electric windows

[ljbinks]

hi all, i have a problem my passenger window has died there is no clicking of the motor nothing completely dead my first problem and i have only had the thing for a week

thats not a good start, it will be the window regulator, common fault im afraid.

If you can, take the door card off, and check the voltage with a multimeter and see if there is any voltage reaching the motor, could be a duff switch

 

[ljbinks]

does it cost much?

 

[cu51pra]

yeah it's about £200 mate

 

[ljbinks]

tell me you are joking

 

[flashbsd]

nope, dont be put off, ive never had the problem. But many on here have.

Maybe have a look on ebay for a window regulator.

 

[ljbinks]

it will stay broken i aint got any money now

its really easy to fix, i did it wit my rover. took me 30 mins to do
in fact i took it out, repaired the old one, and sold it after, aslong as the arm isnt broken its ok to repair. and u can get the actual arms for less i imagine, just look around!!

Ill be doing mine saturday. Dont think they cost £200 though, I belive martyn replace d his and cost £90 from the dealer

 

[Martyn]

Yea, its between 80-100 quid for a full regulator unit (includes motor, window mounts, etc).

Beware of those, you need the one for a 3 door car and the 12(?) pin plug.

Hi
I know that the window regs are a common problem but with them , dont the windows usually drop?
That is what I have known
But could it be a switch instead?
Sorry to but in...

i have tried different ways swapping switches around and disconnecting them but it is just dead i have power going to the motor
are the window reggs bosch by any chance?

 

[Forbez]

Probably, as they fail like the maf's! Hee hee!

 

[JKing]

my passenger window has stopped working aswell so need to investigate. both switches to it don't work so I'm fearing the worst

 

[ljbinks]

same as mine i have taken the passenger reg out and plugged it in the drivers side and still nothing so it looks like it is dead
oh and it isnt a bosch one

 

[revo20vtdan]

this problem is a night mare mines gone as well

 

[Arwel]

Same here.. Driver side though so its even more annoying
