Rear driver side power window problems on 97 Malibu

[griff7373]

So my wifes rear driver side window quit working, I have the door apart and the motor and regulator in my hand. It looks like the cable got wrapped up and came off top pulley (what a great design) anyway the cable looks ok does anybody have any steps on how to reattach the cable to the glass and where both ends of the cable hook to I don't think I need to replace the part just wrap the cable back on spool and hook it up properly.
Thanks

I had the same thing happen to me. That power window design is alot more popular then you think. I remember looking at the mess and decided it was easier to buy one off the scrap yard for $50 then it was to try and rewind it.
