    Good video. On my Honda the switch stuck and what it did was break a simple solder joint on the power going to the motor. Just a simple re solder and worked fine after that. This was also a newer widow motor only replaced within 6 months of the repair. The switch finally shorted and stayed on was the entire problem. The best and much cheaper fix is to just replace the junk switch with a three way toggle momentary switch. That way when it springs back to center, you know that no power is still going to the motor.

    Not clear where to put the paperclip and what's the purpose of it.

    Do you happen to see any issue with window can go down, but not going up? I understand the polarity will be reserved when going to opposite directions ( up vs down). but I can't understand how a window can go down (power and switch are good) , but not going up

      Sounds like a motor issue. The window takes a lot of force to go up, but going down it doesn’t need much force at all

    Does a new window motor/regulator in one have to be in the car to work? I plugged in my new one without putting it in and nothing. I already put in a new window switch too. (For driver’s front window on a 08 Xterra).

    Isn’t the power staying on because it has the automatic feature for the drivers window?

    What is the paperclip doing ... to ground?.. not clear

    • @elliottdl704
      @elliottdl704 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's just used so he can attach the clip of the circuit tester to the connector. Alligator clip won't attach to it otherwise. It doesn't matter if it's attached to the ground or the power. It's just testing for a completed circuit.

    Hi,before i start ripping panel off..let me first ask you this ... i have a 2001 silverado and the driver window still works fine,but when i try to put passenger window down it sounds like a relay clicks inside the passenger door... i am original owner and have never messed with windows.... the passenger window has been used hardly at all,so the track and motor should be in way better shape than the drivers side... i drove this truck just me myself so i know... what could it be ? bad connection? is switch bad on that door? again it sounds like its trying to engage everytime i hit the button on my side or the button on that passenger door... just tell me what you think it is and i will start from there....thanks

      You need to look at the diagram that could be normal as it reversed polarity to do the opposite from opening to closing etc

      But what two points are you trying to connect? Is it two grounds, two powers, two other sockets, the same socket?? We didn't see, and I didn't hear you say. TY

    I have a 1988 Chevrolet Silverado c1500 2wd it has electric windows the driver side window works good . But the passenger side window want go down . This happened when I was replacing the door pins and bushing on the driver side . But when I was doing that the got away from me and fell to the ground . So any idea will help me . I usually don't get no response when I ask on TH-cam . But I thought I would try again .

  • @ivanang7211
    @ivanang7211 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Its just simple its just the power window relay. 2 possible location of the relay s located the fuse box at the engine bay or the fusebox underneat your dash board .

  • @derekthomasgriffin
    @derekthomasgriffin 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    A lot of these newer power windows have their own fuse somewhere in the line usually behind the dash. Don’t just check the window fuse and think that’s the only fuse to check.
    Edited: Refer to the vehicles electrical wiring diagram, usually found towards the back of the maintenance / overhaul / Haynes / Chiltons / Mitchell’s manual
