I am having a problem with my '96 Town Car. A few weeks ago the driver's window became noisy and slow to roll up or down. Today it stayed down. The noise is scratchy.
I have a factory manual and some basic skills. I pulled the door panel off and can see the motor, There is this thing that looks like a cable, similar to a brake cable for a bike. It looks like it should go into the the top of the motor but it's just hanging. I can hear and feel the motor activating with the switch but there's no movement in the window.
As I plug away at this, I'd appreciate any advice.
Thanks!

Well, here's the update. I obviously need a new regulator. It's on order. I have the official Ford Manual, but I can't loosen the special fasteners that hold the regulator in. The manual calls for a " #2 Scrulox bit" I saw a picture of one of those bits and it doesn't seem right.
any help?

I had the same problem you start noticing the window going up slow and stops working properly that when you know it is time to change the window regulator.

I searched around and apparently I need to drill out the fasteners. I'll try as soon as I get the part.
