• Q: How to replace the front door window regulator on 2004 Chevrolet Corvette?

  A: The procedure for front door Window Regulator replacement starts by removing door trim panel together with water deflector and radio speaker assembly through disconnecting electrical/audio connector and unscrewing speaker retaining screws. Move the plugs out of the access holes from the window clamp sight and the door window. Rephrase the front door Window Regulator replacement procedure by first disconnecting the regulator motor electrical connector then removing the front plug under the door's bottom part followed by careful marking of the regulator placement for reinstallation. Remove the nuts from regulator lower channel studs together with regulator motor studs and upper regulator channel studs before folding the regulator for removal through the door inner opening. Adjust the regulator jack screws to fit the previous regulator configuration unless you are performing a replacement then fold the regulator and insert it through the door opening while orienting the motor toward the front. Insert the motor studs through the door inner panel before installing the nuts on them to a torque of 10 n.m (89 lb in). Secure the regulator channel studs by passing them through the door holes and tighten all nuts according to this sequence: upper forward and lower forward followed by upper rearward and lower rearward to 10 n.m (89 lb in). After attaching the regulator rose bud clip to its position on the door and hooking the electrical connector to the motor you must pull the regulator to its uppermost extent before reconnecting the window switch. You should put back the window while readjusting it until it matches the door opening then put back the plugs in the window clamp sight access holes. Enplace and tighten the top speaker assembly screw initially before applyingroups of screws using a criss-cross pattern to 3 n.m (27 lb in) torque. Complete the connection of electric audio wiring before you re-install the water defender and door outer panel. The process concludes by verifying window alignment and making corrections before inserting the access plugs into the door bottom.
