Repair of Window Regulator Defects
lf the windows are difficult to wind up and
down (the
maximum torque applied on the
spindle of the window regulator with the glass
installed in the doors exceeds 2.5 Nm) (1.77
tt
lbs), it is recommended that the following steps
are taken as regards both the front
and rear doors:
1. Disconnect the regulator driving plate
from
the window glass
channel. Push the glass
upward
and try the relieved regulator by turning the
regulator crank. lf the regulator does not work
smoothly (jamming,
rattling) or if
a torque higher
than O.7 Nm/(O.495 ft lbs) in front and 1.1
Nm/(0.78 ft lbs) in the rear is required for its
operation, replace the whole regulator with a new
one working satisfactorily.
2. Adjust the centre pillar position
in the door
using the jig
as per
drawing No. A1-1 5417-S.
Loosen the top screw of the centre pillar
and
retighten it while pressing
the centre pillar
against the window glass
wound up to its upper-
most position.
Loosen the bottom screw of the
centre pillar
and retighten it while pressing
the
centre pillar
against the
window glass. 5417

-l! L
3. When bolting together the regulator driving
plate with the window glass
channel make sure
that the holes in these two parts
coincide along
the whole length of the channel. lf it is not so,
move the
channel into a satisfactory position.
4. lf the regulator is
not lubricated, lubricate the
regulator cable in the
tubing with grease
and
apply oil to the regulator
crank spindle.
To Remove ond Reinstoll Reor Door Fixed

Agoin remove first the door trimming. The
gloss is only inserted
into the door frome ond
supported by o bolted-down holder with o rub-
ber pocking piece.
The gloss
con be moved in

14.7 TRIMMING UPHOLSTERY AND WEATHERSTRIPS
Ponel-type Trimming
This type of trimming is used for
the doors -
see Chopter 14.5, Fig.14.511- ond for
the front

Ponel-type trimming
fostened by clips (flexible
spocing pins)
covers

anchoring bolts
on the size 7/16-20 UNF-2A'
In f ront, the anchoring threads

accessible being provided
on the door posts
(remove only one of the pair
of pins
covering the
thread), on sills
below the posts,
and on
the sides
of the'floor tunnel
behind the front seats'
Anchoring points
for rear seat belts are shown
in the illustation. For the seat
belt of the person
sitting in the
middle, the threads are under the
seat cushions and rather removed from each other
(A3). For the seat belts of persons
occupying the
butside places
the threads are also under the
cushions, nearer to the centre (A2),
in the body
sides close to the cusions (82),
and in window
pillars (C2). These latter threads can be found by
touch in the point
of intersection of the plane
passing about 165 mm
above the
rear window
parcel tray and in parallel
with the door frame at a
distance of about 85 mm. To gain
access to
them,
it is necessary to cut through the trimming.
We must stress that for the fitting of points A2
and A3, the bolts should not protrude
beyond the Fig.M.11l2
