Afternoon everyone - hope the sun's shining where you are
Yesterday my driver's window glass slipped into the door - not all of it and managed to grab it and put it back in place. Today I'm trying to fix it:S There's nothing wrong with the wiring or switch etc, all work apart from the glass has slipped.
The window glass fell right into the body of the door when I tried the electric switch today. I have managed to get the glass out by loosening all the bolts attached to the window regulator. However I don't know how to put the glass back in place. I've looked down the opening where the glass goes and I can't see anything that the glass would rest on when going up and down :S. What I can see is a hole in the glass at the bottom on the left as if a bolt goes through it but nothing seems to correspond to this.
Once I get the driver's side fixed I will know how to fix the passenger side - that window has never opened even though the motor, switch and fuse are all working - noises happen but the window doesn't move. Really need to get them both fixed as there is no air con and it's getting warmer by the day
All help very much appreciated .
As an update on Van Diesel - it has had a new timing belt, new auxiliary belt, new water pump, new battery and a couple of new seals - £650! Because of this expense it still hasn't had a full service but it's the next plan.
I've painted the back of the rear seats and the luggage floor and also fitted a reclaimed boot liner! It is looking much smarter now. Still haven't sorted the roof liner but plan to go to a scrappy when I have some money and get that and all the plastic trims for the luggage area that are missing or dog-chewed [/align]
