Windows crank removal tool

I just bought the tool and it was quick and easy and worth every penny. I worked at an auto upholstery shop. We had several different types of window crank tools. We also kept a box of a hundred clips on stock. Excellent tip ty very much sir. I am pretty sure there is some kind of silicone sealant holding the clip in place because I have tried just about everything besides the actual tool designed for the job.

Thanks for the tips! Thank you so much for this. I spent a few minutes trying to pry off what I thought was a cover that would let me access a screw or bolt so I could just pull the handle off. I read this, grabbed an old t-shirt and it about 30 seconds, I had the first one off. Thank you so much! Well i must be useless cos i tried for over an hour using this technique and no chance at all.

The car itself is a Hyundai Excell. This so called trick is exactly that. A trick. Your email address will not be published.

On many makes of cars the ears of the clip stick slightly out so the tool can push them out, but Buicks of the late 30's through the mid 50's use a smaller clip that remains hidden from many tools. The one that Bobs Automobilia does work quite well.

Thanks for everyones help with my handle removal question. Now I know the preferred tool to use. Next question is from what side of the handle does it get inserted to slip the clip off Hope I explained this wll enough. You may have to try it both ways since the clip can be installed either of 2 ways. I always install the clip from the back side of the handle, but the guy before you may not have. Was going to attempt to remove the handles today but it started snowing. Going to have my son help me bring the door inside this weekend so I won't be up aginst the cold and can be more patient with it.

Posted November 17, Hi, When the crank removal tool is used, it allows you to push the retaining clip sideways off of the shaft of the window mechanism, and it pushes the clip just far enough to leave it hung-up on the inner edges of the slit on each side of the crank.
