How does one adjust the tension in the window cable. I cant seen to get enough slack to put the cable back after repair. It is still the same length but no matter what I do I just need another 2cm to put it back in place but I cant find any adjustment on either end of the motor.
I have wound the slider all the way up and down a few times and did get more cable but I cant get any more.

Help. Mike...

There is no adjustment, the regulator will have to be replaced.
