Default Window Regulatoe Problem

Dioes anyone know where to find a diagram or picture that shows how the cable is suppose to wind around the motor. My passenger side made a loud pop today and now the window won't roll up. I pulled the door panel and got the glass up and when you hit the window up button the cable gets a lot of slack in it and then gets tight and then tries to roll down.

Try searching on the forum, I know I have seen a picture. To me it sounds like your pulleys are worn. I had a recent adventure with window regulator, bought PIMAX aftermarket, garbage design. Get a OEM or OEM type if you need to replace.

Hint: be carfeful taking off the door inside trim, the handle seems to have various size torx depending on year and since it is a blind hole it is hit and miss.

There is also this, and many other how to's by searching "repairing SAAB 9-3 window regulator" on Google
