[DML] Re: Power Windows & Parking brake

["Doc" <doctor280@xxxx>]

Just wanted to clarify something here. When you are working with or removing
or replacing the window regulator, you should never even have to touch or
remove any of the locking rods or any of the locking system. I have taken
several window regulator out and replaced them with out removing any of the
locking system. I will emit that you will have to hold your mouth just right
to get the window regulator out, once you have removed the screws and nuts
that hold it in place.

Also take a look on my site for directions on how you maybe be able to
repair your window. I call it the $5.00 window fix. I guess that it is
coming close to a year now that I performed this fix on my Delorean and I
have not experienced any problems with my windows since.

If you choose to open up your door compartment understand that there are
many small parts that need to placed in exactly the same way you removed
them. you have to go through door lock rods to get to the window track and
its very easy to break the glass so be careful. Its hard to see but if you
look carefully you will see how the window operates and can pretty much
figure it out for yourself.

As for your brake problem, if you remove your wheels you can see your
adjustment right above the main brake caliper. Adjustments can be made
accordingly with simple tools. As you pointed out, check your pads.
