    Thanks 1aauto, I just saved a ton because of your video. I bought my regulator/motor from napa & of course they didny tell me that there were 6 rivets holding it in place so I used my dremmel to cut the heads off the punched it out with a screw driver....then I needed help with finding out how to put the new one in by the motor & thats when I found your video on how to install, it helped me out very much. you are the man.

    The video turned a dreaded job into an easy one. I installed a brand new regulator and motor assembly in the front passenger door of my 1999 Expedition between my morning and afternoon work shifts. Total cost...$75. Many thanks!

    Rivet replacement fasteners (bolts/nuts):
    The 11mm head flange nuts are sitting on M6 screws, which, per standards, should be 10mm heads, but this is Ford, so, what's a standard?
    So, your options are:
    Cheapest option are 1/4" SAE fasteners. You've got two different thread pitch options, 20tpi and 28tpi (20 being a coarser thread), but either should work just fine. 1/4"-20x3/8" is like 9.5mm long, so that shouldn't be an issue, but if you want it a bit longer, than a 1/4"-20x1/2" is 12.7mm long
    M6 x 1.0 x 10 bolts (6mm shank, 1.0mm thread, 10mm long) - these will fit with no problem, but you'll now have (4) 11mm nuts and (6) 10mm nuts, if that bothers you.
    Third option, and what I did, was sourcing some M7 x 1.0 x 10 bolts and M7 nyloc nuts. I had to hog out the door holes and regulator mounting holes a hair (3/8" drill bit), but now all of my fasteners are 11mm head.

    Your video made what initially looked like a complete PITA on my '99 F-150 a simple procedure. Can't thank you enough. Since my motor was fried, I could not lower the window. Even so, the top 2 bolts are easily accessible with a little touch and feel with a 1/4 drive ratchet and 11mm socket (be sure to tape the window securely in place beforehand). Once I had the rivets drilled out and the 2 lower nuts removed, the entire assembly popped right off (I could not get the top of the assembly off the widow frame beforehand due to tension). Replaced the rivets with 1/4-20x1/2 hex washer bolts. I did have to temporarily connect the assembly in order to raise the top bracket back to near where the window frame sits on re-installation. The entire job took barely over an hour from removal to replacement. Ordered the part from 1Aauto, came in 2 days (best price on the internet and no shipping), fit perfect and works perfect. Customer for life.

      Thank you for sharing the hex bolt size that you used to replace the rivets. I’m changing out the original window reg and motor on my 98 Expedition this week. It’s the original and still works but it works real slow and it got stuck last winter. Not dealing with that again this year.

    Used this video to replace my window regulator. Works great. Watch out for the lifting spring, there are no stops on the oem regulator when replacing just the motor. I will buy parts in the future from these people just because of this video, which really helps

    • @mtbridingog9083
      @mtbridingog9083 4 года назад

      Yep people listen to this dude .. I literally almost just cut my finger off have to wrap it up with 4 band aids because I cut the nail off completely the spring has lots of tension on it .

    • @rodbonser
      @rodbonser 3 месяца назад

      Indeed,
      My window was stuck in the down position, and the only way I could figure out how to proceed was to drill out access holes and remove the motor leaving the regulator behind.
      But if you do that, the regulator lifting spring will unwind either in the window or as soon as you pull it out. WATCH OUT... It can hurt or injure!
      I think it's possible to make a jig out of wood to rewind and hold the motor mount in position, but IMO it's just not worth it due to the low cost of the units as a pair.

    Very helpful video! Thank you!
    Re that obstructed rivet/bolt hole: I didn't have a wrench that would reach or fit so I put the nut on a popsicle stick with some blue painter's tape. I may have gotten a little tape under the nut but I think it will be ok. Could have used adhesive as well.
    The biggest problem I had was the grinding/buzzing loudness of the new regulator. I realized that, compared to the original Ford part, the new regulator was essentially not lubricated. Grease and oil quieted it down some but not nearly as much as I hoped for.
    I guess that's one reason these aftermarket regulator/motor combos are so inexpensive.

  • @1AAuto

    You may want to first test the wire going to the window motor to see if there's power going to it. If there is it may be the window motor that has gone bad. Also check the fuses to see if any of them are blown.

    • @1AAuto
      @1AAuto  9 лет назад

      If you go to a local auto body supply store, they should be able to provide you with the correct glue to hold the window in place. If there isn't one in you area, your local auto parts store may also have it for you. Hope this helps you out. 1aauto.com 866-403-3393

  • @1AAuto
    @1AAuto  13 лет назад

    @Cobramlw I really can't tell but it does sound like you put in the spring wrong. It could also be the joints in your regulator are worn, I always recommend replacing the motor and regulator at the same time.

    There's not really a specific size, probably like 1/4" bolts may work.

  • @markmaddox5984
    @markmaddox5984 26 дней назад

    In all the videos I've watched about this topic, no one has mentioned which side the black spacer on the lower rail of the regulator is supposed to go. In three videos, I've observed the spacer being on the left (or unhinged side) of the door as the originial regulator assembly is removed. In your part one video, it appears the spacer is on the left side as you remove the regulator assembly. In this installation video, you reassemble the regulator with the black spacer on the right (or hinged side) of the door. I assume there is a correct way.

    @98offroadFORDexpo I used M6 1.0X12MM and they worked fine. The only thing I did different on the install was install all the bolts with the nut on the outside (not interior to the door.)
    This video was extremely helpful and also got me to buy my regulator and motor from 1AAuto :)
    One thing that I noticed does not work any more is my 'auto' roll down. Was the 'auto' roll down a function of the original motor or is that a function of the door switch?

    • @1AAuto
      @1AAuto  7 лет назад +1

      +lukesk8z26 Thank you for checking us out. You will be able to manually lower the window, but you would want to secure it so it doesn't fall if at all up. We recommend disconnecting the power to the motor and attempt to lower, and if that doesn't work you would (with the help of another) disconnect the motor from regulator to relive the pressure. 1aauto.com

    I like your video but you have no inside shots of what we should see. The more camera angles of views the better for people under standing. But thank you. I'll have to research more. Thx

    what size bolts and nuts did you use to replace the rivets with.

      +John Svensson We wouldn't be able to diagnose an issue like that here, you may want to have a local mechanic take a look at it. Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
