### Condition

Some customers may comment that the door glass is out of the channel.

### Cause

The door glass sash channel may have come off the glass or the sash channel clip may be damaged.

### Correction

Caution: When working with any type of glass, use approved safety glasses and gloves to reduce the chance of personal injury.

Important: If the clip location is unknown, install the glass in the full up position and attach the new clip to the regulator and power the regulator to the full up position. This will set the clip in the proper position so you can mark its location.

Replace the sash channel following the repairs listed below.
