Electric Windows
The first electric windows were introduced in 1940 as an alternative to the hand-turned windows. These car windows can be lowered and raised by pressing a switch or button. Electric windows are designed for convenience and safety.

How far are electrical services required to be from windows on a residential home in USA?
In the USA the National Electrical Code prohibits the "point of attachment" of an overhead electric service to be within 36 inches of an openable window, doorway, or porch... in other words they do not want a person to be able to reach out of a building opening and be able to touch exposed live power wires. I believe this rule applies to all buildings not just residential. The "point of attachment" is the area near the top of the building's electrical conduit where the building wires are spliced to the utility company wires. This is the only area where there should be exposed power wires. There is no distance limitation from windows and doors for the remainder of the electrical service that has no exposed power wires, such as the conduits, meters, panels
Where is the circuit breaker located for power windows on a 1997 camaro?
Either the fuse box under the dash, or under the hood on the driver side is another main fuse box.
Where is the electric window fuse in a 1994 Isuzu trooper?
The power windows work off a relay,it is the bottom one in the fuse box inside vehicle,right below it is a small button,push this in and it will reset itself.
This applies to electric or gas/diesel-electric vehicles. An electric motor can be instantly converted to an electric generator when polarities are switched. So, when you want your electric car to slow down or stop, you could have the motor suddenly turn into a generator. If the generator has very high electromagnetic flux, then it will act as a brake, and the kinetic energy of the vehicle is converted into electric charge in the battery.
Hence, reactive braking actually "saves" the kinetic energy for future use. Gravity Reactive Braking involves using a special ratchet for wheelchairs and stationary machinery, in which the kinetic energy is rapidly converted into potential energy; the basic principle is similar to a steep ramp, used to slow down a rolling cart.
Sometimes "reactive" braking means the brake system is mechanically designed to engage under certain conditions, such as excessive RPM.
The motor could be burnt out on the window. This is more than likely what has happened. The motor can be replace for a low cost.
The orange and white wire on a 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee near the driver's side door is probably a part of the seat belt sensor. If the driver is not wearing a seat belt when the car is driven, there is a chime that will sound. If this chime is not sounding, it was probably disconnected.

How do you take scratches off car windows?
A glazier can grind and polish scratches from glass, provided they aren't to deep.
At one time I think this was the only option, now they have products to polish glass and kits to repair and polish glass, ie: Janvil has both (the only brand I can think of just now, there must be others.

Is water damage from leaking window covered?
You will want to turn your claim in to make sure, but most homeowners policys will say the water must be 'weather' driven, or wind driven. A tree limb during a storm smashes a window, and rain gets in yes, there should be coverage. Old worn out windows, that have leaked for years, now have damaged walls, carpets etc, no. All losses must be sudden and accidental, and not slow deterioration.
Sounds like some kind of electrical problem. Start with checking your fuses.

What could be the reasons for an electric window not working when it is down?
It's probably the motor or the linkage assembly
Why wont the electric windows work on your 94 Toyota Carina?
The motor is probably damaged or the fuse is blown that powers the power windows.
the window motor is bad. order a motor . then have it replaced. easy to do your self. former Toyota tech.I would try replacing the switch that controls the problem window first. I had the same problem with the front passenger window of a 1999 Corolla. I thought it was the motor at first but when i put the switch from the rear window on it, it came up just fine. I don't know why, but it also effects the driver's control panel.
What is the difference between a Moon roof and Sun roof if any?
A sunroof is opaque (usually flush metal with the body color on the outside). This roof can either tilt open to vent, slide open to let in light, or both. It is called a sunroof because the opacity prevents the sun from heating up the vehicle. These have existed for quite some time.
In the 1970s, Ford introduced a glass sunroof that they named the Moonroof (actually, the American Sunroof Company, the company that made all domestic sunroofs and now known as American Specialty Cars invented it, but Ford was the first to install it). So to answer the question, a moonroof is a sunroof made of glass.
The problem is, the distinction is becoming lost as more and more people use it incorrectly. Most people today just consider any sort of hole in the roof a sunroof. But in the strictest sense, sunroof=metal, moonroof=glass.
Many think that a sunroof is clear and a moonroof is tinted. Nope, not the right answer. Others think that a sunroof will open but a moonroof will not. Wrong again. The truth is that a moonroof is actually a type of sunroof! For more info, I'm deferring to an expert, Marc Levinson of Donmar Sunroofs, who also operates the free sunroof information site.
Here it is: Just as a sedan is a distinctive type of automobile, a moonroof is a type of sunroof. Sunroof is the generic term used to describe any panel in a vehicle roof which can let in light and/or air.
The term moonroof was used in the 70's to describe a glass panel inbuilt electric sunroof, and is now used generically to describe all glass panel inbuilt sunroofs. An inbuilt sunroof is one where the operable panel slides between the vehicle roof and headliner, and is often powered but may be manually operated"
What will happen if you use the wrong coolant in recharging your central air unit?
It will not work right.
How do you remove the electric window motor in the drivers side door of a 1999 vauxhall vectra sri?
To get at the motor,you must first remove the door trim.Model dependant,you will probably have to lever off the speaker cover,door mirror switch and handle bezel.Remove 4 screws and unclip carefully.You have to unplug the motor and drill out the rivets holding it on.(10 ish)There is a single bolt holding the linkage support.It's a bit of a fiddle slipping off the mechanism from the window.You will need a pop riveter to fit the new unit.Adjust the channels,not too loose or tight before securing the bolt.Re-initialise the motor by sending window up and holding down the switch for 5 seconds.
Is there a way to reduce the amount of energy your central air conditioner uses?
The U.S. Department of Energy offers these tips: Set your thermostat at 78°F or higher. Each degree setting below 78°F will increase your energy consumption by approximately 8%. Use bath and kitchen fans sparingly when the air conditioner is operating. Check and clean both indoor and outdoor coils periodically. Dirt build-up on the indoor coil is the single most common cause of poor efficiency. Check the refrigerant charge. You may need a service contractor to check the fluid and adjust it appropriately. Shade east and west windows. When possible, delay heat-generating activities, such as dish washing, until the evening on hot days. Keep the house closed tight during the day. Don't let in unwanted heat and humidity. If practical, ventilate at night either naturally or with fans. Try not to use a dehumidifier at the same time your air conditioner is operating. The dehumidifier will increase the cooling load and force the air conditioner to work harder. [From Reducing Your Central Air Conditioner's Energy Use at The U.S. Department of Energy Website] I would also add that you replace all incandescent light bulbs with compact fluorescent bulbs. Incandescent bulbs generate a lot of waste heat that the AC must get rid of. You should only use compact fluorescent bulbs where it is dry and not in an enclosed fixture (an enclosed fixture will reduce the life of the bulb). Also, consider how much you will be using the light. It is better to replace only the bulbs that will be on for more than 15 minutes at a time. Also note that compact fluorescents cannot be used with dimmers. These bulbs not only put out less waste heat for the AC to get rid of, but they save considerable energy to light the bulb (as far as brightness, a 26W compact fluorescent equals about 100W incandescent bulb).
Your English is wanting - but if you are asking if the windows are controlled via a safety lockout switch then the aswer is yes. On almost all cars with electric windows the driver has a switch that can be turned on-off that disables all but the driver's windows in one position by disconnecting the electricity to those local controls.
