Question
The driver's side power window is bindining when trying to put it down. On inspection, the guide bar seems to twist when the motor engages. do I need to replace the bar, and if so what is it called(or part#) and how to replace/

Thx,  Dan

Answer
Hello Dan,

I have had very little experience with this particular model.  The only thing I can remember is that the door glass has two plastic "inserts" that are used to connect to the glass to the window regulator.  When these plastic pieces break, the glass will no longer move properly even though the window regulator and motor are working.  If this is your problem, I don't recommend you attempt to repair it yourself.  It takes someone with ample knowledge of how to remove and re-install the door glass on a "frameless" door.

Sorry I can't be more helpful.
