Power windows on the VAZ-2107. Installing the window on the VAZ-2107 do it yourself

Electric window regulator is one ofmost useful inventions of the late twentieth century. And if before such devices were installed exclusively on expensive foreign cars, now this luxury is available even to owners of old VAZ cars. However, if the choice of the window does not cause any problems, then you can get very confused during installation. So, how are the windows mounted on the VAZ 2107? Read about it in our story.

A few words about the device mechanism

In general, the window regulator is not such a complicated part as it seems at first glance. Its design includes only a few components.

In the photo number 1 (VAZ 2107 window regulator scheme) we see that the standard window regulator consists of such structural elements as:

• 1,2 - handle and facing of the window lifter handle.
• 3 - device socket.
• 4 - window lifting mechanism.
• 5 - upper rollers.
• 6 - mounting screws for pressure plates.
• 7 - plates.
• 8 - bottom window bracket.
• 9 - glass.
• 10 - cable.
• 11 - lower roller.
• 12 - bolts.
• 13 - tensioning pulley.

Varieties

At the moment there are only two types of window lifters for cars:

• rack-and-pinion;
• cable.

The last option is the easiest andpopular among owners of domestic cars, and therefore the most popular in the Russian market. Cordless power windows are an engine with a gearbox and a coil. A special cable is wound onto the last one, driving the upper drum. In turn, it connects through the slots with a standard window regulator. Replacing the power window VAZ 2107 of this kind does not require special skills, abilities and knowledge. Due to this, even a novice motorist can change this mechanism.

About device design

The design of rack analogs significantlydifferent from the cable, and their principle of operation resembles the action of the steering rack in the car. This type of power windows is characterized by ease of movement of the lifting mechanism, making them more suitable for working with tight windows.

How do pinion electric windows work on VAZ 2107?

As for the principle of action of thisdevice, the "Seven" in this regard is practically no different from other models of the VAZ family and other foreign cars, which use lifting mechanisms on the electric drive. And the electric windows work only when the ignition is turned on in the car system. If you remove the key from the ignition, the glass can only be raised.

The main role in the operation of the mechanism of electricalpower window plays the controller. It is this device that closes all the locks on the doors when setting the car on the alarm and automatically closes all open windows, also performing the function of a "closer".

What is most interesting at the end of worklift controller does not absorb energy from the battery, going into standby mode. If necessary, this unit automatically supplies current to the ESP mechanism.

Also mentioned device controls performancegearbox, namely, monitors the number of its revolutions. Due to this, the battery practically does not lose energy in vain, and accordingly, the battery keeps charging longer.

By the way, some models of electricwindow regulators have a closer that controls the operation of only two windows, and since the VAZ 2107 model has four doors, drivers often install controllers on all 4 windows at once. But again, it all depends on the specific model of ESP.

Installing the window on the VAZ 2107 - preparation of tools

In the course of the work we will need materials and devices such as:

1. Cross and minus screwdriver.
2. Socket wrench for 8 and 10 millimeters.
3. Painting Scotch.
4. A piece of metal wire with a length of about 100 centimeters.

Getting Started

Having prepared all the necessary tools, firstall disconnect the mass on the battery. After the power supply network is completely disconnected in the car, we disassemble the door and dismantle the old cable mechanism. In its place install a new one. Immediately you need to make sure that it works. Having checked that the cable works, we tighten the mechanism nuts and fix it with wire. This is to ensure that the cable is not tangled during installation. The wire does not have any practical use for the window regulator, so it can be removed upon completion of work. It should also be noted that the cable is installed according to the following algorithm: the upper part of the device goes to the lower roller, and the lower part goes to the upper roller.

As the next set of windows on the WHA2107? The upper video will not be visible to us, so in order to put a cable on it, you need to produce a whole series of hard work. First, an open loop is made at the upper end of the cable. Then it rises through the doorway to the upper roller, which is still unavailable to us. At the same time, in order to catch the roller, you need to move the loop several times in different directions, and then tighten it. So you can accurately fix it in place.

The next step is a cable that was successfullyhooked on the roller, put on the lower mechanism, and then - on the side, regulating the tension. Remember that the item is unacceptable to over-tighten, but it should not be in a free, dangling position. Do you think that the windows on the VAZ 2107 installed? Early rejoice, gentlemen!

Next, the cable is attached to the glass.If the first one starts making creaking sounds, you may have to adjust it again. In this case, the branches of the cable are reversed - the top one is moved down, and the bottom one is moved up. As a result, the annoying creak should go away.

At this stage, the installation of the window at the WHA2107 completed successfully. Now it remains the case for small things: tighten the nuts of the tension roller and the body, lubricate the cable and the joints with a lithologic and reassemble the door in reverse order.

So, we figured out how the windows are arranged on the VAZ 2107, as well as how they are completely replaced. Dare!
