Do I need to take the whole assembly out, then re build it or something.? I'd apreciate any info

First of all, Jav... welcome!

Now, as for your problem, it's just the window regulator. A typically faulty product in 89-94 Maximas, and just as easily fixed. I'd recommend either finding one in the "for sale" forum that another .orgy member is selling, or buy one from Courtesy Nissan (check the "links" section for address/ordering info). It'll be a heckuva lot cheaper than buying it locally.

Once you get the parts, hit someone up here and we'll either give you some instruction on how to swap it out, or show you to someone that DOES.

Enjoy the ride!!

 

Cool thanks bro! I just want to be sure that's what it is. Is the regulator the whole pulley sytem? Or just that pulley part on the motor that wraps the colrd around itself? Thanks again!
Jav

 

It's actually the whole pully system, minus the motor.

 

lol niice, well at least the motor is good huh? How much these things usually run? I'm in Cali, so wish me luck! Thanks again bro,,If you ahve aim, hit me up Artwistj
Peace,

I've got AIM, but only at home (I'm at work right now - bummer). I'll put you on AIM when I get home at 8 (6, your time).

IIRC, those regulators cost in the $50-$60 range from Courtesy Nissan. When I tried to price one locally, it was close to $100. So, you see, it'd be in your best interest to get it from Courtesy, Tustin, or one of those places that offer discounts for .orgY members.

You might even be able to get one cheap from internetautomar.... he sells just about everything else, so that might help you, too.

 

Holy crap whatcha doing at work so late??? I am on nights myself.

 

I do register/computer support for every McDonalds in the U.S. And darn if there aren't 24 hour McD's in spots where people don't know the meaning of a good night's sleep!

 

Yes I do window regs 3 out of 4 are $45 ea plus ship
the other one is 55 + ship

 

there's a 24 hour Mickey D's AND one that is open from 7 am-11 pm here in a town of 17k people..


Yeah, the regulators internetautomar sells work just fine..I'm happy with the 2 I purchased, and I'm contemplating buying a rear right for when this one that I haven't replaced goes out..although, they seem to have a LITTLE more resistance in them than the stock ones do..course, that may just be my motors getting weak from sitting unused for a good while before I replaced the regulators...My right front went from May 2001 to December 2003 and my rear left went from April 2003 to December 2003..

 

Well Ifound some here in LA Glendale has them for 70 each. New, warranty, all the good stuff. And I don;t have to pay for shipping.

 

That ain't a deal.
Nissan new at the dealer are only about 60.
Besides mine ARE 100% brand new anyways and still with shipping cheaper than $70.

A word to the wise:
Look before you open your mouth.
and be thought the fool!

 

I'll have to check yours out then ,..just seems easy to drive down the street to a nissan dealer for 70.. Let me see your prices, big dog.
J

 

a dog would imply a b!tch
I'm more of a donkey (A$$)

anyways $45 ea front or rear left. Rear right $55
Both plus shipping.

 

How long do you take to ship? And how long does your ground option take to get to Los Angeles?

 

I'd probably just have drop shipped so figure about 5 business days on the high side

 

why does the rear right cost more?

If you haven't gotten yours yet, check these sites out. I don't know what shipping costs, though.

I might be getting mine from here. I don't actually need it yet; just the front-left motor. The thing is I've gone through 2 motors in about 18 months so I'm thinking of just replacing the regulator, also. My other windows still work but move up slow once the window is about 80% closed. I heard of people replacing the wire and/or greasing them up.

The cheapest for a front-left motor that I've seen is about $100 new. So far, my window is sealed shut; I eat less fast food because of that.

good luck

 

it costs me more for some reason

 

oh okay, i guess that sums it up
