I just got a 240SX 2 days ago. Yesterday I open the door and the window just fell down! I checked it out and the cables (Who the F&*@ uses a cable!<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'> came off it's pully and jammed in the gear mechanism. Well I just got the whole assembly out of the car, but I had to clip the cables that were stuck. Anyone know how to fix the cables or do I need a new thing?

I went to Home Depot and bought some thin airline cable just like the stuff that was used in the window. It was like .15 a foot (you need about 7feet), so it is really cheap stuff. Takes a bit to string it all the way back through and make sure it is all tight, but once you get it in, it will work perfectly. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

Good luck.

How did you get it back in the plastic sprocket thingy? It looks like I need to get a whole new regulator since you cannot open up the gears to put in more wire.
