Hi. My name is I'm Mike Green. I want to help you save time and money repairing your vehicle. I have 20-plus years experience restoring and repairing cars and trucks. My company, 1A Auto, sells high quality replacement parts over the internet. In this video, I will be showing you how to install these parts. By the end of this video, you do know how to install them and where to get them, that's going to save you time and money. Thank you and enjoy the video.

In this video, we'll be replacing a power window motor on this 2004 GMC Sierra. It's basically the same as any '99 to '06 Sierra and Silverado, Yukon, Escalade, all those trucks and SUVs. For this project, you'll need a medium flat blade screwdriver, a pair of needle nose pliers, 7mm socket and driver, a Torx driver small size (number 2), and a 10mm socket and driver.

For this, due to the YouTube 10-minute limit, we're going to speed up a lot of our stuff. First, it is the door panel. I'm going to go through that really quick for you. Pry out the door lock button. You remove the mirror panel and there are just two clips. You just use a screwdriver. I covered it in a rag so I wouldn't scratch the paint. Then the door handle trim plate. I just pry this out from the back, it comes off like that. Then, there's a small push pin, basically a plastic push pin. Start it with a screwdriver and then I use pliers to pull it out the rest of the way. There's a little tiny trim plate. Pull it off with your finger. Number two Torx screw, remove that quick.

I move real fast in this video. There's two other bolts, one right behind the lock right there. That's a 7 mm; remove that. And then another 7mm up under the door pull. Right there. Once those are removed, then the door panel basically lifts up and out, and then you're going to need to reach in behind, that's the courtesy light that I unplug there and then you need to unplug the power window switch and locks and everything. Actually it's also the mirror that plugs in there. This one is a little difficult. It's got a little lock tab and then that little grey lever actually pivots forward, so close up a bit and it comes out. You see me struggle here a little bit. Unplug it. There's one more on that master switch, and then unplug your speaker.

Once the door panel is removed, now we remove the door handle. Pry that blue clip away and then use your fingers to rod then pulls up and out. 10mm bolt, take that off and then the handle slides forward and off. Now, you want to carefully remove your water shield. This keeps water from getting into your truck so carefully remove it and then put it aside so it doesn't get damaged.

Then remove the handle or the switch plate. Take off a seven millimeter bolt on the backside and then pry it up and out from the back to front, like that. Obviously, if your window regulators messed up, you're not going to be able to control it. I'm doing this on a working truck so you can just see how everything comes apart. If your window regulator is broken, hopefully it's in the up position because that's the ideal position. You can see here, I'm going to run the window up and then I'll show you the two bolts that clamp the window into place from the window regulator; right there and right there. If your regulator's not working, then loosen these 10 millimeter bolts up. Pull the window apart and secure them in the up position with some tape. You'll see that later.

The window regulator is held in by six bolts. I just showed you three there: one, two, and three down there so six total. You can see, I'm securing the window in the up position, two pieces of tape, four might be better. Now I'm removing the six bolts that hold the window regulator. Quickly, working quick. You can see my father over there, working on one of his projects. He's in the plaid shirt, old school. I think he was putting the radio into a '74.

Now I'm running the window regulator down a little bit and it's released from the window now. Now I'm just taking the rest of the bolts off. Then, once you have all the bolts out you just twist the regulator, I'll slow it back down here. First unplug, obviously, the window motor, the little walking tab, and then pull it apart. Then you just twist the regulator down and around. Like I said, you'll want to remove your window from the clamps and get it in the up position and tape, so you have the room to maneuver this stuff.

Then you can see it's basically two rails with cables. Then once you've got it out then you can put your new one in. It looks like I skipped a little stuff there, but the new one goes in and then it hangs from up there. You can see right there, it hangs on there. Then you start a bolt and a cop and you hang up the back. The same thing, it has a little tooth that hangs up there. Start the bolts and then we'll speed up the tape here. All six bolts.

Again, look at those hands work. I'm quick. Then, when you take these, you can see I'm just using a screwdriver style driver. That's sufficient as long as you get them you always want to install them all first. You don't want to put one in and tighten it up. You want to put one in, screw it on for a few threads and then put the rest of them in too. Then go back and tighten them up afterwards. Putting them in one at a time allows you to move things around a little bit. Make sure you can get everything in.

Now I'm testing the regulator. Before I test it, obviously, you've got to plug it in. Just run it up.

Actually, I'm not testing it. I'm running it up into the window making sure that the clip clamps go onto the window okay. Running it right up and then I'll tighten up those clamps.

Now it's fastened to the window. Pull the tape off of the top and now I'll give the window a quick test. You can see it goes down and up. Make sure everything's free. Make sure the window motor is not laboring at all. Just make sure it runs the exact same way as your other side. That's about it. I hope this helps you out. These regulators fill quite a bit of these trucks. We hope this helped you out. I wish you luck in your repair.

In this video, we're going to show you how to replace the rear window regulator on this '02 GMC Sierra crew cab, same as any '99 to '02 GMC Sierra or Chevy Silverado and same as the later ones except the door panel removal might be a little different. Tools you'll need are a flat blade screwdriver, a 7mm socket with a ratchet and extension and a 10mm socket with ratchet and extension and a little bit of painter's tape as well.

There are two 7mm screws that you have to remove or bolts: one right in there and then one down in the bottom corner here. As well, you need to pry out this trim panel, pry out your lock button and pry out your window switch and disconnect it. First, put your finger under them. Pull out that bezel, take a regular screwdriver, stick it in the front there, and pull out your lock button. For your window switch, also pry out gently there. Get the front of it and then there's a little tab, use your screwdriver, push on it, pull the connector down and out. You can also pry out your light and reflector and disconnect it. Then use your 7mm socket and ratchet and extension. We'll just speed up here as we remove those two 7mm bolts. Once everything is unbolted then you just lift up on your panel and it comes off. Fast forward a little bit here. Slowly and carefully . I know I'm fast forwarding, but please slowly and carefully pull back your water shield so you can access the inside of the door panel.

I actually have my key on and my window switch is in. You can see that the window is clipped in by two 10mm nuts here. You tighten these and they tighten these clips up. Usually what happens on these regulators is the cable snap and in that case you can bring your window up and down anywhere you need it and, as you can see, there's plenty of room in this door that if your window motor is broken and it won't move, you should be able to get in there and get at them. You can easily remove this speaker with three 10mm bolts here and the last thing down here is my window motor. Just push on this tab. If you want, use a screwdriver to push that tab down and out. I'm going to use my 10mm socket and ratchet and extension to loosen up these two nuts. You can see our window is down a little bit. Once those are loose, you can just take your window and push it up into place. Just use some blue painter's tape to make sure the window stays up. Remove these two lower nuts. Now just loosen these two upper ones a couple of turns. There's a bolt right here that holds the window motor, way down in the corner. We'll just speed this up a little bit as I take that lower bolt out. The regulator can go out, up and your regulator comes out.

Here's your new regulator from 1A Auto; you see it's all the same as the old one. Feed it in the exact same way, here. Make sure you get your wires on the correct side down here. Also make sure the regulator is on the inside of the window. The bolts they put on are a little too big to go through those slots. What I'm doing here is the upper bolts you can leave in the regulator and you just hang them up in the doors, they go through larger holes and then slide down into slots. The bolts that came in the regulator, the heads were just a little too big to fit through the larger part of the hole so I'm just threading them out and putting them into place and threading them back in. Fast forward here as I start that lower nut on, then I align the other rail, get it in and start that nut. Continuing to move quickly here, I start the bolt that's in the lower corner of the window motor and then I take my ratchet and socket and extension and tighten all those five bolts up. You tighten them up firm but not extremely tight. I've got my key on. I'm going to plug my window motor back in and, now, I'm going to run my regulator up. Loosen up these nuts here. Remove my tape. Bring my window down, make sure it goes into the clamps here. Get a little bit of mild hand soap and grease the window a little bit. Get some down in these clamps. Move the window down, and make sure it's going into the clamps where we want it to. Push it down into the clamps. You may find that you want to loosen them up a little bit more. There will be marks on the windows and you just want to line them up in the same place and use your ratchet and extension and socket and tighten those clamps up. Again these don't have to be extremely tight but you want them nice and firm. They'll grip the windows. I still have my key on so I can test the window, bring it down and bring it back up. We'll fast forward again here. I just tighten those clamps up a couple of turns, disconnect my switch and then start putting my plastic shield on.

When you're putting this all back together, make sure this harness goes through this upper hole and make sure you put your lock rod through this lower hole here. Now in the interest of keeping this somewhat manageable as far as length, I'm going to fast forward through putting the door panel back on. If you want to see this in regular speed, just check out our other videos for the Sierra and Silverado crew cab rear door panel install and replace. Once you get the door panel back on, it is a pretty easy process. You put it back on, slide it down, insert a couple of bolts, put on the trim panels and you should be all set
