Warning Be careful not to smash fingers in the window gears, and wear rubber gloves and safety goggles for protection when disassembling and repairing a car window. Step 1: Replace blown fuse If more than one window is on the fritz, try replacing the fuse first. Otherwise, leave the fuse disconnected for safety while you inspect the window's inner workings. Tip If you hear the motor trying to work when you press the up or down window controls, it's probably not a blown fuse. Step 2: Remove door panels Use a panel removal tool to pry off the panels on the inside of the car door and pull back the coverings to gain access to the mechanics inside. Use a screwdriver to remove any screws needed to get the coverings off. Tip Make a note of where to put the screws back later. Step 3: Check for jam Look at the gears inside to see if a jammed cable may be keeping your window off track so that it is stuck down or up. If so, set it back on track. Tip Consult electrical wiring diagrams for your car in the manual to learn how the window functions. Step 4: Follow the wiring Follow the wiring to search for any corroded connectors or switches that may be keeping your window's motor from working, and replace any bad ones. Tip Use a voltmeter to test the voltage at each point along the wiring. Step 5: Fix bad gaskets Replace or repair the seal on any loose or faulty gaskets if the window won't roll up or sticks in some places. Step 6: Consider a new motor If your window needs a new motor, decide whether you can replace it yourself, which will depend on your mechanical experience, available tools, and the type of car. Step 7: Reassemble Reassemble the window and door parts, using contact cement to hold the plastic insulating layer in place if necessary. Enjoy your working windows! Did You Know? Windshields were first added to vehicles in 1904. If the windshield became dirty or obstructed the view of the driver, it could be split in two, allowing the debris to fall off the top half of the glass.

Warning Working with jacks and electrical motors can be dangerous. To avoid injury, use caution and make sure the vehicle is stable before you work on it. Step 1: Rule out other causes Rule out other possible causes of the problem first, such as a faulty battery, gears, or the key connection. Tip If you hear the starter motor working well when you turn the key, the problem probably lies elsewhere. But a click, grind, silence, or weak sound may indicate a faulty starter. Step 2: Get to the starter Locate the starter either under the hood or from underneath. If you need to jack up the car to get to it, secure the car high up enough to slide under it and work. Step 3: Tap it Gently tap the starter cylinder with a wrench and test the ignition system to see if that solves the problem. Step 4: Label wires Label both sides of the wires connecting to the starter with masking tape, so you can put it back together properly later. Tip Consult the detailed repair manual for your car for tips on getting to and removing the starter. Step 5: Remove starter Remove the starter motor by unhooking the cables that connect to the battery and removing the bolts from the top and bottom with a ratchet and wrench set. Tip Most auto parts stores can test the starter at little or no cost to confirm your diagnosis. Step 6: Inspect the starter Inspect the starter for obvious damage to help determine whether the problem is in the motor or with the piece that is supposed to engage the flywheel. Step 7: Clean and reattach Fix any apparent problems, such as a jam or loose cable; then reattach the starter. If it still does not work, you probably need to buy a new one to replace it with. Either way, your vehicle will thank you. Did You Know? The first electrical starter system for cars was invented in 1911 by Charles Kettering.

Emphasizing high-quality instructional videos, Howcast brings you experts who provide accurate information in easy-to-follow tutorials on everything from makeup, hairstyling, nail art design, and soccer to parkour, skateboarding, dancing, kissing, and much, much more. Step 1: Check for sound Check whether the horn makes any sound. If it does, the electrical circuitry is still working. Tip Most vehicles have two horns, which sound at the same time. They are usually mounted to the radiator core support or behind the vehicle's grill. Step 2: Check horn Unbolt, clean any corrosion, and reinstall the horn if it does not sound. If the horn still does not work, run a jumper wire to it from the battery. If it still does not work, replace it. Step 3: Check fuse Check the fuse that controls the two horns if there is no sound from either one. If the fuse is burned out, replace it. Try the horn again. Tip Check your car owner's manual for the location and type of fuse. Step 4: Check horn button Check whether there is any debris obstructing the horn button on your steering wheel that may be preventing the horn from sounding. Step 5: Check wiring Check -- or have a mechanic check -- the wiring attached to the horn, if all else fails. If it is damaged, repair or replace it. Now you can make some noise. Did You Know? Before 1910, bulb horns were widely used on automobiles.

Step 1: Get an oil change and tune up Get an oil change and tune up, and check your air filter. Make sure there are no fluid leaks, dashboard warning lights on, or safety issues. Step 2: Inflate tires Make sure your tires are properly inflated, in good condition, and are the original size for your vehicle. If you installed the wrong size tires, it may affect the test equipment or not allow the test to be performed at all. Step 3: Have a gas cap Have a proper gas cap on your car. A vehicle without one automatically fails the test. Step 4: Take it for a drive If you only drive the car rarely, take it for a 30-minute or longer ride the week of the test, preferably on the highway. Step 5: Fill it with premium Fill up your tank with premium gas, which is cleaner and better for the environment. Tip Consider adding fuel additives to the gas tank, which clean carbon deposits in your engine and lower emission levels. Step 6: Drive on test day On test day, drive your car at least 30 minutes right before the test so it will reach optimal operating temperature. Tip Try to get the test within 15 minutes of your arrival, so the car is still warmed up. Step 7: Bring your paperwork Bring your DMV paperwork with you to the testing facility so they can scan the bar code it contains. If not, you may pay extra for them to look up the vehicle identification number. Did You Know? The Clean Air Act of 1970 gave the Environmental Protection Agency authority to regulate motor vehicle pollution.





How to Diagnose Car Battery and Starter Problems

Step 1: Turn on your ignition Turn on your ignition if your car engine won't turn over. Listen carefully to any sound produced. Step 2: Consider a dead battery Consider the possibility of a dead battery. If trying to start the engine only produces a "click" sound, this may be the case. If you left your car lights on the night before, the battery could have gone dead, and you'll need to have the battery jump-started. If the battery is very old you may have to get a new one. Tip Car batteries typically only last 3 to 5 years. Step 3: Consider a possible alternator problem Consider a possible alternator problem if turning on the ignition produces a whining sound, but you have a newer battery. If the alternator is bad, it will not charge the battery when you drive the car. You can use jumper cables and another battery to start the car, but the same problem will occur again. Have the alternator checked and replaced if necessary. Step 4: Consider a possible starter problem Consider a possible starter problem. If you hear a click when you turn on the ignition and the problem is not due to your battery, the starter's solenoid may have a weak spot inside. If so, the starter will not be able to produce enough current to start your engine, and you will have to have it replaced. Step 5: Visit a mechanic Visit a mechanic if you're having trouble determining the sound your car is making. It's always better to be safe than sorry! Did You Know? The Oxford Electric Bell, a battery-powered bell at the University of Oxford in England, has been ringing almost continuously since 1840.

Part 11: Power Windows Installation - My 76 Mazda RX-5 Cosmo Restoration
I now present episode 11 of my '76 Mazda RX-5 Cosmo restoration. This episode deals with the task of installing the AutoLoc PW4650 universal power window kit. This kit includes motorized actuators which rotate the existing manual window cranks, driving the manual regulator and thus converting it to power without the need to fit an entirely new window regulator. Additionally it includes all wiring and switches (not installed yet), and mounting brackets. As it is a universal kit, it is universally wrong for every application and must be customized to fit. The installation was straightforward though time consuming. I have to admit, this episode is a monstrosity and quite a bit longer than normal. But for good reason, because I didn't want to do a "To be continued" as the next episode will be quite special. Included in this part: custom fitting AutoLoc universal power window actuators, making cutting channels into the inner door for space, patching and finishing off the channels with welding and sheet metal, cutting sheet metal from templates, media blasting before painting, making brackets for actuators, a surprise at the end.
