Window lifter doesn't close the window all the way up.

Post by TB2 »

Hello,

with friendly help from Todd I received a set of manual window lifter scissors and door panels to fit to my Entreprise version BX in the rear. I started fitting one of the scissors and I think I did everything right but for some reason the scissor reaches the end of the winding gear before the window is fully closed. here's some pictures of how the scissors are fit and the 1cm gap at the top.
I'm a bit baffled because the mechanism fits perfectly and the window goes up and down without a problem, it's just that the gear ends too early.

Any clues?

Nevermind! Apparently the two lifters aren't exactly identical as I thought they are. I've installed the other one and the gap is gone. The first one fits perfectly on the other side. problem solved.
