Both windows stopped working

Recommended Posts

Trying to sort out my windows. Bother were working, but very slow. Now they have both stopped working. What's the options?

Thanks!

Try lubricating the channels using silicone spray, usually does the trick.

If not remove the panel check that you actually have 12v at the motors, dodgy earth or contacts could cause this problem. You could disconnect tha lifting mechanism and see if the window glass is free to slide up and down within its channels. Could be buggered motors, brushes that are worn, armatures etc.

Had many problems with various 'raddos over the years but never had any problems with electric windows.

Let me know if anything said above helps with your problem.

Cheers

Thanks for the tips! Had the door cards off a couple of weeks ago to check locking mech. Discovered there are no membranes on either door. Just waiting for them to come and will try to get as much done at the same time when cards are off. Is it simple enough to disconnect the lifting mechanism?

Thanks.

Quite a pig of a job, as usual with the corrado.. Bloody rivits securing the mechanisms too.

Start with the simple stuff first, sounds weird that both motors should be affected, i'd start checking voltages, wiring etc first before sodding around with the lifters.

I've never had door membranes fitted on the doors and i've had 4 'raddos, never had an issue with electric windows.

Let me know how you get on mate.
