1957 window adjustment/ motor runs in one direction

[farmerdick]

Have 2 issues i am dealing with. original problem was window went up and down very slow. Took everything apart and found out it was the front channel was bent. Replaced front channel and new channel window guide. New rollers and motor.

Cleaned and relubed regulator. So now the window only goes up and not down(issue #1). When the window does go up the window wants to kick out of front channel (issue #2) as it gets to the half way point in channel. I have adjusted the window a dozen times if not more.

I am not sure what needs to be adjusted to keep the window in the channel all the way up. The window is aligned nice side to side. If i put just a little pressure on back edge of glass it goes up perfect. All the rollers are in the correct guides. Just do not know what needs to be done.

As far as the up and not down situation i can not figure that out. Even bought a new switch along with the new motor. I am getting power thru the switch to the motor. Any help would be much appreciated.

The kicking out of the window at the upper end seems to be caused by an adjustment in the window stops. Make sure that the stops are not allowing the window to lift past it's proper ending.
