Default Window Roller

Okay, I just got my car a few weeks ago, and there was no handle for rolling the window, and I can't get it to push on to the metal thing it connects to. I asked the guy I bought it from about it and he said a mechanic looked at it and said something must be internally broken, and that the best thing to do would be to replace the door. I think that is pretty retarded.

Anyone know what could be broke? And how I could go about fixing it?

this happened to me too. most likely all the thread on the bar is out.. so go to kragens or any hardware store and buy a VISE GRIP. it works fine but looks ghetto. and power windows wont fix this problem because you need to replace the bar in order for the gears to turn it.

I got the handle off of my buddys 91 civic. It looks the exact same as the ones in my civic, so I assume it would fit. What exactly would I have to fix brand0? I'd like to get this working properly
