i dont htink it's too hard to take the door panel off...hmmm....could prolly find something on this site. I think you just take out the inner door handle thing, the lil plastic piece around the handle to open the door, then u just unlatch the vinyl cover thing over the door, then everything should be behind a piece of plastic, that u'll have to rip through.

That's how I rmember it when we did it.

Yeah, i'm guessing ur window is prolly off the track or something. Good luck man =)

your window is probably off the track. so it doesn't move at all? because mine just goes really slow sometimes. either way yea the door panel is not hard to take off, once you do that its pretty self-explanatory. they will fix it at a honda dealership if you don't want to go through the trouble but they always charge you for random crap. they wanted to chrage me 400 f**king dollars to take my AC stuff out. good luck anywa :thumbs up

Well if the window is off the track it will still move, it just looks like it will fall out when you roll it up. to take off the door panel at least on my 97 you take out the plastic pieces arounf the door handle, and where the window remote is, disconnect the wires, the pop off the speaker cover, un bolt the speaker, unplug it, then there are three holes there, take thoese screws out, then along the inside of the door panel alont the bottom there are clips the hold the panel on, you are suppose to use a speacial tool so you dont break these, but you can use what ever you want, you prolly will brake a couple but thats okay. after that the door panel will just come off lift up then out. This will give you access to the door lock mechanisim, and window motor and so on! good luck, sorry if you already fixed this I dont like to look at post dates ;)

Make sure you window is off track first. If its still on track and still wont move, get some sort of lubrication (No not that kind) spray, and spray in that area near the sideview mirrors. Pretend your sitting in your car with the door open and window down. Spray in between that black piece near the sideview mirror downwards into the door panel. Let it sit for a few seconds, then roll up. If it still doesnt roll up, get a new motor. (This method also helps when your window rolls up slow)

theres like three maybe four screw in the panel and then it will pop off, really simple, the hardest part is finding were they hid the screws

welcome to honda windows.
The reason my current honda does not have them.. Plus not even sure if they came with them... But I will never own a honda with power windows ever again... I went though so much crap when I had my SI and I love having the windows down.

Anyways its not that hard to fix just a pain if you have it down and it starts to rain and then you gotta pull over and start taking your car apart.
