I had to replace the driver's side master switch, the passenger side switch and the passenger side power window regulator on my Honda. :icon14:
The window quit going up and down, so I checked both switches and they showed good. So I ordered a regulator. I had the Dorman number, so I looked on eBay. :icon23: Well, that didn't go as planned. The regulator they sent was for a coupe, not a sedan, so the window lacked about 1/4" of closing. My first clue should have been that the slots for the glass didn't line up with the window glass. I figured 'Chinese can't read English and they mis-cut the slots. Nope. Totally the wrong part, it even said 'Coupe' on the box. :mad: It's supposed to rain in the next few days, so I emailed the seller, told him the problem and said I was going to the auto parts store to get the right part. I told him that his listing was either incorrect or someone shipped me the wrong part. :shakes head:
Turns out the old master switch was a junkyard part and blew the 20A fuse for the window. It's a good thing I replaced both switches...:ugh2: Oh well, since the car has 210K on the clock, a new passenger side regulator was probably due. Next up, I have to replace 3 of the 4 power door lock actuators, do front & rear struts, and replace the fuel pump module. It still pumps fuel, but the gas gauge is a bit wonky, the low fuel light comes on at just under a half tank. :icon17: It's part of the module, so I'll pull the back seat and drop a new one it. Sure beats having to drop a gas tank from the bottom..... :rofl2:
