Description
Right rear window regulator mechanism for Citroën C5 01-07
This electric right rear window regulator is a direct-fit replacement designed for Citroën C5 first-generation models (01-07). It restores smooth and reliable up/down movement of the rear right window, eliminating common symptoms such as slow travel, grinding noises, window slippage or failure to hold position. The part is often searched by its product code 922467, making it easy to find for workshop professionals and DIY enthusiasts stocking parts for routine bodywork or electrical repairs.
The unit is suitable for mechanics and competent DIYers who perform door panel removal and light electrical work. As an OEM-style electro-mechanical regulator it includes the regulator assembly and motor interface needed to operate the rear right window. Typical replacement scenarios include worn motor brushes, frayed cables, broken plastic guides or seized sliders that prevent the glass from moving correctly.

Installation Recommendations
- Disconnect the vehicle battery before starting to avoid short circuits during motor connector work.
- Remove interior door trim carefully to avoid breaking plastic clips; keep screws and fasteners organised.
- Support the glass before detaching it from the old regulator (use suction cups or a helper) to prevent dropping or chipping.
- Disconnect the electrical connector and unbolt the regulator assembly. Transfer any reusable clips or guides if required by the design.
- Fit the new regulator, loosely fasten mounting bolts, align the glass and fully tighten fasteners, then test the operation before reassembling the door trim.
- After installation, cycle the window a few times to ensure smooth travel and proper alignment; adjust regulator mounting if binding occurs.
Common Causes Of Failure
- Worn Motor Brushes Or Burnout: Repeated use can wear motor brushes or overheat the motor, causing loss of power or intermittent operation.
- Damaged Cables Or Pulleys: Cable-driven regulators can suffer cable fraying or derailment, which results in uneven movement or total failure.
- Broken Plastic Guides Or Clips: Aging plastic components inside the regulator wear or snap, allowing the glass to drop or jam.
- Water Ingress And Corrosion: Moisture entering the door can corrode electrical contacts or seize mechanical parts, accelerating failure.
- Misalignment Or Impact Damage: Door impacts or incorrect previous repairs can bend tracks or misalign the mechanism, causing premature wear.
Installing a new regulator typically resolves noise, slow movement and stopping problems. For best long-term performance, inspect the glass run channels and lubricate guides with a silicone-based lubricant during replacement. Keep the assembly clean and ensure correct electrical connections to avoid arcing or intermittent faults.
