Hi, I'm Mike from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video, we're going to show you how to replace a rear window regulator on this 2003 GMC Envoy XL. It's the same part and similar process on the regular Envoys from 2002 to 2009. The items you'll need are a new rear window regulator from 1AAuto.com, flat blade screw driver, a 7mm and 10mm socket and ratchet, and a putty knife.
Start off by prying up this little cover with a flat blade screw driver. Then remove those two 7mm bolts. Stick a putty knife behind the door panel and slide it down until you find the first clip and pry out and reach in behind the door panel and just pull out around each clip. Once you remove each of those clips, you can pull the door handle back. Then just push this switch from underneath. It comes up and out. Then push the tab on the harness and disconnect it. You could technically do this before removing the door panel, but you're more likely to scratch up your door panel if you do that. Remove your water shield. Having a razor blade can help because you can just cut at the adhesive, but you can also just pull it free.
This is a cable activated regulator, and a lot of times when they break, what you'll be able to do, you'll hear a popping and grinding noise, and then your window will actually move up and down. So, once you get the door panel off, you'll want to move it to this position where you can get at this 10mm nut and this 10mm nut, and you're going to loosen those. Before we do that, we'll just take a screw driver and push on this tab here and push the connection out. Pull the window up and out of those clamps. Then push the tabs on this clip and push it through the door. Then remove these two 10mm bolts and loosen this top one. Tilt your window regulator and then lift it up and unhook it and pull it down and out of the door.
On the left is the old regulator. On the right is the new one from 1A Auto. You can see they're identical, and they'll fit exactly the same. Remove that top bolt from your old regulator and thread it into your new one just loosely so that you can hang it up in the door. Take your new window regulator, feed it up into the door, push that bolt through the top and hang the regulator and then just line it up and replace those other two bolts. We'll fast forward as Mike does this and tightens them both up. Push this clip back into the door, loosen up these window clamps, reconnect this harness, and then slide the window down into those clamps. Once you have it all the way in and clamped down, tighten up those two 10mm nuts, put your vehicle into accessory, plug in the switch, and just test out the regulator. You can see it works. You can just disconnect the switch and make sure you put your car back in the off position.
We'll fast forward as Mike replaces that water shield. To replace your door panel take the small panel and push it back onto these studs. Then, push the harness for that switch back up through the hole in the door panel. Line up the clips on the door panel, and once you have them all lined up, just hit them into place. Reconnect the switch and push it down into place, and then replace those two 7mm bolts and tighten them back up. Now just replace the small cover, and you're all set.

Hi, I'm Mike from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video, we're going to show you how to replace the window regulator on this 2003 GMC Envoy XL. It's the same part and similar process on the regular GMC Envoy from 2002 to 2009. We show you on the driver's side, but the passenger's side is a similar procedure. The items you'll need for this include a new window regulator from 1AAuto.com, a flat blade screwdriver, a 7mm and 10mm socket and ratchet, and a putty knife.
Pry up the back of your switch panel with a flat blade screwdriver and then pry up the front. Then pull the switch panel up and out, push the tab on these two harnesses on this end, and disconnect them. Then use a flat blade screwdriver, and pry up the tab on the remaining harnesses.
Next, remove this 10mm bolt in here and this 10mm bolt right there. We'll fast-forward as Mike does this. Using a putty knife, just push this back in behind the door panel and slide it down until you find a clip. Then just pry out. Then you can reach your fingers back there and just pry out around the edge. Then just pry out on this small part of the panel up here and lift your door panel up and out of the window sill. Then it's free.
Now, you'll have to remove the speaker, so just remove these three 7mm bolts, and just push the tab on this harness and disconnect it. There's two clips on the back of the speaker. Pry out right here and then down here. Now remove your water shield. A razor blade helps because you can just cut the adhesive around here.
These are cable style regulators. This cable wraps through and all through these conduits. Usually what happens is that breaks, and then you can actually just grab onto your window and move it up or down, and you want to move to a position where you can get off this 10mm nut and then this one here in the front. You do just need to loosen them up. You don't need to remove them. Open up those clamps and then slide the window out of them and all the way up. Push the tab on this harness and disconnect it. Loosen these two 10mm bolts and then remove one, two, and three.
Now lift your regulator up so that it unhooks. Then just angle it down and out through here. On the left is the old window regulator; on the right is the new one from 1A Auto. You can see they're identical, and they'll fit exactly the same.
Swap those two 10mm bolts you used to hand the regulator over to your new window regulator. We'll just fast-forward as Mike does this. Take your new window regulator, feed it back into the door, and clip those two bolts into place. Once you have everything lined up, just replace the other bolts and tighten them up. Reconnect your harness.
Then take your switch panel and reconnect the harnesses for the window switches. Put your car into accessory, and just move the regulator down to where it was when you removed the other one. Now that you have access to both clamps, disconnect your switch panel and make sure you turn off your car. Loosen up the clamps on the regulator, then slide your window down into place. Make sure it's lined up and all the way down into those clamps, and then tighten the clamps back up.
We'll continue to fast-forward as Mike pushes those harnesses through the water shield and puts the water shield back into place. Line up your speaker and push it back into place. Then replace those three 7mm screws and tighten them up. Reconnect your speaker harness.
To replace your door panel, push the harnesses back through this hole. Then lift the door panel up and into the window sill. Once you have it lined up, push it down into place. Then make sure the clips are lined up, and then just hit them back in around the sides of the door panel. For these bolts, what you want to do is be able to hold them into the socket so a little bit of glue or any kind of piece of cloth. I just have a little electrical tape, put it on the bolt head, and stick into the socket. That way your screw will stay in there. Then you can just put it right in and start it. We'll just fast-forward as Mike replaces and tightens up those two bolts. Reconnect the harnesses to your switch pack. Then line up your switch panel and push it back down into place.
