      Funny how that works cuz I said the same thing about that ridiculous Chevy 2500 I used to own. I loved that engine and that smooth transmission but man I hated everything else about that truck! I'd fix one thing and 5 others would break. Then I'd get them fixed and something else would go. Never had that trouble with my Ford trucks.

      Dunno man, I have a 74 Mercury Comet (profile pic) that never put me down out on the road. I had a few component failures over the years but I always made it home as long as I had a 1/4 inch, flat, long screwdriver, kept it under the seat for the duration of owing that car.
      Always made it to my driveway, might have to replace a part to get *out* of my driveway but I *always* made it home.
      I even used that flathead to put an alternator belt on it one time, mine broke, I had my old belt in the trunk (always kept the old belt as a spare for just such occasion) and I managed to put a belt on it with only a flathead screwdriver. Plenty of busted, bleeding knuckles and it squealed like mad but I made it home...
      Power steering line busted, I used a pencil, a fuel hose clamp and that trusty flathead to plug the line so I could make it home without burning up the pump. The power steering belt also ran the water pump so I couldn't just pull the belt. I've since removed the entire power steering assembly and changed the belt routing.

    I bought a 94 F150 and had the window get stuck. Went to fix it like this video shows - turns out the previous owner had already done the fix (dimples were drilled out) using nuts to replace the broken plastic. Turns out one of the nuts had shifted and jammed the gear. Replaced the nuts with J.B. weld and it worked like a charm. Thanks for this video!

  • @JohnMiller-zm5cf
    @JohnMiller-zm5cf 3 года назад +8

    Thank you Ford for providing the dimples to drill out to a final hole size of 1/2”. WAY easier then disassembling the entire window assembly. (I guess this was done in anticipation of “planned obsolescence” part failure).
    At 9:20 what has broken was a plastic spacer between the plastic gear (that fits the worm gear on the motor) and the metal sprocket that rolls up the window. This part is nor any longer available from Ford. Ya can't afford it if it were. (Seems I asked years ago and the repair was hundreds but NA now)... My F250 has had both motors replaced by someone prior to me repairing them both again today. 11:27 LOL I used JB Weld too and it works well. Dry's over night (24hr) and fixed both windows for $10. (Don't use JB Weld Quick. Use the 24 hr formula). 13:50 Snap-ring holds the gear down. One of my windows didn't have one, the other did. Still works, but should put it on to maybe save another trip of getting this all apart again. BTW, if you remove the speaker you will have better access for reinstalling the motor. To make sure the sprocket is in place properly. Don't totally tighten down the screws until you tap the up/down button to see if it works. One of mine was riding on top of the device it fits in and snapped down into place. Then I finished tightening down the screws. My biggest hassle was getting the door knob through the hole / fighting it with the door cover when reinstalling it.
    *Note: When putting the screws back installing the motor, put a dash of grease on the heads of the nuts which kinda glues them to the socket to keep from dropping them into the bottom of the door. Old mechanics trick learned years ago...

    The plastic bushings inside the gear are suppose to be a saftey mechanism, so if you get something stuck in the window the bushings are to break apart before the window itself.

    Greetings from along the 45th parallel
    1995 F-150, driver door window repair. Did all that drilling etc. Only dropped one bolt. Retrieved with a magnet and God's help. Opened the motor assy etc. and cleaned everything. I used a jeweler's screwdriver and a fine-point gasket pic to remove the keeper on the shaft. On the reinstall, I dabbed the socket with superglue gel, set in the stud, let it set for five then installed the studs easy peazy. By the time I got to number three, almost didn't need any glue. For the control repair, I mixed up some epoxy and glued two small hex nuts into each cavity. The window goes down and up! I am thankful to you and your ideas for repair. Thank you. BTW, I like the looks of your ride!

  • @robfoletta7829
    @robfoletta7829 3 года назад +1

    Thanks your video. It helped me fix mine without having to buy a new motor. I pulled mine apart and found the plastic pieces were destroyed like yours were but mine was packed with grease. We cleared out all the broken plastic and the motor would still not run. So we took the motor apart and reseated the brushes inside and it started working. So we put in the nuts like you did and now my window on the passenger side works for the first time in over 10 years. I got this truck from my dad after he passed away and needed to replace the weather stripping but before I could do that I had to fix the window in order to get that done.

  • @jonathanharris8277
    @jonathanharris8277 4 года назад +2

    1/2 bit and 18v drill to drill the dimples - easy.
    1/4 inch hex nuts to fill the three slots where the plastic had crumbled. Its easiest to set the gear halfway on the mount then slip the 1/4 hex nuts into the slots - easy.
    I used two small nails to separate and remove the slip ring (do this inside an old amazon box to if you are worried about loosing the ring) - easy
    I did break one of the weather stripping clips because I wasn't gentle in removing the door panel over the door lock. After that, I slowed down....didn't loose a screw in the bottom of the door!

    You are a good man! Thank you SO much for making this vid! Without it, would have had to take to a $hop 'cause I would've had no idea how to fix my window. Even though there's only 58K miles on my '93 (yea, really), that plastic inside the motor had crumbled. Your hex nut idea worked. I dropped that bottom screw twice, so I stuck it to my nutdriver with a tiny bit of Elmers. The man of the house is impressed that Ms Fixit has done it again, lol.

Got ring off by carefully using 2 of my more pointy drill bits one in each hole and rocking it back n forth 90 degrees to shaft . May need to bend them tighter after reinstall them into their groove. I assume they are there to keep gear from walking off shaft over time? Thanks again!

    Just did this job early in the week with the help of your video the hardest and most time consuming part was fishing out one of the motor screws that fell inside and neatly hid behind some of the curved sheet metal. It looked just like yours when I opened it up but I used a repair kit from Amazon to replace wore out parts odd that AC Delco makes it but for around $15 you get everything you need for replacement for one door.

    This is a clutch mechanism. The balls compress and let the rack and pinion turn, if the window hits an object.
    If the plastic clutch balls are replaced with steel or JB weld, the window motor could strip the helical teeth underneath and/or pinch someone's neck to the point of suffocation. This is safety stuff. Be careful , you'll shoot your eye out.....

      The original keys were lost and the new keys were made when I bought the truck. So I don't know if the original keys were the same way when locking/unlocking the passenger door.

      hard to tell... the originals may have been like that too, or the ones you had made...might be one of the teeth needs ground down a tad or something but if it works fine elsewhere..I dunno, Will probably get better over time as the keys start to wear down a little

      Kyle Krause How did you get keys made for your truck? and are the keys for the locks in the door the same for the key in the ignition or different?

    • @Krause_transport_garage
      @Krause_transport_garage 7 лет назад

      The door keys are different than the ignition keys. From what I was told they made the door keys by removing the lock cylinder on the drivers door. The 2 keys that were cut work great in the drivers door but stuck in the passenger door. As I mentioned I've used wd40 and nothing's helped.

    Window lift repair kit on Amazon for about 21 bucks. Replacement motor is about 45. PS the kit I bought didn't come with the c-clip so try not to lose that thing, cuz that's a trip to Home Depot and that takes more time than the window lift motor cost.

    What did you drill out the door with? My largest metal drill bit is 3/8 inch, which is too small for the nut driver to fit, and the hole doesn't line up exactly with the motor bolts. Need a bigger hole, but don't know what to use. Suggestions anyone?

Its common now that they are 20 plus ... Its easy Using a small flat screwdriver you can get under the snap ring but hold it with plyers

    Not quite sure why you went about it that way. Those plastic buttons are dirt cheap, I picked up a box of 100 on Amazon for less than $8. Probably about the same price as you spent attempting to use JB weld. Simple repair, I've done literally hundreds over my career.

    • @TheFoxShop
      @TheFoxShop  7 лет назад

      Not 100% sure... possibly worn out bushings or something or may just need a front end alignment. Best bet would be to take it to a reputable alignment shop and have them do an alignment They will let you know if anything else is worn out.

    Well my passenger side door window just started the grinding act so I bought a pair of regulators for both sides with motors and I wanted to see how the fix/ replace them maybe I will just have to replace both motors instead of the whole regulators, who knows the driver side window doesn’t do the up or down or even make noise.
