540 window wont lower

Recommended Posts

Hey guys,The right rear window on my 540 wont lower.

I've had the door card off-motor works fine in both directions,the pull cable is intact & seems to be doing what it should.

Is there a pulley or similar on the window arm(up where you cant see) that could be disconnected or stuffed.

Any help would be much appreciated.I hate stuff that doesnt work.At least its stuck up!

In the E34 Mark you fix little niggles like this by holding the window button down and giving the inside of the door a bang with your fist :)

The regulator (pulley) inside the door will be damaged. Replace it. With a new one

they deteriorate due to age - plastic gets brittle - so don't fit a 2nd hand "old" one as you don't know how long it will last. Fit a new one.
