Excellent production. I earned my living for 25 years as a Ford drive-ability tech, so I installed more of these than I ever wanted to. Left the trade in '97 and at 70 years old now there are some holes in my memory and of course lots of things have changed over the years. Your video took an hour off my R&R time and so grateful for that. Good job!

I just completed 2 replacements in my 2007 expedition... And successfully thanks to you. Saved me a bunch of $. Can't thank you enough! Awesome video!

As a 32 year college teacher, I have to chuckle at what a natural teacher you are. About half or more of the peers I taught with could profit by watching you. Not that they would ever be as good, because they lacked the natural talent to begin with. Clear, complete explanation that flowed nicely. Well done for sure. Second time I have watched this. Ahh?---- Second regulator i have replaced! Thanks,

This is by far one of the best tutorial how to videos I have seen. I successfully installed a new regulator in the front driver's side of my 2011 Ford Expedition. Your instructions were perfect-I followed them to the tee and it took me about 2 hours-I purchased the part for $90 and saved $500 versus what the dealers wanted to do this work. Thank you VERY MUCH !

This video is fantastic. Just changed my first ever window regulator for my drivers side 2010 ford expedition following this video, and its spot on. Side note to anyone thats going to purchase the motor for your regulator, is to be sure you get the right one. For example, my window regulator came with a motor that DID NOT support auto up/down so my connections from the car did not fit. However, thankfully my regulator was busted and not the motor, so I was able to swap the motor with the new regulator and everything works perfect. Thanks again for this video!

This video is the best. Nothing beats calling for a quote and finding the perfect DIY video on youtube to save you 300 bucks. Very much appreciated! My one piece of advice is that when putting the door handle back on, make sure the spring is in the proper position. I did not, but it is possible to fix it without having to take the whole door panel off. Thanks again!

Your video is incredible. Start to finish took about 2 hours. Bought the part online, shipped for $103, beats the pants off of the $450 the dealership wanted to charge me. Your video is crisp, the directions are easy to follow, and I appreciate you taking your time as you go through each of the steps.

This is THE BEST instructional video I’ve ever seen !!! No sales pitch, no self-indulging bloviating, just detailed instruction that ANYBODY, and I mean ANYBODY, can follow (provided you have the basic tools needed). Took me about 1.5 hrs to complete the job, and that’s only because I would rewind the video when there was any part I didn’t understand the first time I saw it. Great job guys !!! Keep up the great work !!!

Thanks Brother! You’re one awesome dude for posting this. I replaced the driver side regulator today on my 2011 Expedition and spent about 3 hours doing it, which is not bad at all. I purchased the genuine part at the dealership for $200 but I saved some dough on the labor thanks to you!

My father requested I come back to this video and leave a comment to thank you for the outstanding production & pacing of this content, we were able to completely fix my window in a few hours!

36 thumbs down? The majority of them are probably from his KZfaq competition. FordTechMalako you are a phenomenal teacher. Thank you for your diligence. God bless.

I can't imagine why this video got 15 thumbs down unless it was from mechanics who are charging 2-3 hours labor for this job that took me, a shade tree mechanic, an hour to do. Great video! Excellent explanation. Camera work was right on. Thank you for saving me some cash at the shop.

One of the best, if not THE best tutorial video I've ever seen. I had removed the door panel to look at the issue before I ordered the regulator, and broken the plastic tab by the tweeter that holds the plastic in place. Every single step in this video is filmed clearly, you speak clearly... Made this job a literal breeze. Keep up the good work. Will be looking through your channel for any work I do from now on.

My regulator went out, watched this video, and didn't even bother calling around for prices - got a new regulator off Amazon for $60, and an hour and a half of working on it has my window working again! Thanks for the tutorial!

PMW This video on fixing 07 expedition window regulator is just fantastic! The guy went exactly... step by step. No left out nor extra talk, plain, easy to follow and pictures of each part to remove or replace. Saved over $400 easily. It took much less time than expected due to instructions. If you follow along you can do the repair too. I'm no serious car guy but do like doing my own work if possible. Watch this video a couple times and you CAN do the repair. Took me 2 hours.

I successfully changed out the front driver's side regulator on my 2010 Expedition while watching your video. It was very clear and detailed. It only took me about 1.5 hours. Thank you so much for your content!

Thank You! Great video! Mine broke when I was visiting my Mom with my family. 6 hours from home, leaving the next day and here I am with my window stuck down inside the door. Thanks to your video I was able to disassemble the door, prop the window closed with a "frame" made from some 100 year old hardwood flooring my Mom had in the attic of her garage (did you know the groove in tongue-and-groove flooring fits the window glass exactly?) and make the drive home with no worries. Fed Ex just dropped off the new regulator so I'm off to the garage to apply the permanent solution. Thanks again!

Great Video. Exceptional step by step instructions for a first timer in the regulator world....Took me 35 minutes and $76. Found a new Ford Original part on Ebay with a make an offer... asking 125, I offered 75 plus $1 shipping. You The Man!

Awesome walkthrough guide! With the right tools it took me 2 hours to do both front door regulators and a motor on an 07 Expedition. I estimate your video cut the job time in half! Thanks for posting this!

Outstanding video!!! The only one I needed to watch to get the job done on my wife's '07 Expedition.

Hey Brian. You are a life saver ! Great video. My 07 Expedition dropped a passenger window yesterday afternoon just hours before a major storm hit my area. (No longer have access to a garage.) Watching your video allowed me to remove a broken regulator assembly to gain access and grab the fallen window and tape it up before the rain swamped us. Late model vehicles sometimes scare me with the latest technology which is why I used to fancy my older toys like my 68' Mustang, 65' F250 and 72' F100 and my favorite, 59' F100. Toys closer to my age. They are easy like me. Thanks again for the great video. Very well done.

Absolutely FANTASTIC video man!!! First time I’ve ever changed out the window regulator and you literally walked me through step by step. Start to finish, I finished the job in 45 minutes. Can’t thank you enough for the help!!

Thank you so much for a great tutorial. I followed your video step by step and got done in about an hour. I've had no previous experience with this kind of thing. About a third of my time was spent running back in the house to the computer to see the next step. Great video!

I just did my driver side this morning. We had the passenger side done last year, but damn, it was expensive. I thought I'd tackle this one myself. Thanks to your video, it was a success. Sort of.... After I had everything back together the inside door handle wasn't working right. After some head scratching and a little cussing, okay, a lot of cussing, my wife found that little tension spring thingy that goes around that pin in the handle at the edge of the flowerbed beside the drive way. The pin fell out while I was taking things apart, and I didn't notice the spring had fallen off too. After partially disassembling the door, putting the spring in, and reassembling it all, again, it all worked perfectly. Thank you. Liked & subscribed !

This tutorial is clear and well laid out. The detail is perfect (not too much, not too little) and there is no editorializing to sit through. I followed it step by step and had no issues. I am not a do-it-yourself car guy so I needed to have each step shown and explained. I have watched a lot of tutorials and this one is exceptionally good. Thank you!

I do a lot of my own repairs and this is easily the most detailed and complete video. Following his step-by-step video with excellent views and tips, if you have any level of mechanical ability with basic tools you can absolutely perform this repair. He even tells you the torque specs (in inch pounds...be very careful here) and the socket/torx sizes. Cannot stress enough to follow his tips....I almost bypassed getting a flashlight and ensuring the window was actually in the clamps. Glad I took the time and followed his advice because it was most definitely not! The clamps come with the screws installed...have to back them out just a bit and it slides easily into place. Great video! Thanks!

I used this video to replace my window regulator this week, saving me hundreds upon hundreds of dollars. Thank you for your assistance.

Thank you thank you! Bought the part from napa, and knocked it out in a couple hours on a Sunday. Saved me a ton of time and money. So thanks again. The step by step detail was amazing!

I really appreciate this video after being handed the job this morning, only to find another tech had taken apart the regulator. Thanks!

Thanks bro. my window is completely down and it cost $600 to fixs it. I have some experience as a mechanic but its been years since I've worked on a car. this really saved me money I didn't have... please make more videos on Ford expeditions if you can

Just swapped mine out. You're video was easy to follow preventing from messing up like i usually do. You're videos have saved me a few hundred dollars so far. Thank you.

I'm not a mechanic but I feel like I can specialize in replacing window regulators/motors on 2008 Ford Expeditions, etc. after watching this video. This is a very, very good video that details each and every step you have to take to r/r a regulator. Saved me several hundred dollars doing it myself. Thanks!!!

two words, thank you! step by step perfect match to my 2010 Ford Expedition Eddie Bauer. similar comment below over 600 bucks to get repaired and I did it for $194 CAD, not only that a learning experience was priceless, any thumbs down and they were working on a the wrong vehicle......laters

Thanks!!! We are always trying to save money where we can. The dealership wanted about $450. My parts cost $120. I am not a mechanic in anyway, shape, or form. Because of how well done your video is I was able to do this myself. Again, thank you!

Just completed this morning 2hrs, from start to finish. Awesome vid. Subscribed for life

Thank you! I have the same SUV, same door, same window issue! I just ordered the part from Amazon and will get working on it by the weekend. You saved me a good $500. Thanks a bunch.

This was perfect. You nailed your closing statement too. My passenger window went 4 months ago and my drivers side just broke last week. I found this video and now I have working windows. If you can turn a screwdriver, you can do this! Thanks for saving me $1,000!!!

Just did the myself today and we save a bundle for the repair cost. Instruction is very accurate and easy to understand. Thank You.

Replaced the passenger side regulator on my 2010 Expy. WOW! I was worried about a big bill from the dealer but this was a walk in the park with your video. Keep it up that was awesome!

I replace my regulator and motor today, I I thought you did an amazing job at explaining how to go about it. Just heed to follow what you say and what was a scary job becomes a very easy one. Thank you so much!

This was one of the best tutorials I've seen. Thank you so much. Saved me a bunch of money, headaches.

So happy to have found this video. Just thinking the window popped off the track, then Find out I had to replace the whole thing sucked. This video helped so much. Thanks again.

Great, helpful video... even greater background music, I think the first two artists were Tenth Avenue North and then United - Oceans. Nice job all around! You've blessed a lot of people and saved them meaningful money.

You sir are a Rockstar!! ***For anyone watching this video , when re-attaching the door handle assembly to the new plastic assembly, be very very careful prying up on that top tab, they break*** ask me how I know..

Thank you for this! I swapped it out on my wife's 2007 expedition and your instructions were spot on.

You are a lifesaver!!!! Boy are you right with if one goes the other isn’t far behind it. We are fixed up because of your expertise.

You got me through, well done. Had to replace the broken window, which was the excuse to finally fix the wimpy auto window action. New regulator hole pattern was a scoshe off the old one but I prevailed - thanks. I feel really smart now.

I am about to replace the passenger regulator on my 08' Navigator. I did the driver side about a year ago with the help of this video. Thanks a million FordTechMakuloco!!

Just completed the drivers side door and the video was spot on, only a few extra wires to disconnect! Thank you for this video! You saved me a lot of money!

I owe you a beer. That video was everything I needed before I started my window project on my 07 Ford Expy drivers window. Easy to follow and you saved me a lot of money. Thank you very much. Now, the passenger side.

awesome video! Thank you so much for posting. This saved me a load of cash at the dealership. I got the regulator off Amazon for 90.00 and free shipping. The video is priceless and spot on! If you follow the example in this video you will not have a problem installing the regulator. Thanks again!!!

You are correct the newer model you show has reliefs in the door panel to remove/install the regulator A LOT easier. My 2008 is a bear to get out and in. I also noticed the amazon link you had is the version without the panel. I ordered the complete regulator, panel, and motor. Here in COVID Oct 2021 with supply chain issues, I had to order two different brands - a seemingly better (more expensive) passenger side one and a cheaper driver side one. That's what was immediately available, I know the logic would be put the better one on the driver side since that gets the most use.

I appreciate you taking time to make these videos. You have saved me a lot of money and trouble while fixing the different Expeditions I've owned over the years. Please keep them coming. Thanks.

Awesome video. Super detailed step by step instructions. Was able to follow along and pause as I took the broken regulator out and reinstalled it without any issues. Saved me about $400 in labor and probably took me 1.5 hours to do start to finish. All the little tips and pointers are super helpful. Thank you providing this great resource!!!! 👍👍👍👍👍

Thank you BRO! first time. 90 minutes. honestly, I quit watching around 13 minutes but you totally walked me through the hard stuff. My window was stuck DOWN. I had to cut the cables and take the old one out in pcs. Thanks again!

Thank you so much for this video and the link to the part. It took me about 2 hours for the whole job including my coffee break. The one thing I would tell people is to make sure the glass seats all the way down into the rubber holder (on both sides) on the regulator before you tighten the clamps down. It’s easy to believe it’s all the way in when it’s not. This is a straight forward job anyone can do you just have to take your time and think it through.

Thank you. Im 60 and if my dad was sble just go to utube like this it would have saved money. Heck. You just saved me a fortune.

At 7:19, Brian points out how delicate that top retainer of the door handle is. The problem I found in ordering an Asian-made replacement regulator is that the door handle post(pivot point) is bigger on the bottom than the top, and the manufacturer of the replacement regulator I received made the hidden bottom hole as small as the hole for the top of the door handle post. If you aren't careful, and you won't notice that it is impossible to fit the bottom post into the bottom hole with drilling it out to the correct size. Instead, you think the end is in sight, and you add that extra little bit of pressure to force the top of the door post into the retainer, which will not happen if the bottom hole has not been checked and drilled out, so you break the top retainer instead, just like he said would happen. A fairly new super adhesive is Loctite HY 4070, which will hold when nothing else will, and cures in 5 to 7 minutes - I have glued my retainer back on, and added more of that adhesive, as insurance, after I put it back together. Asian-made regulators don't come with mounting bolts of any description - only the two 10mm bolts for the window clamps. Hope this tip helps somebody dealing with these replacement regulators.

Thank you for taking your time making these videos. Had the part shipped and after pausing and rewinding your video I was able to replace my driver side window regulator in under 2 and 30 minutes on my Ford 2010 Expedition EL. Great video production and thanks again.

This is one of the best instructive videos I have watched. Replacing the window regulator on this car is messy given its poor design. This video helped me be successful. Thanks so much for posting it.

Thanks for posting. Followed your instructions and was done in 1 hour. Mine is a 2008, driver side door. I had to reprogram the auto up and down (found instructions on another site). With this video the job was not too hard, getting the new regulator in place was the biggest pain.

Outstanding step by step clear instructions. Very helpful to see exact repair in such clarity before having to do it. Saved me a bunch, time and money. Mine is a 2008 was exactly as shown.

Thanks... made the job a breeze. After watching I decided I can do this. Guess what.... I could. Thanks!!

Very straight forward and easy to follow. Went as quickly as a first timer can be, taking pics and such. Not certain of how much I saved by DIY but suspect better than 300.00 in labor, plus time.

Thank You! I think this is exactly what is wrong with mine and I'm going to double check tomorrow and buy from the amazon link you gave. I just fixed my leaking Radiator/Coolant or whatever T hose by watching a youtube video and spend just $6.99 instead of the $480 Ford wanted and $350 my local mechanic wanted. I am handy around the house but never worked on cars until now. KZfaq is awesome and I appreciate people like you sharing what you do. I'm thinking of shooting a video of when i do this if I can. I know when I followed the "4 minute hack" for my T hose I ran into problems they didn't mention in that video and there was a bit of a hint of that when I replayed the video I saw they cut off when they stuck a screw driver in the hose to deal with the problem I ended up having. I figure since that 4 minute hack took me about 1-2 hours as a novice I will do this on a Saturday so i don't have to worry about stalls and missing work. I will let everyone know how it worked out. I've watched the video twice and after double checking tomorrow will then order the part but I have the same exact problem and think it's this. Thank YOU!

This is the best video instruction I have even used. My new regulator is in a functioning great. I did it without any issues. Thank you for being a great teacher!!

Thanks for doing the video.. Just changed out my 2003 Navigator passenger front regulator. Good tips. Wish I would have watched it before I pulled off the panel to see what the problem was. Broke a couple of the plastic 'J' clips from not lifting up on the panel. I pulled it straight away. Have done lots of GM many years ago, but never a late model Ford/Lincoln. It went back together fine... Thank You.... Will look for more of your videos as the need arises.... Saved me some bucks... Don't go back to the dealer much anyway..... Later.. Gerry

Excellent my sky was falling down Until I founded this vídeo. My 2007 ford expedition drive side has the same problem..man thank you .because you did everything in detailed. God bless you.I 🕊🕊🕊

Your video was amazing. It was exactly what I needed to replace my window regulator on my 2007 Ford Expedition. It was like having a mechanic right there helping. I have one question for you. Everything works great, but now my interior door handle is very loose, wiggly if you will :), everything went back together well so I am dumbfounded. Your insight would be greatly appreciated

Excellent tutorial. Worth noting, this process for the Ford Expedition is virtually identical for the (Ford) Lincoln Navigator of the same years.

very good video!!! I just did mine and it took me almost 40 minutes from the time I take the tools out and the time everything is done! Maybe i would add a little something, my main problem was that one track of my original regulator had a rusty cable and maybe the little wheel at the bottom was also damaged by the water/rust, I would suggest to add some silicon lubricant on every componant that can receive it just to protect it better and make your job last longer. An other thing too I would tigth the bolts for the track when the window is all the way down because there is enough play in the little holes and if the window is all the way up well the tracks could be a little bit off and it will force through misaligned tracks. I did the test, I let the bottom bolts loose and when My window came down I saw the distance of the tracks closing a little bit so if the distance of the track is to big well the guide will use faster and you can also damage your equipment faster.

Just used this to help me replace the passenger side in my '07 Expedition. Worked perfectly!!!! Thanks!!!

Thank you, keep up the tutorial videos. I did just what you did on my 07 navigator and i was able to change the regulator, you are a great person for showing people how to do the job and save money.

Thank you for these clear and easy instructions to follow. With your help I have done several repairs on my wifes 08 expedition now. Thank you!

Thank You! Made this job a nice simple task. Two hours and three beers for the average shade tree mechanic.

Awesome Tutorial! Took me about 1.5 hours watching your video. Thanks so much for doing this, appreciate you.

Had the exact same truck with the same issue on the same door. Followed your video and it was a perfect work instruction. Thank you very much for the help, it is greatly appreciated.

Great video, very easy and accurate. Used it to replace the driver side regulator on my 2010 Ford Expedition EL Limited and everything was exactly the same. Only weird thing is it won't go down by on auto and if you make it go auto up, as soon as it hits the top it goes back down 3 inches on its own.

Thank you very much! Watched another video and the poor guy changed the motor and it was the actuator!. With your video I purchased the part in advance and did the job the same day!

I just replaced my 2007 Expy drivers' side regulator for $160 - the dealership wanted to charge $570. Without your video for a DIY project I'd be hooped! Thank you FordTechMakuloco!

Thanks for the help. It was very precise and simple to follow. I appreciate your efforts to help others out. Thanks again!

Excellent video. Thank you! You're a true professional - very efficiently done and friendly narration. Absolutely perfect.

This was an awesome video! No way i could have replaced this window regulator on my own without taking 2 days to figure it out!!! Thanks soooo much!

On my fourth set of forward regulators. Drivers goes out first then the passenger front next 6-9 months later. It’s 2020 now and it’s a 2007 Expansion so every 4 years. this thing built like a tank on wheels. You got anything on the weather stripping on the door jams. Thanks for sharing

Thank you very much for this video! I was able to do the repair myself in under 90 minutes and a good 20 minutes of that was trying to get the door handle to go back on. It was a little tricky for some reason and the clip that holds in the pull cable doesn't seem to be as tight of a fit as it should be. Seems to be working OK now, but will have to keep an eye on that. Overall it was very straightforward after watching this video and saved me a ton of money. Thanks again!

Awesome video! Your easy step by step instructions saved me hundreds of dollars. Thank you!

Thank you so much! Sometimes I watch your videos to convince me not to attempt a repair (cam phasers). In this case, your video confirmed that it should be an easy repair...and it was. Thanks again!

Thanks for the video. In my case I only needed the first 3 minutes, I am going to install towing mirrors on our '14, just wanted to see how to get the door panel off.. after that, it's pretty easy and straight forward for what I need.

great video! Just did my window regulator with confidence thanks to you it was a breeze ! Got a Dorman on amazon for 90.00. The window works like new again.

Killer video. I appreciate all the videos you crank out.

Great how to video!!! I just replaced the one on my wife's 2010 and I took the ipad out to the car and followed your video step by step and it work perfect. I did not have a torque wrench that went down to 90 pounds so I winged it. Thanks.

Great video! Helped me replace my driver side window regulator on my 2008 Lincoln Navigator. Only took an hour and a half working at a leisurely pace.

My edge window just dropped yesterday. Have it taped for now, going to try and tackle this tmrw

Thank you so much! My 2015 Navigator was almost exactly the same and it's fixed thanks to this. Love the music in the background too! ♥️

Thus guy is great. He has helped me on many projects.

Dude... THANK YOU. This video was very comprehensive and helped me save a ton of money by following your instructions and doing the work myself. I really appreciate the little tips and intricacies you point out. I found a replacement part on Amazon for $50. It worked great, just had to bore out the crash sensor holes a tad. Thank you!!!!

Thanks a million. Video was awesome easy to follow and understand. Bought the window regulator at Autozone for 150 bucks. If I can do it anyone can do it. Thanks again fordtechmakuloco

Excellent walk through! You make working on the Expedition east with your step by step

Thank you so much for this video I just installed this in my wife’s car and it was so satisfying to be able to do it myself, you did a excellent job . God Bless you 👍🏻🇺🇸🙏🏻

Total lifesaver!!! Perfect instructions for a 2007 Expedition...
