the window motor of the drivers side of a 2000 pontiac montana.

Take care and good luck

I happens to me either 4 yrs back and it reoccured now, the problems lies in the contact points of the relay in the control panel on the driver`s side as it is getting dust residues as years goes thus, preventing a good contact , you need to move the panel and get access to the panel Printed Circuit board clean it with air and WD40 but it may reoccur in 3-5yrs depending on where you are living but i reccomend to replace the relay switch for the driver`s window . when you disassemble the windows child lock look carefully to the position of micro pin inside the groove before disassemble it,so you can put it back as it was fixed otherwise you won`t be able to enable the child lock

Solution: Chevy Impala Window Fix - If the window goes down but wont go up or stutters on the way up. This is a difficult process but if you have some common knowledge and a little know how it takes about an hour to fix.

I broke mine by leaving the window down and then rolling the window up while it was wet. I did this multiple times so I cannot blame Chevy for the problem. Started stuttering at 80,000 miles

Tools: Star drive screw driver, small flat head screw drivers, dental pick, Q-tips, thin sheet of hard plastic (I used two hotel room key cards) Optional: Soldering equipment

1.) Remove the two screws in the handle of the door to and take out the window control switch. (easy)
2.) Unclip the two wiring harnesses on the back of the panel - I did this with a flat head screw driver and a hotel room key card to wedge under the clips and not break the harnesses. (easy)
3.) Remove the back of the Window Switch box. Once again I used aflat head screw driver and two hotel room key cards to wedge under the clips. (complicated - most time consuming portion for me)
4.) Take off the five window switch tops, pull slighty to one side and then the other. They do come off but it feel like you're going to break the thing. (easy but do it slow)
5.) One the five button tops are removed take off the top of the switch plate. (easy)

Now you're looking at the main switch circuit board. I took a picture to make sure I knew what the circuit board should look like when reassembled.

6.) Remove the large plastic X in the middle of the board. Then use a dental pick to unclip the plastic "horseshoe" attached to the driver side window switch. (easy)
7.) Use a dental pick to carefully unclip the driverside window switch. Visually Note the position of the two "M" shaped pieces. Then take out the two little "M" shaped metal pieces. At this point the bottom right connection of the switch in my car was all blackened by lots of use. I used a Q-Tip to clean all the areas of the switch. Note: there should be some lubricant on the top of the 2 "M" shaped pieces of metal so the switch functions efficiently. (Complicated - go slow)

At this point I took apart the right rear window switch to see the difference in wear. Do not try to exchange another Switch with the driver side window switch. The driver side window switch has clips for the "horseshoe" piece that was detached earlier.

8.) Two choices to Fix the problem:
A:) Put a slight bend in the left "M" shaped piece of the switch so that the connection can be completed when pressing the window button. (Easy)
B:) Put a small dollup of solder to raise the connection area, to complete the connection. (Complicated)

I put a slight bend in the left "M" shaped piece. You can visually see the difference in the two pieces when you press them down. The Left "M" shapped piece in my Switch had to raise up an additional 1/16 of an inch to touch the lower side of the connection. With a slight bend it worked perfectly. I had my solder gun ready but figured if it went out again I could put a dollup of solder in the bottom connection to fix it the next time. No sense in taking the risk of over soldering when a simple bend did the trick.

9.) Reassemble - reattach the top of the driver side window switch ( make sure the blue dot is facing outward), reattach the "horseshoe" shaped clip to the window switch, put the large plastic X back in the middle of the Switch (it can only be put in one way, there is a gap to cover the auto roll down horseshoe piece), put the top plate of the switch back on, put the back of the switch plate back on, then reattach the window buttons to the top of the switch plate, reattach to the two wiring harnesses - Double check the button is working, then put back in the door and screw back in place. (easy)

Troubleshoot: If the button didn't work, redo steps 1-6, then slowly do step 7, then take apart another switch and compare, make sure the "M" shaped pieces are in the appropriate position, if they are add a small dollup of solder to the lower left portion of the window connection and file down the top of the solder for a flat solid connection. Reassemble and try again. If the window still won't go up. Take apart, then exhange components of another switch on the circuit board. You will no longer be able to use the Auto Roll down function but at least the window will work properly. By exchanging the pieces of another switch on the circuit board you may loose the function of that window, but you can always get out of the car and use the switch on that door to roll the window up or down.

Hopefully that works, if not, go to a junk yard and get the pieces out of another switch it can be almost any Chevy of similar year Switch.

1. Take door panel off by prying off with srew driver moldings for outside mirror,around lock,and door handle, then pry up counsel for power locks, windows, and mirror adjustment and disconnect plugs. Remove three screws located behind arm rest handle, inside where counsel was removed, and bottom middle of door panel. Lift panel and pull slighlty towards you. Disconnect courtesy light, and wire to speaker. This may sound like alot but it goes pretty fast. 2. Peel away plastic and loosen window glass clamps (explaination from above, which are accessable when window is in up position). 3. Disconnect wire to motor, and remove 6 bolts holding guide rails and motor. Lift rails slightly to release from little hangers, which come in handy when putting new one in. 4. You should be able to remove entire window regulator at this point. Surprisingly the window stayed in up position when regulator was removed. 5. Before installing new regulator loosen window glass clamps. Install new by first setting guides in place by using the little hangers. Bolt guides and motor, temporarily connect power window switch and carefully raise window regulator until clamps are resting in place under window glass, tighten clamps. Test before putting panel back on.

Pull out window crank and door handle, remove panel, remove plastic Nylon that's between metal and panel, crank the window down enough to see the arm and the part that connects with glass. Make sure the metal part inside the door that comes from an arm and attaches to glass is clean, from broken glass and the gap that attaches to window is clean,bend the new glass to make it fit inside the opening slide down the new glass from the top using opening guides, grave it from both sides standing in between and make land on top center of the part that graves the glass, put automotive glass silicone on center of that part,just at where graves the glass, let dry, put the plastic back the door panel the window crank with the "U" shaped lock washer and the door handle, I hope I was clear
