Default '01 s40 Driver's Window Regulator

any help would be greatly appreciated!

the driver's side power window was stuck in the "down" position; i was able to manually push it back up and get it closed.

i've removed the door panel and in testing the window it seems like the motor runs fine; the window just won't go up and down. i've removed the 3 small bolts holding the regulator/motor assembly in place in the hopes of taking it out and seeing what was wrong, but i can't figure out how to get the assembly out from behind the door panel.

i'm missing a trick somewhere.

any suggestions on how to get the assembly out of the door panel and any thoughts on what could be causing the window to not go up and down even though the motor seems to run OK?

thanks so much in advance!

I've done a couple on other cars and it's always a PITA to figure out. Patience and a bit of cussing always helps. My hands have never finished the process without being cut up.

We brought ours to Volvo a few years ago and it cost about 4 hundred bucks for the new regulator and motor. I learned online how to do a jeeps last year for about a hundred.
