Thanks westville so did you just replace the motor or the whole actuator? |

I couldn't get the glass out the way when trying to fit drivers side lock mechanism . . . . so gave up, lock mysteriously works most of the time in this warmer weather, i got a spare off ebay (which I still may need) for £26.03 in March, but I see they have gone up in price form the place I used, outside UK though

The glass is held in place by a big yellow spring clip which you need to release to pull the glass up - I used a piece of wooden lat (like a ruler( about 4 or 5 mm thick to slide down between the glass and the clip to release the pressure enough to slide the glass upwards - it doesn't take much to do it. Bit fiddly but once you have done it it is a doddle - the glass just slots back in and psuh down to secure it when re-assembling. No Longer the owner of a 2013MY Fuji White GS

Cheers Westville I was wondering about that. And is there a white one the other side? Also did you remove the glass or just tape it up in place? Cheers! |

You only need to release the grip of the yellow one (it has a curled lip at the top so the lever you use can slip down between the clip and the glass)- I just taped it up out of the way - as I said when you have done it you will wonder what all the fuss was about |

Been trying to get my window free. Won’t release from yellow clip. All the videos miss this bit. All I achieved was very sore hands. There is no room to get at the yellow clip. Failed miserably. |
