Exclamation How to reinstall regulator spring

I have a 02 WS6 and my driver door window fell of the tracks, and I reinstalled it on the tracks, but cannot get the spring to stay on the regulator. Does anyone know how to put tension on the spring to properly install it on the window regulator so that when i shut the door the spring doesnt just fall off again? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Did you have to replace the spring or the regulator? My window just fell down and am trying to fix it but am having no luck.

the same thing happened to me, the window fell off the track, but this happened because that spring and that twist nut fell off. but i dont know how to get the spring to stay on. tension has to be put on it somehow but im not sure how to properly install it.
