Step-by-step instructions for installing power windows on a Lada Granta prepared by specialists from the online store drivebox.ru.
Installation of window lifters in the doors of Lada Granta
— Before starting work, you must read the operating instructions for the vehicle and additionally installed equipment and find out the possibility of disconnecting the battery, as this may affect the operation of the on-board computer, the settings of audio equipment and other devices.
— We remove the battery terminal, set the car to the parking brake, prepare the necessary tools and materials.
To carry out the work we will need a trace. materials:
Stage 2. Dismantling a mechanical window regulator for subsequent installation of an electric window regulator (ESP).
Stage 3. Installation of ESP in the door.
To do this, we use the mounting elements on which the mechanical window lifter was attached.
Stage 4 Installation of control units.
We cut holes in the door trims for installing power window control units, having previously marked the cut locations. For this we made templates from cardboard.
Installation of power window control units on Lada Granta
Stage 5 Wiring installation.
We lay the wiring from the window regulator into the car's interior. We did not use a ready-made tourniquet due to its absence. The tourniquet was made by hand. Our recommendation is to entrust this operation only to professionals. We will not show the process of making a wiring harness in detail in order to protect you from mistakes that could lead to a negative result. A cable duct (alarm corrugation) was used to conduct the harness from the door to the salon. Holes were made in the door plugs and door pillars and the ends of the cable duct were inserted. For clarity, we used blue electrical tape when making the wiring.

Wiring for power window on Lada Granta
Many owners have noticed that the Lada Granta liftback does not have power windows (ESP) from the first days of operation. This problem is also typical for the sedan body. We decided to look into the main reasons why power windows do not work.
Removing the front electric windows of the Lada Granta
You will need: slotted and Phillips screwdrivers, a “10” wrench, removing the door trim.
Scheme 1. Fastening the front ESP.
1. glass guide fastening nut; 2. nut for fastening the gearmotor; 3. glass holder bolt; 4. block with electric drive wires.
First you need to remove the Granta door glass ; to do this, you need to lower it to its lowest position. Further:
- Remove the door trim mounting bracket by removing 3 bolts.
- Remove 2 bolts while holding the glass.
- Remove the front door glass by lifting it up and turning it in the door opening.
To remove the Lada Granta power windows you need:
- Unscrew the 8 nuts securing the glass guides, as well as the 3 nuts securing the window lift motor to the inner door panel.
- Remove the window lift mechanism assembly with the gear motor from the door cavity.
Installation is carried out in reverse order.

Lada Granta SETUP › Logbook › Electric windows on Standard. All at once.
With the arrival of spring, I quite clearly felt that I no longer wanted to lower and raise the windows with my hands. I want to push buttons. This means that it’s time to install electric windows. To drive just like a white gentleman. Want
ESP is not harmful. Put
– not so difficult. The Drive is full of entries. Ready-made sets of rack ESP “Granat” and “Forward” are sold. There you will find the mechanisms themselves, wiring, and buttons. And even instructions for connecting.
But we are not looking for easy ways.

Installation
For installation, no special fixtures, instruments or other equipment are required. The entire installation process is trivial and will be simple for any male person. The main thing is to have desire and skillful, masterly hands. Before starting the installation, you need to purchase a five-pin standard relay for VAZ car models in advance. Then the door closer itself is installed; all you need to do is run a wire under the door trim and that’s it. But the most important role here is played by the alarm system, since a free open channel comes from it, to which the automatic glass closer system is connected.
Through this signaling channel, a negative pulse is sent, which polls the sensors.
When you have already reached the finish line of installing the closer, you must disconnect the negative power cable from the battery . This is a kind of protection against short circuits that can occur and damage the entire electrical wiring of the car. These actions must be completed without fail.
The next step is to remove the door card from the driver's door. When removing, you need to act carefully so as not to damage or deform it. If it is not available, then it is better to buy hedgehog clips in advance. The new ones are better, there will be no worries about poor fastening.
After this, the connectors are removed from the power window control module in the Lada Granta model.

The procedure for replacing a window regulator on a Grant with your own hands
So, the first step is to complete several preparatory steps, without which it is impossible to get to the structure itself.
- Remove the front door trim
- Unscrew the bolts securing the glass to the lift bar
- Disconnect the power wires from the window motor
Next we perform the following steps. Using a 10 mm socket, unscrew all the nuts securing the trapezoid to the door. They are clearly shown in the photo below.
There are 11 such nuts in total.
When everything is unscrewed, lightly press on each of the lift studs so that it moves inward.
Then, by simple manipulations with the trapezoid, you can pull it out together with the motor.
We thread the motor through the same hole in the door and remove the remaining part of the Granta window regulator, as is clearly shown below.
If you have any questions about further repairs or replacing the motor itself, then the video review below will show and explain everything in detail.
Main causes of failure
Most likely the power window fuse is at fault.
The angle is not good, but this is exactly what the mounting block looks like when you look at it from above
From the situation you described, it follows that the fuse is to blame. There are enough symptoms and prerequisites for its breakdown. First, you raised one glass, which is already good, since raising both windows at the same time is not recommended due to the increased load. Then they started to lift the second window, and the fuse burned out.
If one of the glasses works, then the fuse is good.
The button is broken
The power window buttons in the Norma configuration usually do not cause problems
If only one of the two or four power windows does not work, depending on the configuration and equipment of the car, then the problem is most likely in the button or in the wiring to it. It is necessary to remove the front door trim and ring the buttons, you can also look at the voltage on them.
Front passenger window button
Motor failure
Appearance of the new motor (purchased to replace a broken one)
The window lift motor on the Lada Granta rarely causes problems. This part is reliable, but it can also fail. You can check the motor by applying voltage to it forcibly, that is, directly from the battery.
Power window doesn't work
Modern, well-equipped cars are always equipped with electric windows. The presence of such a function is no longer a special innovation, but, nevertheless, it is appreciated by numerous motorists for the convenience that this system provides.
However, during the operation of their car, car owners often notice how poorly the window regulator works, that it does not respond to pressing a button or periodically jams. To understand what happened to this element, you need to have an idea of the window lift system as a whole and the principles of its operation, and only then start troubleshooting.
Components of the window lift system
The power window system operates thanks to electric motors that are built into car doors and are responsible for raising and lowering the side windows. The electric window system includes the following elements:
☑ regulators (electric motors);
Operating principle of electric windows
The electrical control system, as a rule, has a trapezoidal design that ensures easy lowering and raising of the windows when the corresponding buttons are pressed on the main switch block, which is either located next to the driver or is embedded directly in the door cards. An independently functioning motor is installed inside each door, which is capable of working in two directions, raising the glass up and lowering it down. The power window system on modern cars includes special relays that control the electric current going to the window motors.
Reviews
| № | Positive |
| 1. | Vasily: after two years of active use of the car, there are no complaints about the body or its elements. The doors close easily and the locks are also in good working order. I try to treat equipment with care and carry out diagnostics in a timely manner. |
| 2. | Kirill: at 65,000 km I adjusted the hinge once on the right side. Obviously there was a bad fixation from the factory. There are no more complaints, I am satisfied with the build quality of the domestic car. |
| 3. | Ivan: for the first time, a Russian car turned out great. Of course, there are complaints about the technology, but they are insignificant. Those who are familiar with a screwdriver can easily eliminate defects on their own. |
| 4. | Gennady: I haven’t noticed anything like this in a year and a half of driving. All mechanisms are operating normally, lubricated and secured. |
| 5. | Dmitry: after buying the car, I immediately re-tightened all the moving elements myself, lubricated them additionally, and adjusted the gaps. I haven't had any worries for more than a year. |
| 6. | Alexander: I bought the car two years ago from a dealership, drove more than 80,000 km, no comments. There were minor breakdowns, but I fixed them myself. There were no major breakdowns. |
| 7. | Ignat: in a year and a half of active operation of the machine, I adjusted the hinges twice and lubricated them additionally. In general, there were no serious breakdowns. |
| Negative | |
| 1. | Kirill: I’ve only driven 75,000 km, but I’ve already adjusted the hinges, changed the seals, and ordered soundproofing for the interior. |
| 2. | Gennady: the dashboard is systematically fastened on the paving stones, I can’t do anything. I contacted specialists and repaired it myself, but it didn’t help. |
| 3. | Vladlen: there are more shortcomings in Grant than advantages; the manufacturer is in no hurry to eliminate defects. |
Conclusion The door lock is replaced only if it is damaged, deformed, or defective. The design of the mechanism is not complicated, and the operating principle is intuitive.
We replace the body element ourselves. At the preparatory stage, we check the availability of tools, lubricants, and rags.
The average service life of the locking mechanism is 120–150 thousand km.

How to disassemble the grant window lifter button
We are carrying out work to replace the window lifter mechanism. Operations for removing the window regulator are shown on the driver's door. The window lift mechanism of the right front door is removed in the same way. Set the glass to the top position. Disconnect the wire terminal from the negative terminal of the battery. Remove the front door trim (see “Removing the front door trim”).
We secure the glass with tape to the door frame. Loosen the tightening of the glass holder bolts (see “Removing the front door glass”).
By pressing the latch, we disconnect the wiring harness blocks of the window lift motor gearbox.

A simple way to increase the speed of the windows on a VAZ:
Specifications:
DC power supply with a voltage of 12V and a current of no more than 2.5A;
The glass lifting time is no more than 5 seconds;
Nominal lifting force 120 N;
Noise level 40 - 50 dB.
In order to unify and reduce the cost of the people's car, the designers of OJSC AvtoVAZ retained most of the parts (approximately 70%) from the Lada-Kalina car. And the electric door windows were no exception - Lada-Granta cars are equipped with an electric drive for raising and lowering the front door windows, which is completely similar in design and execution to the mechanism previously installed on Lada-Kalina cars.
If in previous VAZ models, on which a mechanical window lifter was installed, the usual gear reducer was used, then on the VAZ 2190 model there is only a drum with a hole into which the output shaft of the gearmotor is pressed.
The gearmotor itself is structurally made of a direct current electric motor, excited by permanent magnets and a worm gearbox.
Specifications
| See all advertisements in the archive |
| Rated supply voltage Raising (lowering) time, no more than Nominal force when lifting Current consumption at rated force, no more Maximum force on glass Operating life | 12 V 5 sec 120 N 7.5 A 200 N 30,000 cycles |
The power window operation mode is short-term. After ten lifting and lowering of the glass in continuous mode, it is recommended to take a break from work for at least 10 minutes.
Changing the color of the Lada Granta power window buttons
As you understand by the locations of the reeds
But on the driver’s side (there are no sides here, only two in front and two in back)
The module is removed in the same way, but either with two screwdrivers or something wide (I didn’t remove it a second time for the sake of the photo. I actually removed it while removing the casing to find where these tabs are.)
Then we take them home. They are held in place by 5 latches (two on the side and one) I pushed a cap under each, and then pulled the 5th with a screwdriver and pulled it out
Don't lose these things:
They stand on both sides of the board in the slots
We see the following: The diode itself is circled
Let's solder it. Here it is on the tape side by side: DDD
Next, take a knife and remove the varnish from the tracks in order to increase the area. We tear off, tin, and weld the diode from the tape. Angled towards the larger part of the board
Yellow indicates the corner on the diode. This is checked by supplying 12V to the appropriate terminals. “+” is written on the board, but just in case I noted it in the photo.
It’s easy to assemble: put the main part in place, if the plates fall out, put them back in place. We take the part with the button in our hands and holding it by the body so as not to press the button, we simply snap it into place.
Flashing the immobilizer
As a rule, Priora is equipped with a standard APS-6 immobilizer.
This, as already said, is an optional procedure, but if the budget does not allow you to invest in a security system, you will inevitably have to deal with all this electronic “stuffing”. In addition to the power windows, the immobilizer controls several other systems of the car, even the rear lights. But the main problem is precisely that in the Priora car the immobilizer is structurally combined with the glass unit controller. Priora lends itself well to tuning. A solution was also found for the immobilizer. During learning, the immobilizer writes its code to a non-volatile area of the ECU memory, which is stored in a disabled state. To disable the immobilizer, you need to clear this memory cell in the ECU.
To do this, you need to disconnect the original wiring connector from the immobilizer. Next, you need to determine the type of ECU. The flashing method will depend on this. If it is a Bosch M1.5.4, you need to open it and install a specially prepared chip with a program for cleaning the ECU EEPROM in place of the standard one and turn on the ignition for a few seconds. For some ECUs, you need to download special programmers from the Internet.
How to remove the window lifter handle on a Grant
What you need to remove the window lifter handle
In order to remove and install a new window lifter handle, you will need to obtain:
1) Flat screwdriver;
2) A handle I just bought, complete with a washer and a latch.
No special pullers or rare tools are needed. That is why repairing the window lifter mechanism will not be prohibitively expensive from a financial point of view.
Important points
- It is necessary to remember that there are also plastic latches under the fastening screws of the casing. And after unscrewing all the screws, you will have to overcome the resistance of these latches, literally tearing the trim off the door. It will not be possible to pry these clips with any tool - they are too far away. So it is not uncommon for situations when, after removing the casing, half of the clips are broken. There is only one way out: have a set of spare door latches on hand;
- on cars with electric windows, control units are located only in the front doors. Therefore, when removing the rear door trims, you will not have to disconnect all kinds of wires from the connectors;
- The locking button has a left-hand thread only on the earliest Granta models released in 2022. On later machines, the threads became right-handed.
So, removing the door trim from Granta is not a difficult task. Even a novice car enthusiast can do it. And an experienced car owner needs no more than 10 minutes to deal with one door. The picture is spoiled only by the internal plastic latches, the breakage of which, it seems, has never been possible for anyone. But this is an “innate” design flaw that you have to come to terms with.

Common faults
There are many reasons why the window regulator on Kalina does not work and why the device needs to be replaced, but we will look at the main ones:
- The electric motor brushes are stuck, usually as a result of overheating of the brush elements themselves, which, as a rule, are not resistant to sudden temperature changes. Accordingly, as a result of heating the brushes, the plastic socket may melt. This will also cause the brushes themselves to lose mobility. If the malfunction has just begun to appear, you can knock on the plastic door lining several times to restore the unit’s functionality. However, over time, this method will no longer be able to produce the required result, so intervention in the design of the joint venture will be inevitable.
- The cause of the malfunction, which may require replacement of the joint venture, can also be the ill-conceived electrical circuit installed at production. The contacts themselves are not able to withstand the necessary load that is placed on them. The SP system may fail due to the fact that the electrical circuit is not supplemented with a unloading relay. So in the event of a breakdown, it often happens that the car owner has to repair not only the power windows, but also the control panel itself.
As practice shows, in most cases, repairing a unit is either completely impossible, or can be done, but with great difficulty. Accordingly, the best option would be to install a new joint venture (video author - Emilien Ok).
