Thanks for all you do for the S2K community!
this is becoming a master technician channel. difficulty level: 10
Timing really is everything! Can’t believe you just posted this recently. Working on a 2000 civic. The cover for the drive mechanism popped off and everything came apart. No broken parts. I searched for diagram or a vid, yours was the only one I found!! I was able to save $100 and do a same day repair because of this vid!! Thanks for saving me time and money!!!
thank you for this video, my regulator went out recently and i could not find a tutorial to save my life. you came in clutch
Thank you very much ! EP3 are getting tough to find as well.
Your timing is just impeccable!
My passenger window cable snapped just two days ago.
Thank you again for your service in the S2K community - you are the MVP! ❤✊
Where can I order this kit?
See the description for links
Every time something breaks or I want to do something to my s2 you guys beat me to it with a vid days before. Awesome 👏 😎
You have got to be the strongest person in the world to be able to put the cables on the spool with 2 hands and make it look that easy, im stuck
Great video and explanation. I used the same kit and couldn’t get it the wire to feed so ended up buying a used one which has worked over couple years now. At least I’ll have a spare. Thank you for all of your helpful videos!
Thank you so much for the video. Getting the cable around the spool is killing me. I just can’t see how it’s possible without monkey grip strength and/or a second pair of hands. I’ll have to come back to it when a friend can keep the blue pieces from flying out of the guides or the spool from pushing too far into the mechanism.
Another awesome vid! Always saving everyone time, and in this case $$$!
One thing, in several parts you refer to upper and lower. Once out of door, regulator top and bottom less obvious.
So make note of which way up (maybe draw an arrow on it as remove from door), so bench work easier.
Good point. Regulator top has two studs point vertically. Regulator bottom has two studs pointed horizontally.
Brilliant. thank you.
Mine went out like two weeks ago and I didn’t look at your videos and bought a new one. Smh luckily I found a brand new one on eBay for 300. But sadly still wasted more than the 75 bucks for the repair kit smh.
Thanks for the video. I have a question. How do power windows know when to stop?
There are stops on the windows
Looked like the cable broke up on the arm. The cables look like standard bike brake cables. I bet you could make your own with them if you get the length right and re use the end sstops.
if my regulator carriage is broken should i just get a new regulator altogether? thanks
Tooling of the spool is insufficient as the key end of the cable doesn't lock in properly. Combine this with straight braided cables along with springs makes it practically impossible. I've even created a jig to lock both springs down and the cable is still the wrong length for the correct tension. I'll do my best to modify and make work.
What perfect timing for this video! My passenger window is currently stuck in the down position. Initially it would auto roll down when you slightly press the button - now it won’t go back up. I took the panel off and felt the regulator and it was very hot. I unplugged and plugged it back in and it sparked. I do still hear the clicking sound when I try rolling the window up though.
Do you think this eBay kit is the possible solution or is there a chance the regulator/motor is fried? Thank you!
Not sure, I would disassemble again to verify. You should be able to see if a cable is broken pretty easily
@@DIYGuysvideo ahh, yes this would be an appropriate start. Thank you again and for all your videos. We appreciate you more than you know, man!
Hey man, it’s good to see you post after a while! Quick question: Both of my window regulators are working fine, but the automatic window down feature for the driver side window isn’t working. Any ideas on why that might be? Thanks in advance!
Try the automatic window reset procedure (should be on s2ki). If that does not work or you have to redo the reset procedure again, it’s a regulator issue. Do you happen to have an AP1? I have the same issue and there is a TSB for it.
@@DIYGuysvideo Sorry for the insanely late response. I saw the post on S2Ki that you’re referring to and will be sure to try it in a few weeks (currently putting ITBs and a truckload of other goodies on my AP1).
I’ll also look into that TSB. Thanks so much for the help!
Where did you purchase the repair kit ?
Link in the description.
is there a way to replace the motor? my passenger window does not go down all the way and gets stuck and needs help going back up. is that the motor or cable?
same here but it does go back up fine tho.
I don’t think there a cost efficient way to do it. You’d probably have to buy a used regulator to source the motor.
I’d imagine if your cable broke the window would fall down without using the motor. I have noticed broken cables jamming my own motor though.
@@DIYGuysvideo its so weird, it seems like it falls a little, then catches, and rolls down normally. can i send you a video for your two cents?
Go for it
Is Instagram the only way to contact you? I'm local and wanna see about getting work done, thanks.
Email works too. I think it’s on my RUclips profile about me section
I just looked, there's no email address there.
It’s under channel details, kinda hard to find but. Sovietaced@gmail.com
Oh ok, maybe I can't find it on my phone, but can find it on a laptop. In any case, email sent.
