Power window shaking problem.
When I'm lowering my driver's side power window, it goes about 2 inches just fine then begins to shake all the way down.
I took the door apart for other reasons last night and noticed that there's this thick cable with springs type thing just dragging along the bottom of the door and hanging loose when you open and close it and I'm assuming that it's probably some sort of balancing device.
I hunted a bit, but couldn't find where it goes. Anyone have a good clue?
Thanks!

Well, it feels good that I'm not the only one with the problem. ![Big Grin](https://www.rx7club.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
I'm trying to check the shop manuals when people aren't bugging the crap outta me at work, but I'll I've found so far are the wiring diagrams for the circuit.

when i first got my 87, the guy before me wired the the passenger window to the driver side switch and now both windows go down from one switch and the passenger side goes up verrry slooow because its just stealing power from the driver side.
and oh yeah that springy thingy dragging in your window should have a cover on it, and it has nothing to do with how the window goes up and down.

I did clean my contacts while I was in there though, and the chattering on the driver's side is still a problem, which I didn't expect it to fix anyways.

I do have to grease up the passenger's side though, that puppy is pretty goobed up. I just didn't have the time today.
