SOURCE: replace the window motor power window bolts and rivets

Take the panel off the door and take a punch and drive the pins out of the center of the rivets. Then drill out the rivets.( easy with the center pins out) Take out the assembly. Note remove the window before you start anything. 2 X 8MM bolts clamp the bottom of the glass. When down the most of the way the window will lift right out.
Replace the assembly and either rivet back in or use bolts and locking nuts. ( Loc Tight is recommended if you are not sure the nuts will stay locked. replace the window and you are good to go.
This should take about 1 hour from start to finish.

Are you needing advice, links, tricks, or all of the above?
If it's advice you want:
If you are not buying an after market harness and all of the oem wiring is intact replace one wire at a time from the component all the way back to the fuse box. Its tedious but, it's a sure fire way to get it right the first time.

Secondly, I'd by a haynes manual or some other wiring diagram. Study it for at least a couple weeks or until you are completely comfortable taking on the task.

Color code your wires and label both the old and new ones with paper tape and a permanent marker so that you know what each one is for.

Last but not least, make sure that the battery is disconnected... ;o)

SOURCE: how do i replace the

you need to disconnect the speedometer then remove the 6 or 8 screws that hold the instrument panel to the dash.if its an automatic you will have to unhook the shift indicator cable from the shift colume.then pull the instrument panel out of the dash,turn the panel upside down and you will see the bulb sockets.replace all the bulbs at this time so you won`t have to do this again for another bulb.when hooking up the shift indicator cable make sure it indicates the properly selected gear when moving the shifter to each gear position.

Slow windows on a 1982 el camino why

Could be the motors, or resistance in the window tracks.

Does my 1985 el camino have to have check engine light

In regions where smog checks are required to register your vehicle, YES. In regions where smog checks are not required, you should fix the CHECK ENGINE light anyway, as it is an important warning of engine issues.

How do I remove and install driver window weather strip on 1985 Chevrolet el camino?

The best way is remove the door panel and take out the glass. Part of the track is bolted in and some of it just presses into the channel. Any of the seals across the top of the door, like if the window is down and your arm is resting on them. These just pry off and push back on.

How to remove power window motor

You have to remove the interior door panel first and the plastic behind it. There are 3 bolts holding the window motor in place, the nuts are not welded to the body, so 2 wrench's are necessary. With the bolts out, just slide the arms out of the window track. Don't forget to hold the window or it will fall down and possibly break. Installation is just the reverse.
To remove the door panel, unscrew the door lock and take the 2 screws out of the arm rest. You will find 2 more screws under the arm rest that have to come out.Use a screwdriver and pop the panel from the door and lift it up to remove it from the window lip. Hope this helps.
