CHL2T Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 The first problem has shown itself on the 04 DTS........ Anyone removed the rear panels? If so, care to elaborate? Thanks......

CHL2T Posted July 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Seems like the panel is held by some clips and a small screw at the pull..... need a stubby driver which is at work. Proceeded to clamp wood shims on either side of the glass and was able to yank it into the closed position where it is currently wedged. On a whim, I pushed the down switch and it will go down and back up but wont hold it in the up position. Any ideas? Don't let your first ride be your last ride in a Cadillac!

Logan Posted July 17, 2014 Report Share Posted July 17, 2014 Sounds like the classic pop-n-drop window regulator issue. Either the hottest or coldest day of the year...the window regulator suddenly fails... Plus...it's something you have to deal with right away. I had to replace all 4 on my 2001 Deville.

CHL2T Posted July 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2014 Just got through repairing both window regulators..... very simple fix and works perfectly Here are the links to the videos that I used... http://www.devillewindowregulators.com/video-repair-deville-window-regulators/ I didn't follow the repair with the putty though, the wire I used was plenty Don't let your first ride be your last ride in a Cadillac!
