Diagram for connecting electric windows on a VAZ-2110


Electric windows are very convenient devices that are controlled by a special button and make it possible to lower or raise the side windows without rotating the previously used handles. Unfortunately, this option is provided only in some modifications of the VAZ-2110 car. Therefore, in this article we will tell you how to install it yourself and ensure maximum comfort in controlling the side windows.

Selecting window regulators for installation on a VAZ-2110

If you want to install electric windows on your car, you will first need to choose the most reliable device that will serve for many years without causing any problems. On the modern market you can find the following options:

  • traditional cable structures, which are relatively easy to install, but differ from others by not having a very long service life, wear out quickly;
  • strip devices that are not very convenient to use;
  • rack and pinion window lifters, which are deservedly recognized as the most suitable and reliable in operation.

When choosing devices suitable for your car, pay attention to factors such as:

  • the speed of raising and lowering the glass, which largely depends on the gear motor installed on the car;
  • the ability to use the device in the cold season;
  • noise level during product operation.

Taking into account all these factors, you will be able to choose window lifters that will not only work flawlessly, but also will not create any problems in specific operating conditions.

Kinds

Window lifters are devices that serve to move glass on windows and hold it in a given position. Today, the VAZ 2110 is available with quite a variety of window lifts, which differ not only in manufacturer, but also in purpose.

If we take into account the purpose, then devices can be divided into four types:

  • For front doors;
  • For rear doors;
  • For left doors;
  • For the right.

It is noteworthy that their design may be different, but they have quite a lot of common nuances.

Any of the listed window regulators includes several main components.

Component Functions
Gutters They are installed on the inside of the door frame. Their function is to hold the glass sheet in a given position
Rails They are mounted inside the door frame in a static position. Act as guides for moving glass up and down
Seal and damper Products made of soft rubber. They ensure that glass movements are limited downwards and upwards.

The design of any window regulator includes two main components - the drive and the lifting mechanism.

Drives

As in many other cars, in the case of the VAZ 2110 there are two types of drives.

  1. Electric. A rather complex set of elements, which consists of a drive drum or gear, as well as an electric motor with a worm gearbox built into it. This design allows you to raise and lower the glass at the touch of a button.
  2. Mechanical. The most simplified design, which includes several parts, gears and handles. To raise the glass in a VAZ 2110 using a power window lifter, you need to turn the handle clockwise. The drive roller takes on the required physical effort, so lifting is not difficult.

Lifting mechanisms

As for lifting mechanisms, there are several of them. For the VAZ 2110, various options are available.

Rack and pinion mechanisms

Mechanism type Peculiarities
Rack and pinion lift mechanism It was installed on the VAZ 2107, then switched to the VAZ 2110. The advantages of such a mechanism are its simple repair and operation. But the design is not particularly reliable; for effective operation, the rack and pinion device must be lubricated. Design flaws forced the developers to abandon it
Cable mechanism A more advanced system that eliminates the possibility of glass distortions. But the reliability is not the highest. The most attractive option for a cable mechanism is a structure made of galvanized metal. Their cost is 400 rubles. It is also worth paying attention to Metprom devices. Their current price is 300 rubles. Standard VAZ cable lifts will cost 250 rubles
Lifting lever mechanism These are the most advanced mechanisms available for the VAZ 2110. Their operation is based on the use of hinges. The design ensures silent operation. However, the mechanism is only available on electric windows

Electric glass lift

Rack and cable mechanisms are offered complete with electric and mechanical drives, while lever mechanisms are available only with an electric motor.

How to install and connect power windows on a VAZ-2110


The most preferred devices are rack type, so we will describe the installation process as an example. The connection diagram for the window regulator on a VAZ-2110 car is as follows:

  • remove the negative terminal from the car battery to stop the supply of voltage to the on-board power supply network;
  • we take the wires that come standard with rack-and-pinion window lifts and make a kind of harness out of them that makes connection easy;
  • remove the car mounting block, which will require unscrewing the self-tapping screw that secures the special latch;
  • turn the block over and carefully install block Ш1 of the pre-prepared wiring harness into the corresponding connector;
  • dismantle the door trim;
  • we pull the wires to the electric window drive. To do this, you will need to carefully pass them through the holes in the door itself and the body pillar on the desired side.

After this, buttons or keys are installed that will be used to control the power windows. Depending on your desire, they can be attached either to the door trim of a VAZ-2110 car, or to an existing control panel. In the first case, you will need to use an additional wire, which will allow you to equip the key backlight.

Guide on how to disassemble a window regulator

So, if you decide to replace the traditional window regulator in your VAZ 2110 with an electric one with a motor, gear unit and control buttons, then first find out how to remove the device. Only after you can remove it will it be possible to replace or install a new one.

Also, dismantling the window regulator may be necessary if it does not work and needs to be repaired:

  1. First of all, it is necessary to dismantle the handle, which is located in the cabin. To do this, remove the stopper located under the special washer on the same handle. Using a screwdriver, you need to move the latch to the side, removing the stopper from the plate. This way you can remove the handle itself. If it is tightly installed, it may be worth trying to pry it off with a screwdriver.
  2. Next, you need to remove the armrest handle of the VAZ 2110. Using the same screwdrivers, remove the plugs that hide the bolts that secure the handle itself. Use a Phillips screwdriver to unscrew them.
  3. For greater convenience, you can remove the trim on the handle of the side rear view mirror.
  4. After this, the door trim itself is carefully dismantled.
  5. Essentially, this was preparatory work. If you are repairing or replacing power windows with electric ones with a motor, gear unit, and control buttons on a VAZ 2110, then you need to gain access to the fasteners. These elements fix the device itself to the glass. This component is secured with two bolts; they are unscrewed with a wrench.
  6. Next, you can completely dismantle the glass or secure it in the system with tape, after which you can repair or install electric windows with a motor, gear unit and control buttons.
  7. The socket is disconnected from the slot, the nuts are unscrewed with a wrench, after which the window regulator is dismantled (the author of the video is In the Life Village).

Installation process of electric windows

In addition, it is necessary to install the power windows themselves. The procedure is performed in the following sequence:

  • temporarily remove the glass seal located on the inside of the door;
  • remove the glass, and then dismantle the window regulator fastening mechanism;
  • we install devices that will operate from an electric drive;
  • connect the negative terminal to the battery and check the operation of the new window regulator;
  • We install the glass in place and trim the door.

Connection diagram, restoration of functionality

To successfully repair a power window, you need to know the structure of the lifting mechanism and the principle of its operation. The window connection diagram looks like this.

  1. Mounting block.
  2. Ignition switch device.
  3. Power window switch for front right door.
  4. Power window switch for rear right door.
  5. ESPD gearmotor for the front right door.
  6. ESPD gearmotor for the rear right door.
  7. ESPD gearmotor for the rear left door.
  8. ESPD gearmotor for the front left door.
  9. Power window switch for left rear door.
  10. Power window switch for left front door.
  11. Power window on/off relay.

Features of connecting power windows


Unlike conventional mechanical devices, power windows are not equipped with traditional gear reducers, but with a special drum. The shaft of a DC electric motor is inserted into its hole located in the center. In this case, the motor is only a component of the gearmotor, on which, as we found out earlier, the speed and quality of raising and lowering the windows depends.

Before installing a new power window, you must select the correct device based on its technical characteristics, and also make sure that the product is in a fully folded state. Otherwise, you are unlikely to be able to install the product efficiently and ensure its flawless operation after connecting it to the vehicle’s on-board network.

Kinds

A window lifter is a device used to move window glass and hold it at the desired point. Currently, the range of window lifters is quite wide, it includes not only many brands, but also differences in target orientation:

  • front doors
  • rear doors
  • left doors
  • right doors.

Moreover, the design for each device will be different. But in each of the listed cases there are common points; each window regulator consists of:

  • grooves installed on the inside of the door frame, the purpose of which is to hold the glass sheet at a certain point
  • “rails”, which are statically fixed in the door body and act as guides for the movement of glass
  • seal, damper, made of soft rubber, limiting the movement of the glass sheet up and down.

In addition, any type of window regulator consists of two main components:

  • lifting mechanism
  • drive unit.

There are two types of drive:

  • Mechanical - consists of a simple set of parts, a pair of gears and a handle. In order to set the glass sheet in motion, you need to turn the handle clockwise (if you need to raise the glass) or counterclockwise (if you need to lower it). Physical forces are transferred to the drive roller, that’s the whole principle of operation of the mechanical device.
  • Electrical is a more complex set of parts. An electric window regulator consists of a drive drum or gear and an electric motor with a built-in worm-type gearbox.

Rack and pinion window lift

According to the lifting mechanism, window lifters are divided into several types. Moreover, in AvtoVAZ cars there are different design options for window lifters.

So, the well-known seven is equipped with a rack-and-pinion type device; by the way, the “ten” also has rack-and-pinion window lifters.

This option is good because it is easy to repair and easy to operate, but a serious disadvantage of the design is its unreliability. In addition, the rack-and-pinion type of device requires lubrication.

Cable (mechanical)

A more advanced design is the cable type, presented in the tenth VAZ model.

The positive point here is the fact that the possibility of glass distortion is completely eliminated. But, like rack and pinion mechanisms, cable mechanisms are also unreliable.

Although the price for them is not so high, window regulators made of galvanized metal, which cost about 400 rubles, and Metprom devices, which cost 300 rubles, enjoy a good reputation.

A standard cable window lift costs less, 250 rubles.

Power window

The new generation of mechanisms are lever ones that operate using hinges.

We recommend: Tinting of front windows is allowed - is it true?

Their advantage is the absolute absence of noise, but this type of device only works in conjunction with an electric motor, while the first two can also be presented in a mechanical version.

The tenth model is equipped with two types of window lifters: simpler modifications of previous years come with mechanics, and modifications of later years of production come with electric windows.

But since owners of the old ten are more common among motorists, then we will next talk about how to replace a mechanical window regulator yourself, but first we will understand the most common faults of window regulators characteristic of the VAZ-2110.

By the way, the electric window lifter changes in exactly the same way; all the grooves and fastenings are similar and will fit easily.

  1. What most often happens in the top ten is the grinding of the lift gear, which makes the device inoperative.
  2. The second reason is a cable break, which disrupts the entire system.

Problems can be solved by dismantling the device and replacing defective parts, or by completely replacing the window regulator, which would be a more correct and simpler option. Now let's get to work.
