Window regulator fix for Sc models
#61
RalAegidius, good points. Another thing I've found is that the 92-early 94 are different P/N than the late 94-00. Possibly different design. I know i couldn't remove my regulator seperate from the motor - I had to pull them out as a unit. Also, good news is that I've sourced a regulator w/motor out of a '98 from a salvage yard up north and I should have it by the end of the week - total cost $80, plus shipping, I'll take it.

For the record, i have both styles of regulator here. One has a shorter spread on the bolt pattern, and the rail is shorter, as is the cable. one will not bolt up in place of the other. All the bolts are off by at least half an inch.

Does anyone have the Toyota/lexus part number for just the regulator part(not the whole assembly including the motor)?? It would be nice to have the correct part number when I go to the dealership for pricing. Thanks

I just replaced my driver side window regulator today and was curious if most of you guys who have taken out your regulators if your window automatically drops down from its position? The reason I am asking is because I drove around for 4 months without the regulator in place and whatever position I put my window in it stayed put and was a ****** to move up and down. Could my window frame be overly dirty and grimey from the past 12 years to the point where the window is difficult to move up and down or is this the case for most of you guys. Let me know because if this isn't the case then I'm going to have to clean the hell out of my window frame.

when you get everything cleaned up. However, DO NOT USE SPRAY LITHIUM GREASE, it will operate smoothly at first, but then it turns tacky and will actually impede movement.

going to pick up one of these for my wife's '94 SC4 and figured I'd post the part number for reference.
Drivers side regulator only (no motor) for early production (1/94 or earlier build date):
P/N: 69802-24032
retail price is $166ish, so be sure to ask for a discount.

Trials and tribulations...
I tried OLT's fix as well, but to no avail. I think it was mostly due to the failure of the plastic part to begin with, not the fix itself. I sanded, and I cleaned the surfaces with alcohol, but the part just broke again once the window reached the full up position. I have a piece of wood propping up the window inside the door.
Now, to find another regulator, passenger side, and cheap!

respooling window regulator/motor?
I've searched and read all the threads on fixing the plastic slide in the window regulator. I had already decided to replace mine with a new part as my motor is still good. I've removed the regulator and motor and will pick up the replacement regulator tomorrow AM for the transplant. Upon removal, it was obvious that a replacement was the only way to go in my case, my clip was broken in 2 places - one of the slide ears was half gone, and the center section break that is the common failure point.
Is swapping these out going to be as easy as unspooling and respooling the cable/wheel in the motor housing? I haven't seen any posts that detail the regulator replacement so any help is appreciated.
Many thanks for any advice or tips.

PS - I'll be sure to charge the camera & take pics of the assembly process for future reference.
