Door glass cocked over

[flybobbie]

So today's task, after i rewire some silent tweeters is to straighten the drivers door glass.
I did notice the glass stick up half an inch when fully down.
Try the reset first.

Might be applicable to anyone getting wet carpets.
Couple of years ago tried to adjust the quarter light after damp carpet behind seat.
All along i never thought it was the main glass!

Well think i found the problem.
This is the cross cable. Being at the bottom collects water inside and rots.
Must have been down to the last few strands before breaking.
So no point buying secondhand as probably all the same.
So ordered Autodoc £132, without the motor.

Although i have ordered new mechanism (did make a funny noise at the end) i'm wondering if i can save a few bob if i can make up new cable assembly.
Have in the past used bicycle cable and the brass bits with screws out of a 13amp plug.....
