How to easily change window regulators on a VAZ 2110?

An article with step-by-step photos and video instructions on how to independently replace the window regulator on the front doors of VAZ 2110, 2111, 2112 cars.

Each window regulator is stamped with the vehicle model number and part number. The last two digits indicate: 10 – right door; 11 – left door.

Withdrawal procedure

1. To access the window regulator, remove the door trim.
2. Special bolts are used to secure the glass frame. Lower the glass so that the mounting bolts are accessible through the top hole of the door. You need to unscrew the 2 bolts securing the glass frame to the window lifter slider.
3. Using your hands, lift the glass all the way up and jam it in the upper position.

At the same time, lower the window lifter slider down until it stops.
5. On the front door, you need to unscrew the 4 nuts securing the guide and the 3 nuts securing the window lift mechanism itself.

6. On the rear door, you need to unscrew the 2 nuts securing the guide and 3 nuts securing the window lift mechanism.

7. The window regulator is removed through the technological hole in the door.

DIY repair

Sometimes it turns out that it is not possible to purchase a new device, if the cable gets tangled, or the electric motor fails, then there is always the opportunity to repair it all with your own hands. Only obvious mechanical fracture of any part cannot be repaired.

If the electric motor fails, most likely your brushes or windings are simply clogged; just remove the motor, disassemble it and clean it carefully with an alcohol-soaked cloth or gasoline; you can buy special products (enough for more than one time). It is advisable to lubricate all mechanisms during disassembly.

When the cable flies off the mechanism, you should remove the entire mechanism, again remove the electric motor or unwind the cable itself if you have a mechanical one, carefully pull the cable into its place (grooves) and install it back.

Often the fault is not in the window regulator itself; by studying the diagram below you will understand which wires go where, by calling them you can find the true cause.

I would like to add that repairs, as a rule, do not help for long; if it happens that your window regulator has failed, it is better to replace it, because all the parts have their wear and tear and are unlikely to serve you for a long time, but there are exceptions.

Video on replacing the window regulator:

Replacement of the electric window motor for VAZ 2110 in the front left door. Unfortunately, the “Murzilka” from “Behind the Wheel” did not specifically talk about replacing the electric motor. The procedure for removing the door pocket, radio speaker and upholstery is most likely familiar to everyone. For me, the question was what to buy from which manufacturer and how to change it. As a result, I bought a left ESP motor for the LEFT front door, very similar to the one that came from the factory, made in Kaluga. However, when I removed the old one, I saw that the RIGHT motor was installed at the factory. But since they are interchangeable - you can put them on either side - you won’t miss there. And to remove the motor, you DO NOT need to take out the glass, just lift it to the top, and then climb with your hands and still be a little “GYNECOLOGIST” ;))

And so, the removal process itself (it was in the dark after 22-00 on May 29, 2007 with a flashlight in the yard): 1) disconnect the power window connector; 2) unscrew the 3 nuts securing the motor with a wrench; 3) on the motor, unscrew the 2 large rubber nuts with your hands - which connect the coil with the cable to the motor, inserting your hands into the holes in the door; 4) remove the motor - mine came out through the lower left hole - where the column is placed. Installation is in the reverse order, the problem arises when I tried to put the reel with cable on the motor by touch in the dark and then get the pin in the rubber nuts into the holes for fastening this reel to the motor. In terms of time - I fiddled around for almost 2 hours in the dark () I really wanted to finish it, because... It’s HOT to drive with the window closed), although now I understand that you can actually do everything there in 30 minutes - if you immediately hit the motor with a coil.

PS. Maybe it will at least be included in a new search.

why is it so difficult? technology: 1) unscrew and remove the door pocket 2) unscrew and remove the door handle 3) unscrew and remove the speaker 4) tear off the trim 5) tape the glass in a raised position to the top frame of the door, so that the tape goes over the top and glue it on the other side glass, 2-3 strips are enough 6) remove the terminal from the ESP motor 7) unscrew the 3 nuts securing the ESP motor, unscrew the 2 nuts of the ESP guide 9) unscrew the 2 bolts from the glass frame 10) remove the ESP from the door 11) repair 12) put everything back together sequence 12a) in the door trim, before putting it on the door, do not forget to replace the caps 14) drink beer

How complicated is everything here! I took it off without removing the tropezia, I have to dig deeper, but I took off nothing anyway. Unscrew it and pull it out of there.

But from this place in more detail, please!

My ECT failed in the right rear door. The voltage is fine, but the motor sucks! I tried to take it apart, but it was cold, so I blocked it! But a thought arose, perhaps somehow we can remove the motor without pulling the entire ESP out of the door. But I still haven’t figured out HOW to remove it and HOW to put it back in place! Share the technology, plzzzz!

A week ago I repaired the window regulator of the right rear door. I was afraid to take it off myself for a very long time. It turned out that everything is very simple. Technology: 1. Remove the casing and disconnect the connector. 2. Unscrew the 2 “10” nuts that secure the motor to the door. 3. Unscrew 2 more “10” nuts that secure the trapezoid to the door. 4. You jam the glass. Although I secured it with tape across the doors. Otherwise it may fall inside the door. 5. Using a “10” head, unscrew the 2 bolts that secure the trapezoid to the glass mount. 6. Remove all the threaded rods from the holes into the door. 7. Through the lower right hole in the door, unfold the entire structure so that the motor comes out first, and then everything else. Flexible cables can be bent. 8. Unscrew the two studs with rubber bands from the trapezoid and disconnect the motor.

Possible malfunctions and ways to eliminate them

Now we suggest that you familiarize yourself with the causes of the main malfunctions that can occur in the operation of a joint venture. If there is a problem, the window regulators will either refuse to work at all, or will function incorrectly or be noisy.

Main causes of problems:

1. Malfunctions in the operation of the electrical circuit, that is, wiring. If the wiring is damaged, the control motor of the joint venture will no longer receive a signal about the need to raise and lower, and accordingly, the operation of the joint venture will be impossible. The wiring may be damaged, in some cases the reason lies in insulation failure or oxidation of contacts. Damaged sections of the electrical circuit must be replaced, oxidized contacts must be cleaned or replaced.
2. Inoperability of the gear motor. Electric motor failure usually occurs after several years of intensive use. If the unit fails, normal operation of the joint venture will be impossible, the drive must be repaired or replaced, here the specific nature of the breakdown must be taken into account.
3. Damage to the control module with keys. If all the power windows do not work at once, then most likely the reason lies in the inoperability of the control unit. Perhaps the contact with the car's electrical network has been broken or the board itself has failed. The board itself must be replaced. If only one or more lifts do not function, then the reason may lie in poor contact of the control button with the network. Again, you need to get rid of the oxidation and reconnect the button.
4. Mechanical wear of the gear. This problem is usually caused by long-term and intensive use of the joint venture; the gear teeth can be damaged as a result of wear. Repair is impractical; the gear must be replaced.
5. The fuse responsible for the operation of the joint venture has blown. The fuse element may be located in the mounting block with all other fuses and relays. But if you installed the joint venture yourself, then the fuse may be located next to the battery. A failed device must be replaced (the author of the video is the V Village Life channel).

Photo report on the removal and installation of the VAZ 2110 electric window

So, before you do anything, you will first need to remove the front door trim. Then, lowering the glass to the required height (so that the bolts securing it to the rail become accessible), unscrew everything with a 10mm head, as shown in the photo:

And the glass can be raised as high as possible so that it does not create problems when dismantling the window regulator . After this, unscrew all the nuts securing the VAZ 2110 electric window, which are shown in the photographs below:

Enjoy watching everyone, I hope my video helped someone with their choice or technical issues) Spare parts.

Kinds

Window lifters are devices that serve to move glass on windows and hold it in a given position. Today, the VAZ 2110 is available with quite a variety of window lifts, which differ not only in manufacturer, but also in purpose.

If we take into account the purpose, then devices can be divided into four types:

• For front doors;
• For rear doors;
• For left doors;
• For the right.

It is noteworthy that their design may be different, but they have quite a lot of common nuances.

Any of the listed window regulators includes several main components.

The design of any window regulator includes two main components - the drive and the lifting mechanism.

Drives

As in many other cars, in the case of the VAZ 2110 there are two types of drives.

1. Electric. A rather complex set of elements, which consists of a drive drum or gear, as well as an electric motor with a worm gearbox built into it. This design allows you to raise and lower the glass at the touch of a button.
2. Mechanical. The most simplified design, which includes several parts, gears and handles. To raise the glass in a VAZ 2110 using a power window lifter, you need to turn the handle clockwise. The drive roller takes on the required physical effort, so lifting is not difficult.

Lifting mechanisms

As for lifting mechanisms, there are several of them. For the VAZ 2110, various options are available.

Rack and pinion mechanisms

Electric glass lift

Rack and cable mechanisms are offered complete with electric and mechanical drives, while lever mechanisms are available only with an electric motor.

Brief summary of the work done

Replacing a VAZ-2110 window regulator is completed in half an hour, and is classified as simple car mechanic work, which can be done independently.

Therefore, it is better to spend some time in the garage than to spend a considerable amount of money at a car repair shop. Moreover, every time you overcome difficulties and do new work, you feel like a real man. And it's worth a little effort.

When replacing a window regulator, please note that the model number 2110 and the seven-digit part number must be stamped on the window regulator. The last two digits of the part number indicate: 10 – right, 11 – left.
