    94 Corolla power window assembly is broken

    A friend of mine has a 94 Corolla and the passenger side window sort of
    slides down into the door itself.

    She took the car to the dealer, who said that it would cost $440 to fix
    the power window assembly. That's a lot of money to invest in the car at
    this point.

    She's wondering if there is some way that we can disassemble the door
    and sort of jam the window so that it's up all the time. (She doesn't
    care if the window doesn't work.) Has anyone done anything like this?

    If you have any information that might help us, please pass it along.

    Many thanks.

    I had this problem on a Volvo in the shop but most power window assembly
    are the same. Remove the interior door panel itself and I am not sure how
    well Toyota has things covered up but normally there will be several access
    hole at least. If you can clamp a vise grip on the track right below the
    window while you hold it in the full up position; pull the vise grip
    perpendicular and away from the track that will stop it from moving up and
    down.
    you also could try pushing a wooden wedge up between the frame and the
    base of the window and put a small sheet screw through the metal you wedge
    the windows against to hold the wedge in place.

    Sounds like the window regulator has failed, these are cable operated
    and jamb up. Is it power? If so, you can order a regulator wihtout a new
    motor for much less $$$
