this is thing is a total POS. I've had to replace all 4 window regulators and now the front 2 need to be replaced again. Im so fed up with this crap. Cheap parts and a dumb design.

[@PowerUpAuto]

But now you know how to replace just the GEAR inside the window regulator. MUCH less expensive.

[@frozeneskim0480]

Did you ever figure out the back door gear size? I need all 4 unfortunately. I see you have the 4 pack on website. Are those 4 of the front ones only? 2 front 2 back?

[@PowerUpAuto]

2016-2021. All doors are the same gear

[@davidyoung800]

Does anyone know if this gear damage would cause the drivers side 30amp fuse to blow sometimes. Thanks.

[@watson023]

I don't think so. I've had to replace these in multiple cars. I think I've done 4 now and every time it shreds the gear and just spins freely when you use the window switch.

[@waledarfury574]

I have bent the cables by doing this wrong and trying it with a motor. How do I straighten the cable it’s almost unusable now

[@PowerUpAuto]

That happens once in a while. You will need to replace the regulator at this point. Can not straighten the cables.

[@08rubenja]

is the 2014 kia optima drivers window regulator compatible with 2014 sonata window regulator

[@PowerUpAuto]

not at all

[@HEMPNHOPPIN]

Awesome video man thank you

[@armaniiarmii8126]

I have a hyundai elantra and every window regulator i see has the 2pin connector mine has the 5 pin connector do you know by chance where i can find this one (5pin)

[@PowerUpAuto]

you shouldn't need the motor, just the regulator

[@armaniiarmii8126]

@@PowerUpAuto so the regulator w/o the motor should be fine

[@PowerUpAuto]

@@armaniiarmii8126 correct. the motors are seldom a problem

[@armaniiarmii8126]

@@PowerUpAuto Thanks man! I was losing my mind trying to find an exact match with the motor lol definitely subscribing!

[@nonya13]

how did you pop off the panel near the top? For me, seems as though the two washers(?) near the top that go to where the glass is, wont pop off.

[@nonya13]

Got it. Forgot to lower the window and take out the screws.

[@PowerUpAuto]

slightly lift it up and then off

[@nonya13]

@@PowerUpAuto I got the gear in. you weren't kidding. What a mission! But with your vids I saved $450 + tax from the dealer. Now, i just need to do 3 more.....maybe i'll wait until winter. or whatever winter Florida gives me, haha! Thanks again.

[@TheQueensbully]

Do you have a video where you successfully put the gear on without taking off the panel?

[@naveedstegamat6283]

What was the purpose of the black gorilla tape?

[@PowerUpAuto]

I initially started by doing that to keep the spool in place before attaching the motor. Now I'm able to wind the spool and insert the window motor to hold it in place.

[@stacyroberson8000]

Is it possible le without tape.

[@nonya13]

Is it possible to buy the panel with the new gear already installed? If so how do you get it? call a local dealer or Kia directly to get the part? I have a 2016 Kia Optima. Thank you.

[@PowerUpAuto]

Dealer, Amazon, Ebay. BUT, they are expensive

[@nonya13]

​@@PowerUpAuto I've been watching your videos because the teeth went bad (during the dealer doing service believe it or not) and searching this it seems a huge issue with these from 2016-2021 or 2020 I think and Kai doesn't want to do anything about it and the dealer wants $450. Even with the full panel its cheaper.
Trying to figure out if its worth hours trying to put just the gear back in or spring and get the panel. I see you have the gears for a good price on your site. are these updated gears that dont wear the teeth as quickly? In one of your videos you had a panel with a blue gear, are those the better ones? Thank you and great videos.

[@PowerUpAuto]

@@nonya13 They are white gears. No idea how long they will last but they seem to be of good quality.

[@vanmccall7770]

Where do you get the gear for a 2012 optima?

[@PowerUpAuto]

replacement gear only fit 2016-2021. For the older Optima you'll be changing the regulator or motor

[@vanmccall7770]

Thanks
