  1. Remove the door trim assembly (Refer to DOOR TRIM ).
  2. Remove the waterproof film (Refer to WINDOW GLASS RUNCHANNEL AND DOOR OPENING WEATHERSTRIP  ).
    CAUTION: Insert a cushion or similar object to prevent damage to the glass if it should fall.
  3. Remove the window regulator assembly from the door window glass, and then raise and lower the door window glass by hand to check the operation force.
  4. If the door window glass does not move up and down smoothly, check or repair the following points:
    • Check the installation condition of the runchannel.
    • Repair any twisting in the door sash.
    • Check the installation condition of the lower sash.
      NOTE: To align the lower sash, loosen the lower sash mounting bolts, and move the lower sash along the oblong mounting holes.
