I put in a new regulator from 1aauto, but I still have a problem where the window goes crooked and gets stuck halfway when going up. My old regulator was bent, so i thought that was the problem. After replacing, I have the same problem. Any idea why the window isn't coming up stratight? It seems to get stuck and the black plastic starts bulging outwards when you operate the window upwards.

@nyballer322 I would check all of the door seals to make sure they are fastened to the door properly, and that there wasn't anything in the way of the window rolling up.I would also check for any guides or fasteners in the door that might need to be adjusted.

Got as far as the spring. Got the spring off and can not get that centre plug off the regulator?? Any advice?

Thanks. Both windows begin to bog down about 2/3 of the way up and then slowly creep up closed.

My passenger side finally gave up and I had to replace the regulator. I've seen this on several montanas/ventures. It appears the felt (stripping area) inside the door about 8" below the side mirror gets out of shape causing additional friction which caused the window to grab.

I slowly and evenly pried the stripping back towards the interior to open it up and seemed to helped.

@BowenDesignWorks A little trick you can try is to spray some silicone on the window sweeps. It will help the window to glide easier. You can find it in a spray form at the local parts store. We carry a great amount of parts for your vehicle on 1aauto.com

Great Video. It would be nice if you explained at the first of the video why you are replacing the part.

What are the symptoms that cause the need to replace the window regulator.

@BowenDesignWorks Usually when an electric window regulator goes, the window slides to the bottom of the door, and usually you can't roll it back up with the window switch.

@nascarfan1959 Once you get the door panel off you will be able to look in there and see what the problem might be.
