CLICKING NOISE IN FRONT AND REAR DOORS

A CLICKING NOISE MAY BE HEARD COMING FROM THE FRONT OR REAR DOOR WHEN RAISING THE DOOR GLASS WITH A MANUAL OR ELECTRIC TAPE DRIVE WINDOW REGULATOR. IF THIS CONDITION IS ENCOUNTERED, IT CAN BE CORRECTED BY PERFORMING THE FOLLOWING OPERATIONS. 1.REMOVE TAPE FROM REGULATOR (SEE PAGE 5-61 AND 5-71 IN THE 1981 FISHER BODY SERVICE MANUAL. 2.INSPECT TAPE FOR ANY OBVIOUS DAMAGE THAT COULD RESULT IN A NOISY CONDITION. 3.IF TAPE IS DAMAGED, REPLACE AS REQUIRED. 4.IF THERE IS NO PHYSICAL DAMAGE, TURN TAPE OVER (REVERSE SIDE "A" AND "B") AND REINSTALL INTO THE REGULATOR (SEE FIGURE 1). TURNING THE TAPE OVER WILL CORRECT THE CONDITION BY PREVENTING THE DRIVE GEAR FROM CONTACTING SMALL BURRS WHICH ARE ONLY PRESENT ON ONE SIDE OF THE TAPE. 5.INSTALL PREVIOUSLY REMOVED PARTS.

General Motors bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, not a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform those technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, do not assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See a General Motors dealer servicing your brand of General Motors vehicle for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
