Another power window problem - help pls
 

I tried the search but didn't find anything similar...

My passenger side window will not slide down. I opened the door panel, motor & mechanism is working 100% but the glass separated from the scissor mechanism.

If I lower the window, the scissor mechanism will lower to the bottom of the door, window stays up & closed. Manually force the window down, slide it back into the channel. Close the window by pushing the switch up. Window closes. When I try to open again, same thing - it separates.

What can I adjust to fix this? :confused: It seems that the window is misaligned in the door frame? How does the "bottom channel" grabs onto the window? Is it strictly by gravity (so when the mechanism falls, so does the window)?

thanks!

I sometimes get this problem. I am wondering if it is the seals that are sticking so hard to it, it prevents it from sliding down. Never gets stuck or goes slow going up. It also seems that moisture plays a part too, when the windows are wet they don't stick. I tried waxing the windows to kind of lubricating them. Not sure if it is really the problem but they seem to go down every time.
Not sure if your situation is as simple.

I've seen this problem before... on my car as well. Inside the horizontal keeper that the glass sits in, there's a long rubber channel that tends to dry out over time. Sometimes the rubber channel leaves rail and stays with the window... and sometimes it stays in the rail and the window leaves. To fix it, you can open up the door panel and have a closer look at the rubber channel. If it's torn up, then I'd replace. If it looks okay but just let go... then pull it out, clean up the rail and the channel, and then re-glue the rubber back into the channel... then maybe drop a little between the glass and the channel to hold things together. If memory serves, the orginal rubber channel held the glass only by the angle and friction/stickyness of the rubber.
