• Q: How to replace the front door window regulator on 2005 Chevrolet Equinox?

  A: The first step to replace the front door Window Regulator requires the removal of the front door outside handle. Start by removing the front door window run channel assembly together with the front door lower speaker. The first step involves disconnecting both the mirror electrical connector along with the 4 electrical connector rosebuds which are divided into two sections (one group located at the mirror and another under the speaker). Start by loosening the 2 bolts at the back of the module before taking out the remaining 4 module bolts and the 3 latch bolts which fasten the door shut face. The door jamb requires disconnecting its harness before removing the Window Regulator module from the door assembly. To install the Window Regulator module users must first attach the door harness to the jamb and then place it into the door frame before concluding with the reconnecting of the door harness. Secure the 3 latch bolts on the door shut face at 10 n.m (89 lb in) tension while setting the 4 module bolts at 8 n.m (71 lb in). Reinstall the 4 electrical connector rosebuds together with the mirror electrical connector. Start the installation by attaching the front door lower speaker followed by the front door window run channel assembly and ending with the front door outside handle reinstallation.
