Passenger Window Regulator

[chipster]

I recently purchased a butterfly clip to repair my passenger window. We installed the slider onto the rail and attached one end (top) of the cable to the regulator slider. We are having a problem attaching the other end of the cable (bottom) from the motor through the wheel to the slider. If we attach it to the slider first, we can't stretch the cable around the pully at bottom. Does anyone know if there is a trick to this?

Chipster,
Have you had a look at the following for tips?
This one says:

... to get the cable tension, cables back into the correct position was a piece of cake.....the tension you can't adjust; there are two springs at either end of the rail which give the cable tension. Winding the cables around the spool is also easy; position the slider centrally and wind equal cable from the outside of the spool for each end of the cable. There is really only one position......if you are one complete turn out, the cable is either massively overtight or slack. You can check you've got it right by plugging it in before you re-install it.

Or try this thread.
Or maybe this thread.

Or this one from Enright a few years ago.

Good luck,
John

If I have this correct, as I did this some time ago:
If you push the end with the spring in the cable should just slide over the pulley
