Final Approach
Anyone familiar with power windows on a 95 Saturn SL2 Sedan? My son's home from college so I get the maintenance list items - this time it's "rear driver's side window slides up and down by hand, motor runs but window doesn't react".
I pulled the panel (exterior skin for easiest access on the Saturn) and this unit has a black plastic "track" that slides inside a metal track from motor to window regulator, that is no longer connected to the regulator or "slider" as I found defined on saturnfans.com (my resource for annual work on his car).
Here's a couple of pictures of the plastic track inside the metal track at the slider - what I don't see is how the actuator track attaches to the regulator, and have not yet found a detailed enough parts diagram to show what's broken and/or missing.
Here's a pic of the slider and track behind it - what am I missing?
If I can't find the missing/broken part - probably going to resort to a "field fix" to attach the slider to the track? (safely wire, skinny hose clamp, duct tape and bailing wire?)
Let's see if this pic is any better ...
Here's an ebay link to the whole assembly - so far the best pic I can but not enough detail to see the attachment.
