    Power Window Question

    Hello all -

    I have a 71 convertible with power windows. My passenger side window goes say 7/8 of the way up (nice and strong) and then stops and there is a particular clicking sound. To raise the window the rest of the way, I can pull it up and it will stop and seal. If I try to use the motor to take it down, it will not engage unless I push the window down a little. I have not torn the door panel off to check what the actual problem is.

    Was wondering if this was a probable alignment issue or if something is foo-fooed with the regulator or gears? If anyone has any ideas or has experienced a similar problem before I get into this, I would love to hear from them.

    Thanks in advance -

    Pat

    Sounds like the regulator needs repair or replacement.

      I had the same exact problem with my 78 years ago. The teeth are worn off of the regulator. I ended up fabricating a part just like the one in the link below. I think it would be just what you need, unless you would rather take out and replace the regulator assembly. It was a simple repair, and worked very well for me.

      Mid America has them under part number 602-131 1968-82 Power Window Regulator Gear

      I have not used this particular vendor nor their part, but it was the clearest example of what you need.
