My comment is hopefully taken as a positive token in tribute to one of my favorite people…
I love your voice. It reminds me of Fred Rogers. Very calming and relaxing way you speak. Sounds very similar.
I have always found that doing your removal at home helps you make a tool list of what you should take to the junk yard to get the part you need. Nothing worse than getting out there and not having what you need to do the job. Thanks for the video.
I've always found that doing the removal in the junk yard first teaches me how to do stuff before I tear into my own stuff!
@@ncognitod.460 I can see the advantages of your method.
@@ncognitod.460 Yes I did that too. I was afraid to scratch up my b13 too much but it was ok to make mistakes on the junkyard car
This video saved the day! Great battery trick allowed me to get the window up on my girl's truck in time for the rain storm. Thanks so much sir!
You are the man. Once again Matt saves the day and gives me the advice i needed to keep my shitbox peice of shit jeep functioning.
Great video! I watched it twice, then had the whole replacement done on my 20 year old Jeep driver's side door in 35 minutes. It also helped that the old Jeeps were really designed to be repaired easily.
Hi. I'll be replacing a driver side one on an '01. Would you mind telling me where you purchased the new motor?
@@ianmackenzie686 Hi Ian - RockAuto has a good array of choices. I got a lower cost one and it works just fine, although it's a tad slower than the OEM.
Even though it is 3years old it still helped. The glass can be unbolted it the up position in a 97 xj and held in place with soft tipped clamps. Thanks for posting your videos, they are helpful...👍
What does the age of the vid matter? The year of the car and part remains the same for infinity
I'm sure there are other reasons why he removed the window (future video content?) but that's not necessary to get the regulator out. Just tape or GENTLY clamp the window in the up position once you remove the two bolts.
excellent video but u can skip removing the glass, just tape it to the top of the door during the regulator swap
This is a great example as to why you should always read the comments before you start a project! I was dreading pulling all that off- or rather reinstalling it all.
crim son yay :]
Could you please recommend a tape that will secure the window and not leave a ton of residue on the glass to clean when the project is complete?
not from personal experience as i used duct tape lol. but here is a copy and paste for you: Gaffer tape, also known as cloth tape, typically leaves no residue. The product is similar in appearance to duct tape and comes in varying widths and colors. A relatively recent entry into the marketplace is no-residue duct tape. Its manufacturer claims it won't leave any residue behind, as long as the tape is removed within six months of application.
windshield tape
perfect timing video!! my wife's window reg just took a crap! Thanks guy's
Don't bother splicing the wires, just take the control module out of the door panel (3 screws) and plug it in- this is assuming your passenger window control switch actually works! There are other youtube videos on how to fix that issue as well.
If the motor works why are u replacing it? If the motor works by jumping it, to me that would indicate it’s the switch or a connection from the switch to the motor?
Just so everyone knows apparently the 2 door regulating unit is different than the 4 door regulating unit.
I thought I was gonna figure this out, but then hes talking about stripping wires and hot wiring.
Matt: on the automotive diy Mt. Rushmore.Hahaha!
Love these Pull A Part vids! Helpful and funny too. Looks like the Cherokee regulators could be retrofitted to other hot rods etc.
Good video. All you need is a 10m socketand or wrench and a Phillips screwdriver
its wired to watch matt do what i do for a living😂. also that plastic thing glued on to the door is called a vapor barrier
PERFECT timing! I have to do this to mine this weekend!
I guess I am pretty off topic but does anybody know of a good website to watch newly released movies online?
@Avery Raylan I would suggest flixzone. Just google for it :)
@Maximilian Garrett Yup, I have been using FlixZone for months myself :)
@Maximilian Garrett thank you, I went there and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :) I appreciate it !!
@Avery Raylan Glad I could help :)
Thanks for taking the time to make the video, was wondering how to do this. Now I know. Cheers.
this is so timely as I'll be doing this very soon
You are awesome came to show you some love
Any time I need to fix my XJ BleepinJeep is the first video I click.
Great idea top prop the door open. I used my kid's bike yesterday.
just dont use your fingers
THANKS MATT,just replacing mine now!!🔩🔧🔩
with winter ahead, maybe a video of how to prevent rust underneath? will just paint help or need to get paint to bare metal? rust can be brutal in midwest, is there anything i can do to slow this? keep it up guys, love the vids!
Before cutting a bolt, pop on a nut, then after cutting the bolt, remove the nut to restore the thread at the cut.
Great Video. Wish you made it last year before I swapped ALL my glass for privacy glass and 2 regulators! I hated that clicky noise so much but all good now!!
Keep the Videos coming brother, maybe do a how to pull an engine from a 2001 and put it in a 1998! lol.. wish me luck!
Thanks!
I got a different car, but the removal vid, sure helps!
Doin this on my powerstroke this weekend 👍🏽
So if the motor works and it goes up and down, how is it the regulator
That's what instantly popped in my head.
Sure made it look easy will be doing mine soon great video keep it up
Did it work I need to try to get window up and closed
Yes it works great good luck
Thanks for the tips
Thank you!!!
Thanks brotha
Great video Matt. I wish I could've seen this a few months ago when I went to Pull A Part to get window for my 99. Is the glass itself interchangeable between power and manual windows?
Say, can you give me a tutorial on how to apply the alligator clips and electrical tape, basically the Jerry rigged motor you made?
Hello, this is very helpful....am trying to hot wire with alligator clips to put window in UP position but is not working.
Thanks mine made a weird sound now my window won't roll up straight.
would you be able to reuse the weather stripping after taking it off? and also would you know what kind of glue it is to use to put the cover back on?
Matt some earlier model jeeps had power windows in The Laredo's I have a jeep 89 pioneer xj I was wondering can I pull a 89 Laredo's door panel off that had power windows. And put it on my 89 pioneer. Will it work? If it does can you do a vid. You can borrow your dads zombie jeep. To do it on for the vid . Plz respond back Matt thanks
please please please can you do a vid on a manuel regulator for 98 cherokee
u guys need to make a how to hook up for the high idle mod
Would the hotwire method used in this video be able to work even on a regulator motor that doesn't work at all? If not, then is there a method avaliable to slide the window down in order to access the two bolts that hold the window to the regulator, besides cutting the drive cable? Thanks!
should the motor and long gear thing be in front or behind the track
Why remove glass? Couldn’t you release with a clip at bottom, push back, up and then tape in that position?
The achoo 🤣🤣🤣
Does it need to be a 12v power battery?
Do you know if 2 door and 4 door front regulators are the same size? I’ve got an 88 2 door and need to replace mine but can’t find any info on them, manuals btw
You can often fix the bad regulators with a .20 cent cotter pin.
How so?
off the subject, have you replaced a floor panel in jeep cherokee? thanks.
If you could get the window down in the first place would you need to skip the hot wiring?
Sure
Beauty sledge hammer trick
hi my window on my impreza bugeye wagon keeps dropping an there aint no noise when you press the button for it to go up an down is that down to the regulator?
How about changing it from power to manual. jeep windows are to picky. Easier to make it crank! I think! :)
@BleepinJeep how come you don't have any wj projects or builds. I have a wj I picked up 3 weeks ago that I've done a ton to in that 3 weeks. 4 inch lift, engine removal for rebuild, roof rack, in break kit. Think some people would like to so some wjs
never had the desire to own a ZJ or WJ
+BleepinJeep understandable. I think you could get a lot more content drivin towards you vides due to the fact there are not a ton of videos on wjs. But love all the videos you guys have. Ton of good info l.
I did this with my 99 xj. The window goes all the way up almost perfect, but at the very top, it starts to go up crooked. Any ideas of what I did wrong?
Go to 3 minute mark. When you reinstall the glass and all the screws in the regulator everything needs to be centered. A little left or right and you'll be off-track. push it all the way up by hand, mark the position or see that it's straight and then tighten the bolts, test your window before you put everything back together.
Here's my question, can I take a manual door, and put my electric door panel on it?
The previous owner of my jeep was rough on it so it's got a flimsy mirror and it's dented to shit. Now my uncle has jeeps sitting around and was thinking about taking just the door, is that doable?
If you can figure out the wiring sure.
Cool thanks
Anyone know what tools are needed?
I have a Question. So my 1999 Jeep Cherokee Sport has Electric Windows. When I close my drivers window and you hold the switch too long it makes a grinding sound like the motor wants to keep pushing it up even though it is fully closed. What does that mean?
There are videos about that problem that help troubleshoot that. I would type in "jeep cherokee window problem" and stuff should show up. One guy had the regulator out and if I remember correctly it was some weird plastic retainer piece that was broken but do not quote me on that.
Do I need to disconnect the battery?
I know this video is 5 years old but i have a 93 jeep Cherokee 2 door and manul window and can't find a new one anyway HELP
hey what was up with removing the newest video?
is there a way to swap it over from electric to hand crank
yes you have to pull the bar out that screws into the window, and then replace the door panel with a manual one with the hole
how do you do this on a rear window
👍
I dont get it "If the window worked with hot and ground wiring "Why take it out"?????
Im confused as well... How can u do this when the motor fails?
He could be replacing the regulator.
In my instance the motor works fine. It's the worm spring thingy that's broken.
Lol.. good lord ppl you do not have to take the weather stripping off at all it’s a waste of your time and his as well.
Blessings, John 3:16. Jesus loves you.
Do the same regulators work for the rear as well??
I believe they are different
BleepinJeep that sucks because I cant find full regulator assembly's anywhere:/
So what would the problem be if when I try rolling down the back right window it dosent work from either the door switch or driver switch and it dosent even make sounds like it's trying to roll? Would that be motor problem? I know very little about cars but I want to learn how to do this stuff on my own.
i miss my powered windows. now i have ones that zip open and close for my soft top lol
can you do a manual for a 91
I need to know this too
Where can I get a manual window regulator for my Jeep
If I could use the motor to activate my window than I wouldn't be replacing my motor.......DUH-UH.
This is a video on replacing the regulator, not the motor. Duh-uh.
You made it complicated 😂
how Mitch for one of the trucks
Super my Car is now running 👌😜
Is it weird that I was cringing hard when he was pulling out the weather stripping???😳😬😰
how about a 2000 2 door
It should be the same. You just have a bigger window to remove.
Not the same. Just took it apart and I have two tracks. Looks like a bigger Motor that loops in to both of the tracks. They don't make the part any longer.
+Jacob Pinney Oops, sorry bout that. I thought that it would be the same. What part do you need though?
madram11
hehe
What a mess I rather have manual
Your getting gray hair bud
