98 CIVIC DX

 

wish i could help but ill bump your thread

can you pull the glass up ?

 

Same thing happened to me in my 1994 civic coupe. I had to replace the entire window lift assembly, it actually broke. It only cost me 50 bucks installed from a local honda wreckers. wish i could help ya more but when the window drops down the lifter is usually broken and not usable anymore.

 

Take off the inner panel, not hard, screw under the door release, pull cup off. Screw in the pocket on the arm rest area. Take off the winder, I think it you need a flat head screw driver and you can release it. Pull off the panel it clipped on. See if you grab the glass and pull it up, look at the regulator scissor looking mechanism get you hand under it and see if you can raise the glass. At least this will get the window closed. It also can be off the run channel try to realign it. You will probably need a new regulator it is about 50 bucks or so.
