The past couple of days I have hear a rattle in the drivers door going over bumps and such. Too it apart today and found these laying at the bottom of the inner door? I can't find what these might have went to , any ideas?

 

Have manual windows, keyless entry, everything on the door work fine, so dont know what these went to? maybe a part of a aftermarket power window???

 

{look at pictures in next post}

 

sorry the pictures are not too good of quality, but that coil look as if it went between those 2 plastic pieces......

 

Help me!!!

They look like a part to the power windows. It looks like part of the piece that the cable runs through then gets wound on a drum. The spring(coil) is usually in there to help hold the tension and then aid in spinning the drum the other way.

 

It is only a guess. I've seen something similar on an import with the window actuator. Thought that there would be something to fix in it but as it turned out you have to buy the whole piece.

 

Anyway, did your truck have aftermarket windows installed at one time?

Thanks for some light on this?

 

I'm not sure if this truck ever had aftermarket power windows!! I got it with 45K on it, there are not extra wires in the door area, or any cutting to the panel. When I added the power windows the inner film on the door(weather protector) had never been messed with. i'm at a lost, i guess i could remove the pass side door and feel around.

They look like parts of the window regulater,relief spring and cover to be exact...

Is the window a little harder to wind up (close)? The spring applies tension to assist in closing the window,it counters the weight of the window...kinda like a garage door spring....for example

      2020 Trailboss 6.2 replacement

      By 2017Z · Posted

      Looking for advice from this group. Took my flawless 2020 6.2 TB to an unnamed shop for routine rear brakes and oil change. Tech forgot to put oil back in after the full service and needles to say, destroyed my engine.  It’s all on their shop video so they are responsible.   I had my Chevy dealer do the analysis and they confirmed its compromised and said engine replacement. The manager said they only get GM reman engines from GM with full 3 yr warranty and the one they would put in is not same as what’s they are swapping out on 21-25 for recall.    I am looking for advice why that would be a different engine because obviously I had the good 6.2 year and replacing it has my concerns with that recall for 21-15   Also what’s the pros and cons of accepting the engine swap vs telling the shop that bricked the truck to pay up so I buy a new truck. I’m concerned about stigma resale eventually if I just decide to get rid of it after the swap or other issues showing up after the swap out.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By GN2018 · Posted

      Just looked up my records.  I've never gone over 5000 miles between oil changes.  At 46K miles, I have 10 oil changes.  I hope that will help.  I also installed the disabler last year.  I've still had a few times when it didn't seem to engage (which I can tell because the start stop feature kicks in), but for the most part, I think it's working.  For some reason, GM did not include the number of cylinders running in the information screen like I had on other models.  In my Cadillac, it shows me when it's running on 4 cylinders on the fuel milage screen.  I can't find that on my '21 Denali.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Melling I believe is/was the OEM on the lifters who explored this problem some years ago. The white paper they generated on the topic indicated two items of note when I read it. 1.) They only fail on the switch. Prevent the switch, prevent the failure. 2.) The majority fail due to deposits messing up the timing of that switch. Anyway that's what I got from it.    Mine have always been active, 195K+ now, and my oil maintenance is surgically clean.    Of course this assumes good parts. That is no heat treat issue or machining flaws. I get comfortable that these issues are in the rearview mirror by about 30K. IMHO naturally.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Yes, the key seems to be with the half tons that if it has the Z71, then it definitely has the two speed. What got me was that the two speed AND the lower geared towing package option could not be chosen together the last few years unless it was mated up to the 6.2. Want the 3.0 duramax and 3.73 tow gears ... nope, can't get the two speed transfer case ( neighbor son realized that after he had bought his used 3.0 half ton .. where the frick is the low range ? ! ).    I am still unsure which truck series, the half ton or the HD truck that the original poster is referring to for sure other than yes his question is in the HD section of this forum but that doesn't guarantee the question got asked in the right section.
