Power window too fast
I recently rebuilt all four power windows on my 1965 Bird. They all work great now except the driver's side front widow seems to go up and down really fast. Actually, when it goes down it is almost like it is falling. Any ideas?

Re: Power window too fast
I've got no idea what's up (or down!) with this, but I do think it's the only case I've ever heard of where the window is too fast. All other window issues I can recall pertained to working too slow. So at least you have a distinctive problem.

Re: Power window too fast
Is there a coiled spring in the regulator assembly? The spring is there to assist the window being raised. If it’s in backwards it could allow the window to go down too fast and makes the motor work harder to raise the glass.
