Disable Rear window

[djalexr]

Hi Everyone,

Normally the buttons for one of the rear windows are unresponsive...(the ones on the dash and on the door of the window itself)

However someone sitting in the back once randomly managed to get open it, after which it would not shut...after a while it did go back up again...

I want to know the quickest/best way of disabling that window to avoid any possibility of the irritating situation where the window is stuck open.

Also, any tips on what to do if the window does get stuck open would be helpful!!

Thanks a lot,

Alex

Take the door card off and disconnect the pin connector that feeds the window motor. It unclips and slides off.
Its a pain in the arse trying to replace the door mechanism for a new one if the window wont come down.

easier - just take the handle off and un-plug the window switch connector.

or just press the locking button in the centre of the dash, for child safety i believe. always have mine like this because my kids are always pratting around with the buttons in the back.
