Not your average window question!

alright, i found out that my window regulator has completely failed on the driver's door, (~insert sarcastic tone~)What! window trouble on a 3rd gen maxima, that's odd.
But, back to my question, The window is rolled completley down and i was told that you would have to pull it up manually to reach the regulator, is this true and if it is how could i do this with out damaging anything else inside my door.

Holla back!

if your regulator did break..you can just reach in and lift/push the glass up since it won't be under tension of the regulator.

Even if it is still connected and binding, once you get the panel off the door you can see what the problem is and disconnect the regulator.

it'll all become clear once you get the door panel off, and use craigs fAQ. if you need to get it up right now and you cant do it from above just take the door panel off and push it up from the bottom. it wont damage anything
