Window regulator
I`ve been having fun with drivers window regulator. It had a broken cable.
Had a brainwave and noticed that Bicycle brake cables are the same size.....nothing much to lose......got a pair.....used some swaging equipment at work......didn`t have the copper swage ends to suit the cable but tried it anyway......worked a treat......was very proud of my cheap fix......then the swage pulled after a week or so.........back to the drawing board !........saw on this forum about the kits on e-bay.............I bought one for 20 quid......I couldn`t believe they use engineering strenght epoxy to fix the cable ends.
Followed the comprenhesive instructions to the letter......worked well........window dropped into the door at an inconvenient moment after a few days..........stripped the door in a rage............cables were fine ? The cable had come off the pulley.....it looked like I got the tension wrong.
came up with a means of preventing the cable from coming off the pulley......refitted it , didn`t realise the window was out of the rail...operated it , there was a bang as the cable pulled thro the plastic slider block and the cables are still fine with the swages still securely attached...Wow some adhesive !!! ......now I have a broken slider block !!......groan !!......looks like a trip to the scrappie.......does anyone know if the Series 1 regulators fit the Series 2 xantia ? . ......Rgds......dannyboy.

Danny,
On the Drivers door NO, as the S2 has anti pinch built in and its built into the motor and uses a completely different plug and motor arrangement.
All other doors are the same.. It seems S1's are better with thicker cableing,. ive a pile of S1 regulators, front and rears!

Thanks citroenXM, I had my old my old S1 for 7 yrs and 100K ( up to 180K ) and the window winder never gave any problems.
I`ll have one more go at fixing this slider block , no doubt the scrappies will have a bit of a demand on S2 drivers regulators.
