Step one: remove door panel lotsa screws and clips look everywhere before you decide its loose.

Step 2: take a drill and drill out the pop rivets holding the window in place. Take it out and put it out of the way.

Step 3: Get out your wrachet and 10mm socket and undo the bolts. Two at the top the regulator 2 at the bottom of the regulator and take out two holding the motor & assembly in but just losen the one that has the slot to slide it out ( it lines you up to put it back in) Don't forget the elec. connectors

Step 4: inspect the regulator if broken replace, if not its the motor and replace. I usually replace the whole assembly because its much easier to put back.

Step 5; bolt it in the way you took it out. Use two 10 mm bolts with washes on both sides to bolt the window back in in place of the rivets. also before tighting the bolts roll the window all the way up and then tighten.

Pop rivets? you just unbolt the window from the regulator assembly.
