Help! Windows gone mad!

Recommended Posts

A couple of days ago I found that the windows wouldn't always go down. I could hear the motor starting but no movement. It gets worse. When I have the window partially open and try to open them more the window will only go up no matter which way I have got the switch pressed.

 

As if I wasn't hacked off enough it has now started closing on its own! Blasting along the bypass and they just start closing!

 

Any ideas or experience of this?

if you have go total closurer on a key fob and you have used the key to open the car in the last few days it may be the lock is sticking from lack of use and trying to close the windows all the time

happened to my mates corrado after his wife used it evey time he tried to up the window down it would go back up

 

 

may just be a faulty door handle micro switch try unpluging the handle behind the door panel

I don't have a full closure alarm so I don't think it is related to that. Could be the switch but it affects both windows. Maybe have to replace that first and see if it sorts it unless anyone else has any experience of this.

check all fuses for a blown one - might be a bad earth - swiches might be damp - i have spent 2 many hours fixing my winows lol - sounds the same problem so just check all fuses including the one at the top for optoinal extras , bet there is a blown one :)

Well, removed all the fuses one by one - no problems there.

 

Took out the door card, checked all the wires OK and intact, not snagging etc - no problems again.

 

Unplugged switch connector and reconnected, no problems. Sod it. Put it all back together and....

 

They work fine now! Thanks for the suggestions.

Naa you've got it all wrong...

 

I had the same thing happen on mine 2 days after buying it !!! I thought that I'd bought a lemon !

 

The controller behind the rear door card (drivers side), it will be that. Mine went down and stayed down (raining and wearing my suit !) I had to fiddle with the controller and it works again whilst messing with it.

 

Try that.

 

Cheers Mr R
