Jesus christ I dunno what happened but my power window in the back left hand side is game over. I tried it out one day and it went "SNAP" and the window doesn't stay closed it falls down. I press the up button and i can hear the motor working but window is not moving.
I jammed some cardboard wrapped in black duck tape in between the door window and the seals to keep it from sliding down on its own :sook:

Any idea how much this would cost to fix? And has this happened to anyone else?

Dimi

pull ur door apart and find out what went. sounds like the motor is good but maybe the cable broke? when u find out whats broken just go to the wreckers and get what u need to replace the broken part/s. oh and take it with u (the broken part). shouldn't cost very much if u do that. but if u take it to a shop be prepared to faint at what they want to charge u:D

Hey man..

This happened to my gfs renault a while ago....its just the regulator...

you can probably find one at a wreckers pretty cheap and not that hard to do yourself...

Oh so it's the regulator? Hehe thanks guys for your replies.

I'll check it out.

Chuck, with her car, was her window falling down too? Like not sitting up the top?

yeah...the window slid all the way down and you couldnt power it up.....then if you lifted it up manually it would just slide back down again....so i had to sleep in the car for her guarding it with an axe cuz we'd been having break-ins....damn homebush...ahah :P


this is whats happening to you too right?

Yeah exactly the same thing! LOL damn homebush aye. Bastards.

How much did it set you back? Did you fix it yourself or got a place to do it?

the car was actually 1-2 months old when it happened...so it was fixed by the dealer for free...

do you know how to take your door skins off?

you get this fixed yet???

I got a rear passenger power window.

Motor, cable and the bracket the whole thing barring switch and trim

Let me know if u need / want it

Na haven't fixed it yet. How much you selling the stuff for mitsi guy?

Isn't it the regulator that I just need?

i paid like $22 at the wreckers say $30 or so with postage depending how much it is

So it's just the regulator i need is it? Or do i need more bits? :cry:

So it's just the regulator i need is it? Or do i need more bits? :cry:

pretty sure it is...

if you know how to take your door skin off....just take it off and take a look...

you can even just steal the regulator outta the white magna always parked outside your house...or the blue magna accross the street! ahahaah :P

Haha na man i' put black cardboard in between to hold it up so it doesn't slip down

But yeah, these storms are hectic i reckon they just gonna melt the cardboard away soon so I better get it done.
I thought i was going to have to replace the whole door or something that's why i left it for ages.

you better watch out for thieves then...cuz if someone sees that its only cardboard holding the window up they're just gonna whip that thing down and steal all your ****!

Damn you're right. Sometimes I forget that one window is able to slip down.

Hmmm i'll get it fixed hehe

'bout time...i cant believe you had the time to install a supercharger...upgrade the interior and exterior....and you leave you window pretty much open??!! ahahahah :P

Yeah you got a point there. Pretty neglectful hahaha

Poor car. Must be crying

haha nice work son! yeah I say just the regulator too :) cheap cheap for any places around your area like u-pull-it? takes 10 mins not even to change it over...

Yeah? So regulator it is aye?

Just take the door trim off and fix it from there eh?

Yeah man, shouldn't take you long at all, it took me not even 15 mins to take a window reg outta one car, and put straight into another... hardest part was putting the window back in without scratching the tint and that was easy!
