Hyundai Repair: regulator cable, window regulator


Question
I took the door panel off one door where the window works and one window where the window doesn't work.  The one that doesn't work, the regulator cable is hangning.  I routed it up to the top and it was off at the top so I hooked it back in there, but i'm not sure how to route it back down and hook it up so it will stay taught.  It's just hanging.  How can I do that.

Answer
Hi, Erin.  You're not likely to be able to get the cable reinstalled properly.  Typically, it comes off because the plastic breaks at the top where the cable loops around, and then the cable gets tangled in the regulator and subsequently damaged.  You'll need to replace the entire window regulator.
