@@Wild_Duck19 Thanks, I’m surprised it’s been so useful given the crappy production, but people just want the info and no waffle I suppose.

Glad it helped you. It is a frustrating job but 2 hours is pretty good first time. Using the piece of card to stop the wire coming off the wheel really helps

@mphomogashu woul you mind doing a pictorial step by step guide? I know it would be a PIA but I reckon it'll help novices like me to undertake a DIY job like this.

Thanks peter, i appreciate the comment. I’m amazed this crude little video has helped so many people.

Thanks, they’re just variations on the same theme mostly

I’m glad it helped you. I think in the factory they use the upright twist to fit the wheel as well. 👍

👍 I’m amazed this crappy little video has been so useful, but seems it’s helped a lot of people.

@@thpxs0554 well my old man and i were giffling with the bloody springs flinging everywhere for hours... Looked on youtube and uour the only person to adress the spring loaded mechanism. Love the work mate. FromPerth Australia.

I’m glad it helped you

@@thpxs0554 restored it successfully, bought it in the same store. Used the Turn the drumb technic ( not the one you used ) :)

I have paid for each window 250e in Germany.In other countries cost 20e the same 😂😂😂

I know what you mean, that must have been frustrating, mix and match

muchos gracias por su commentario. Hablo un poco espaniol pero no leer lo, pero KZfaq traduccion me ayudo.😊

Hola. Estoy con el mismo problema y necesito reparar el plástico o modificarlo para poderlo reutilizar porque una punta del soporte esta partida. Esa pieza plástica no está disponible en Argentina. Como lo arreglaste o modificaste al plástico ??. Pudiste reutilizar los mismos cables de acero ??, porque se marcan un poco. Muchas gracias.

I have the same problem with 508 sw.The worst car ever.I would never again a Peugeot buy.

I’m surprised this little video has been so useful. 👍

@@thpxs0554 got the kit on friday, will be having a go today, sunday

@@floridahummer I ended up fitting the cable about 4-5 times cos I missed it on the camera and got the camera the wrong way up etc, once you get the knack the whole job is 10 minutes. Just make sure the cables are in their correct groove so as one vacates a groove the other one fills it, if they cross you’ll have a big mess. You can and probably should slide the sliding plate down the rail rather than clip it over like I did. Which is how I’ll do the next one. That saves stressing the new plastic slider. Let me know if you sort it 👍

in the other film there is the clue - shorter one should go to upper side, longer to lower side of the window.

Reset Procedure Start your 508. Close all the doors and windows. Open the window by pressing and holding the window control switch. When the window is fully open, keep the switch pressed for a few seconds. Close the window by lifting and holding the window control switch. When the window is fully closed, keep the switch held for a few seconds. Note: Repeat the procedure if the window does not automatically close with one press of the switch. If it still doesn’t work, repeat the procedure without starting the engine and the ignition in ON position. To turn on the ignition in vehicles with start/stop button, press the button without pressing the brake pedal. Reset Procedure 2 If the above reset instructions do not work for your 508, then this alternate method may work. Start your 508. Close all windows and doors. Open the window by pressing and holding the window control switch. When the window is fully open, keep the switch pressed for a few seconds. Release the switch, then press it again and hold it for a few seconds. Close the window by lifting and holding the window control switch. When the window is fully closed, keep the switch held for a few seconds. Release the switch, then pull it upward again and hold it. The one-touch up and down features will then be fully functional. Note: If the window still doesn’t automatically close in your 508, repeat the procedure without starting the engine and the ignition in ON position. To turn on the ignition in vehicles with start/stop button, press the button without pressing the brake pedal.

@@thpxs0554 Thanks for your support, I will try

@@thpxs0554 I took the wires out and re-wrapped them and it was fine. Now the automatic lifting mechanism works properly. There is no need for calibration. The round, white, threaded part directly connected to the engine has a direction. Perform the winding process by checking the wires. Thanks for everything.

I can’t say for sure but the wheel is 48.5mm diameter . 13mm thick and has 22 teeth for the motor drive. But the 208 has a different regulator, with 2 sliders. The cables will be much longer as well. But if you get yours out it may just need a simple part like a new wire, than you can make from a cycle cable.

@@thpxs0554 I got my regulator out because I had it "broken". Found out the probably the issue is the wheel being so worn that wires slips out. Would honestly be so sad to spend +100 euros on a new entire piece just for the wheel

I should probably measure my actual wheel because I can"t find any pre-existent informations online

@@Vaynecenzo that’s why I sent you the measurements, so you don’t waste money taking a chance on buying a 508 wheel. But if the wheel is worn like in my video then the wire groove gets deeper and holds the wire even better. If it’s worn on the motor drive teeth then you need a new one. Usually on those two slider systems one of the small wheels at the end breaks then it goes round the drum and mangles everything. But for sure a 508 cable won’t fit a 208 regulator. But the wheel might

@@Vaynecenzo if the measurements for the wheel I gave you are close then it’s worth taking a chance for £10 buying the 508 kit. But it must have the same number of drive teeth in the middle.

Hi, there are EBay sellers in Turkey Lithuania and Germany . There are problems with shipping to the EU due to BREXIT. You must get the correct repair kit for your window. Left and right are different and possibly front and back are different . The 2 wires are the same length. One gets longer and the other shorter as the window goes up and down. I suggest you remove the window mechanism first to find out what has broken. Before you order the repair kit. I would remove the mechanism and then secure the window with a piece of wood from underneath inside the door. If you use adhesive tape to secure the widow, it will fail and the window fall into the door and break. I have seen that happen. You may find that yours has a broken part that is not in the repair kit. Sometimes the small wheels can break

@@thpxs0554 thanks for the advice, but I already bought on the Polish allegro and took off the cover in the door and the cable fell there, the mechanic said that the plastic has definitely broken, just like in your movie, this afternoon I will be replacing, when I finish it, I will let you know how it went, but I have these lines of different lengths, I have to the door on the right in the back from the passenger, of course in Poland there is right-hand traffic than left-hand traffic

@@mr.zbych1002 hi, the translation is not clear enough for me to understand what you mean by lines. On the repair kit I used in the video both the wires ( cables ) were the same length. If you mean wires inside the door and not for the window then I’m sorry I can’t say where they go. I would only replace the damaged parts . Any original parts that are ok, I would re-use. If the original cables are ok then I would keep them . Sorry if I’m not understanding you properly, I know what it’s like trying to give information in a different language. I speak Spanish and it can lead to mis understandings

@@thpxs0554 I'm talking about those wire ropes that you wind on the wheel that you had rigid blue, and you got white in the repair kit

@@thpxs0554 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mc5ml8WCv5_dXWQ.html you see

Hi Danny, I’m sorry I have no idea, I wish I’d measured it but saw no reason at the time.

@@thpxs0554 no problem. Appreciate your response.

They look nice but if you can’t fix them they’re a money pit.

@@thpxs0554 yes,they are very comfortable and nice cars but,no thanks 🤣🤣🤣
