electric car window problems

Power Window Regulator Repair
As you drive up to the drive in window at the bank, you reach for the switch to lower your window and nothing happens.
The switch moves but the window does not budge. Not even a noise from the window motor can be heard which strongly suggests to you that the device is not functioning.

auto window regulator repairs

Sometimes electric contacts in the window switch can be worn, corroded or dirty. Try pushing  the switch with your finger hard and deliberately - if the window starts to work, the switch is the problem and will most likely need to be replaced.
After accessing the motor, try tapping on it with an object  (like a small wrench or a 3/8" extension) - if it temporarily works, the window motor will need to be replaced.
The repair tips I've shared here will NOT be found in any manual, but sometimes it is necessary to find specific auto repair manual information for certain procedures. Other times it's great to find an auto repair blog for specific repairs with pictures for free.
