Electric windows on a 1992 Nissan sunny don't work but the fuse is ok?
tell me about it lol, I have a 93 Nissan sunny that I have had for years very reliable. Unfortunately my windows went months ago. I have had a couple of mechanics look at it, and the general answer is that the "switch has gone what ever that means. I have been on eBay to see if I could find one, no luck so far....my car is an automatic sunny so I don't know if there is a difference between the fittings in a manual or auto. Anyway if you hear anything first please let me know what you find out and I will do the same
This wouldn't be on a farm would it? 1000' line would need it's own utility pole, and transformer.
P.S. While this question has been answered I would just like to tell the person who asked this question that this is one of the most pointless questions ever and I sincerely hope that they won't ask ones like this again. Thank you for your time.
actually it's not a pointless question at all. when the motor burns out the window does not move and if you don't have the time or money to immediately replace it then you need to manually get the window up so that it doesn't rain in your car.
Why don't power windows sunroof wipers and interior lights don't work?

Dear Sir, The problem is most likely the switch on the passenger side has gone bad. You might want to be sure that your WINDOW LOCK button is not on. It is on the driver's side control panel located on the door. i have to go for the switch as well. i like both responses, make sure the lock is "off" before replacing the switch.

How do you fix a drivers side automatic window that will not go up on a 1998 Nissan Sentra GXE?
It needs to be checked out but probably needs a new motor.
If the DRL's flicker, then go out, It's likely the BCM. My 2002 SL2 had the same issue.
On my 03 Vue, I have found that every time a low beam burns out, the good bulb and the DRl light on the dash flash repeatedly upon putting it in gear and then it will shut the good bulb off untill the bad bulb is replaced. After that they operate as normal.
How do you fix your Driver's Side automatic Window It went down but won't go back up?
There are a few different things you can try. One if the window came off track, you will need to either take apart the door interior to get inside. Be careful not to break off any of the tabs. Prior to do thing though, try to figure out what went wrong - does the motor still work, are the gears still working or have they been ripped up. If its only off the track and you can somehow get a pair of pliers down to pull up the window you might get lucky and get it started. Test it by rolling it down part way. Hope this helps a little.
How do you fix off track power window for 2001 oldsmobil intrigue?
If the glass has detached from the clips/feet/whatever-you-call-them that hold the window glass to the rest of the assembly, you can re-glue it. You will have to clean off as much of the old glue as possible, then use a glue made specifically windows and situations like this - I think it is urethane based, and should be available at auto parts stores.
Do this with the window up, and make sure you have everything in exactly the right place, operating the window to make sure. Once it is in place, leave the window up for at least a day or two to be sure the glue sets properly. A window being "off track" is often a case of the glue that bonds to the the glass simply wearing out over time and with use.
How do you replace the drivers side window on a Chevy Cavalier?
Remove the window crank, if applicable. There is a tool for this that is available in auto parts stores.
Remove the interior door panel. There are screws along the bottom edge of the panel, up the sides, and in the door handle. There might be one where the mirror knob comes through, I think you have to take that out too. There is a tool that pops these push-in tree plugs that hold the interior skin to the door, in a pinch you can pry them out with two flathead screwdrivers on either side of the plug.
Unplug the power lock switch, if applicable.
Place the window crank back on the cam without the spring installed. This will enable you to remove it again easily. Crank the window into is fully lowered position.
You will find screws that hold the glass to the regulator (the piece that moves the glass up and down). Remove these.
Take a shop vac and clean out all the broken glass, if you have broken glass to remove.
Insert the new window between the window moldings. Be sure to align the edges into the track as you lower it into the door. Line up the bottom of the window into the regulator and slide the rearmost edge into the rear track firmly.
Tighten the bolts that hold the glass in the regulator, but DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN OR THE GLASS WILL SHATTER IN YOUR HAND.
Test the operation of the window with the crank on, and then reassemble the door.
How do you repair an electric window that goes down but not up?
Most likely the problem is the control switch assembly. Just pop it out carefully using a flat screwdriver and replace. I recommend a used part from an auto recycler.

Replace the seat.
I just Replaced the Motors underneath the Driver's side seat, they are all connected to the rails which your seat moves on, they can also be removed from the seat itself. replace the whole unit with the rails. there are two bolts on the back of the seat holding it down and the front just slides right out of the slits in the floor of the car.

How do you fix a 2000 Honda Civic window that won't go up all the way and that fell off its track?
Okay, I found the answer. Apparently, all civics 1997-2000 have this problem. The window suddenly won't roll up all the way. If you look down into the door you'll see that it's fall of the track. You can take the door panel off and put it back on track but from what I hear it'll keep happening occasionally. So the solution is to replace the window regulator. Honda is the only one that carries it. The part they sell has been re-made so this problem won't happen with the new part. It cost us $67 and it was going to cost an additional $113 in labor too. Instead we bought the part and the 2000 Honda civic service manual and replaced it ourselves. It took about 1 1/2 hours and we are NOT very car savvy. Here are some instructions I found on the net, but we followed the service manual instructions. There are pictures in the service manual.
REPAIR PROCEDURE:
1. Remove the door panel. Refer to section 20 of the 1996-00 Civic Service Manual.
2. Remove the armrest bracket, then pull down the plastic cover to gain access to the window regulator.
3. Carefully move the glass until you can see the glass mounting bolts, then loosen them. Slide the guide rearward, remove the glass from the guide, and carefully pull the glass out through the window slot.
4. Check the year and VIN. a. If the vehicle is a 1996 or 1997 within the affected VIN range, replace the window regulator. Go to step 5. b. If the vehicle is not a 1996 or 1997 within the affected VIN range, go to step 8.
5. Remove the two roller guide bolts and the two rear regulator mounting bolts; then remove the front regulator mounting bolts.
6. Disconnect the power window motor connector, and detach the harness clip (it applicable); then lift and remove the regulator through the opening in the door.
7. Install the new regulator in the door, then loosely install the two rear mounting bolts and the two roller guide bolts. Do not tighten the two front mounting bolts yet. Go to step 9.
8. Loosen the window regulator's two rear mounting bolts, two front mounting bolts, and two roller guide bolts.
9. Inspect the glass run channel: a. If the run channel is not sitting in the window channels properly, reinstall it. b. If the run channel is damaged, replace it. Refer to section 20 of the appropriate service manual. c. If the run channel is sitting in the window channels properly, go to step 10. NOTE: If the run channel is sitting in the window channels properly and the window regulator was not replaced, disregard this service bulletin and follow normal troubleshooting procedures.
10. Reinstall the glass in the door, but do not tighten the glass mounting bolts. Reconnect the power window motor connector, and temporarily reconnect the window switch (if applicable). Raise the window about 100 mm (4.0 in.) from the fully lowered position.
11. Push the glass toward the rear of the door, and have an assistant tighten the two glass mounting bolts, the four regulator mounting bolts, and the two roller guide bolts.
12. Loosen the front channel mounting bolt and nut. Push the front channel toward the glass, and tighten the mounting bolt and nut. 13. Check the window for smooth operation, and check for gaps between the glass and the run channel with the window all the way up. a. If the window does not operate smoothly, or if you see gaps between the run channel and the window, loosen all the mounting bolts, and repeat steps 10 through 12. b. If the window operates smoothly and you see no gaps between the run channel and the window, reinstall the plastic cover, the armrest bracket, and the door panel.
How to put drivers side power window back on track?
you cannot put the window "back on track" the window regulator failed and will need to be replaced, good luck.
What kind of lame answer is that? Yours might have been - not everybodies is.
I have a 93 Honda Civic LX with the same problem. I had everything replaced and nothing worked. I took it to a very good electrician and he figured out the problem for me. Its a connector that connects the Master window switch to the rest of the car windows. Mine had moisture damage so it worked on and off and only with certain windows. But the rest of the window switches operated the windows fine. It should be in the door panel/hidden around the door hinge.
