This right rear window regulator is a direct-fit replacement designed for Peugeot 308 (T7) vehicles. Ideal for professional workshops and experienced DIYers, the unit restores smooth, reliable window operation and is often searched by part numbers 9680973680 and 9224E9. The regulator is supplied as the mechanical assembly; the electric motor is available separately if needed, allowing targeted repair and cost savings when the motor remains serviceable.
Technical Information
- Manufacturer: Stellantis / Peugeot
- Model: PEUGEOT 308 (T7) – Right Rear
- Product Codes: 9680973680, 9224E9
- Other Numbers: No Additional Numbers Available
Features And Function
The regulator converts the electric motor’s rotary motion into linear motion to raise and lower the rear right glass. It contains guide rails, cable or scissor mechanism components and mounting points engineered to match the original equipment. Proper function ensures quiet, even movement and secure glass positioning at all travel limits.
Installation Recommendations
- Preparation: Park vehicle on level ground and ensure ignition is off. For safety, disconnect the negative battery terminal to avoid accidental window movement and short circuits.
- Access: Remove the inner door trim and vapor barrier to access the regulator. Keep fasteners and clips organized for reassembly.
- Support Glass: Secure the glass in the fully up position with tape or a wedge before removing regulator fastenings. If the motor is present, disable power before manipulating the regulator.
- Removal: Disconnect the electrical connector (if motor present), detach mounting bolts and carefully release the regulator from the glass carrier. Note the routing of cables and positioning of guides for correct reinstallation.
- Fitting: Position the new regulator, loosely fit bolts, reconnect the motor and briefly reconnect the battery to adjust glass alignment before torquing fasteners to specification. Refit the trim and verify full travel and switch operation.
- Tools And Tips: Commonly required tools include trim tools, Torx or metric sockets, a ratchet, and a multimeter for checking motor feed. Replace any corroded fasteners or worn clips to ensure long-term reliability.
Reason Why The Part Most Often Fails
- Wear Of Moving Components: Plastic sliders, rollers or cable guides degrade over time and can seize or allow the cable to derail.
- Cable Fraying Or Breakage: In cable-driven regulators the wire can fray, stretch or snap, causing loss of control of the glass.
- Motor Failure: Although sold separately, motor brushes, commutator wear or water ingress may stop the motor from driving the regulator.
- Corrosion And Moisture: Water ingress in the door can corrode fastenings and mechanism parts, increasing friction or causing sticking.
- Impact Damage Or Misalignment: Door impacts, slam damage or previous poor repairs can bend guides or misalign the mechanism leading to accelerated wear.
Replacing the regulator assembly restores correct operation without replacing the entire door unit. Because the motor is available separately, you can inspect and replace only the failed component, reducing repair cost and waste.
