I have a 2000 LS6 and all of a sudden the driver's door window stopped working. I think I may have caused it when the window was frozen shut a couple times this winter and i keept trying to force it with the switch.
I can hear the motor operating when I hit the switch. The window goes up but not down. I pulled the door apart and saw that the window bracket on the left had one of the track guide prongs that keeps it moving on the track and the guide ball was no longer in the bracket (image attached). The window was no longer in either of the channels. Apparently they lost their seal. The broken one wouldn't move at all but the one on the right would move up and down.
1) Where can I find the entire replacement channel for the guide track or is the dealer my only option?
2) Should I replace the other channel guide at the bolt or just clean everything thoroughly and reglue the window in the channels.
3) What type of adhesive should I use to hold the window in the new rubber channels or is adhesive not necessary?
A prompt response for properly fixing the window will be greatly appreciated.
