Nearside Front Window

[farmgirl]

For some reason my nearside front window won't shut properly, it keeps wanting to drop down about 4 inches. It's happened before and when I took it to the garage I saw them undo the battery cables and re-set it. I'm sure I could do it myself if anyone could tell me exactly what to do. Thank you.

To reset the window anti pinch you will have to disconnect the battery for a few seconds then reconnect.

 

Once the window is wound all the way down you wind it up (suprise suprise), it will go up in stages so you have to keep pressing the button every time it stops.

 

When it gets to the top of its travel, providing there isnt anything else wrong with it you should be able to hold the up button for about 5 seconds....this will reset the anti pinch position and should operate normally from then on.

 

If there is a problem with the window regulator it may stop you doing that and you will still have the problem......you will need to do it with all your windows and then reset your clock.

 

Now for the warning:

I did one of these once, set everything up and then found the car wouldnt start.

 

If that happens close the doors (key in hand), wander round to the front passenger door and operate the locks using the key blade. Then back round to the drivers side and open door using blade.

 

The car should start.

 

If the remote control looses its memory, put key in ignition, turn it to the position before cranking and press the locking button on the remote for 10 seconds. Remove the key and......................

 

....................wait 2 minutes.................

 

try to resist the urge to press it and see if it works because the car is trying to save the programed key in that 2 minutes, you'll just make it take longer.
