Hi guys
I've got a problem with my drivers windows that I don't think is the usual problem with the clips.
A while ago I had a problem with both the front windows only working when they felt like it (passenger side was the worst) so I took the passenger door card off and attempted to remove the motor.
When Ithe looked like the windows cable was wrapped around the motor I just put it all back together and all the windows started working again.
Over the past couple of months the drivers window started playing up again and only goes down when it feels like it.
But now it won't work at all.
When I press the button to open the window I cold hear a click so I took the door card off to see if it would spring into life like the passenger side did but it didn't work.
While I was there i could hear the click sound coming from the motor.
I then put it all back together an thought I would see what happened if I tried to open and close the windows using the key in the drivers door.
So I yrned the key in the unlock position and the two rear windows and the passenger window went down but the drivers windows stayed put.
I then turned the key the other way and the two rear windows went up but the passenger windows stayed down.
I then repeatedly turned the key left and right and eventually I got the rears and the passenger to go up together.
While doing all this I also noticed that when I turned the key to bring the windows down, only the drivers door is unlocking (they all unlock from the fob).
I would put it down to duff drivers motor but when it does work it works really well.
Anyone know what's going on? ?
P.s
Sorry for the long post but it sometimes helps if you know a bit of history.
