How to Fix a 1998 Honda Civic Power Window Track

The power window track on your 1998 Honda Civic is used to guide your power windows up and down while preventing a sudden fall or an odd angle tilt. When this track is not functioning correctly, the direct result will be that your windows will not open and close properly. In order to alleviate this you will have to fix your power window track by reinserting the entire length of the window back into the power window track.

Instructions

1

Remove all of the exposed screws on the door panel, around the door handle, and in the armrest using a Phillips head screwdriver.

2

Lower the windows down as far as it can go.

3

Disconnect the wiring harness from the power window controls and remove the armrest and door handle.

4

Remove the speaker from the lower corner of the door and disconnect it from the wiring harness.

5

Pry off the door panel using your hands or a flathead screwdriver wrapped in a shop rag. Start at the lower corner and work your way around until the entire panel pops off.

6

Loosen the brass mounting bolt on the lower corner of the door.

7

Use the hole where the speaker was and move the window until it slides into the power window track.

8

Tighten the brass mounting bolt.

9

Reattach the door panel to the door by pushing it until all the tabs snap into place.

10

Snap the wiring harnesses for the speaker and the power window control back into place.

11

Screw the armrest, speaker, and door handle into place with the screws your removed earlier and a Phillips head screwdriver.

How to Change the Brake Rotors on a 1990 Honda Accord

The anti-lock braking system on the 1990 Honda Accord uses three main components, in conjunction, to work effectively. The brake pads and calipers are responsible for squeezing against the brake rotor when the brake pedal is depressed. A rotor that is severely scored or warped will not perform as the driver expects. While it is possible to have scratched rotors resurfaced, any deep gouging of the rotor surface or warping will require immediate replacement.

Instructions

1

Jack up the Honda and support the vehicle on jack stands.

2

Remove the lug nuts with the lug wrench and pull the wheel of the corresponding rotor(s) to be replaced from the wheel bolts.

3

Remove the caliper bolts with a 13-mm wrench and pull the caliper from its mount around the rotor. Place the caliper on top of the steering arm or on an idle jack stand to prevent the weight of the caliper from damaging the attached brake line.

4

Remove the two screws on the top hat surface of the rotor with a Phillips-head screwdriver. The top hat section of the rotor is the raised center surface on the outside of the rotor.

5

Pull the rotor straight from the wheel bolts (outward). Spray the rotor with chain lubricant if it is stuck to the wheel bolts or steering knuckle (the component directly behind the rotor when installed).

6

Spray the new rotor with brake cleaner and wipe excess cleaner packing oil from the rotor with a towel.

7

Place the new rotor onto the wheel bolts, with the top hat section facing outward. Replace the two screws on the outer surface with the Phillips-head screwdriver.

8

Return the caliper onto the rotor and replace the caliper bolts with the wrench.

9

Place the wheels onto the wheel bolts and screw on the lug nuts. Remove the jack stands from beneath the Honda and lower the vehicle to the ground. Tighten the lug nuts with the lug wrench.
