Window regulator for a manual window??

Question

I have a 2-door '93 Honda Civic DX, and my window on the passenger's side is kaput.

People keep telling me that I just need a new window regulator, but whenever I go look, they have motors on them that I don't need....

My car isn't fully automated...no power windows, or power locks.....

Does anyone know where to go to find a window regulator specifically for a non-electric window???

Answer 1

go the the junk yard or just buy it from the honda dealer if you don't know what your doing.

Answer 2

There is no regulator on manual windows.  Just some crankgears.  Pull your door panel and look at how it operates - it is a very simple mechanism, you should have no issue with figuring out exactly why it is inop especially with your drivers side being the "working" version.

Answer 3

have you tried the Honda dealership?  they should still be available.

as for salvage yards, the DX was a very small percentage of the production.  you'd be very lucky if you ever found one in a junk yard.

the manual regulators were such a small percent of the production that you will almost certainly have to buy the factory regulator

hope that helps
