rear windows

[doely85]

just spent a while looking through the 100's of threads about electric window problems. Mine just drop down on there own accord, at the mo i have propped them up on bits of wood to stop them sliding down any ideas as i couldnt find any information on this particular problem (i did try lol) Cheers guys

I'm guessing if it doesn't stay in place and keeps going down itself, then it's the regulator.

What happens when you press switch? Any noise of motor working or nothing?

[doely85]

yeh there is definatly motor noise will have another look at the weekend when i have time i just did a quick bodge because you can slide the window down just by touching it

My passenger side rear window has just started doing this. Bloody typical as I have a drivers side rear mechanism and motor in the shed. Like you I will be looking at this at the weekend. Let me know if you see anything on yours.      Cheers      Deano

It's just teething problems    Give it a bit of love every now and then and it looks after me very well....I feel 19 years old again every time I drive it

Hehe..yeah exactly, i've had to fix all my leccy windows..
It's a common problem but you chaps above i think what you'll find is that the lug on the cable has broken free of the plasic fixing in the window clamp.
It can be fixed, i tried and it lasted for a while but broke free again.. in the end i opted for a complete new regulator each time when the other windows failed..

[Deano2711]

If this is the case I have a spare window clamp and could fit this to my existing wire and glass.  I will let you know when I have had a look.      Cheers      Deano

I sell my spares for 15 quid each. Sods law says the one I need I don't have !!!!!
