my front two windows are stuck in the down position... i was driving with them down, then wanted to put them up and they just didnt go... everything else works perfect, even the back windows... any ideas?

 

get in the panel and check to see if there still connected. but first run trough the fuses real quick..

 

i concur, check ALL fuses, then check the window harness


also, check the passenger side window button

 

I have had the same problem and have found a way to get the windows working again. Turn the power on, open door hold window switch up then slam door(not too hard) and the window will roll up. I have done this a few times and it always works. Good luck.

I just had this problem on my Maxima. I went to lunch and rolled down all the windows. Once I got to the restaurant, I clicked auto up on the front windows and rolled up the rear windows. All went up except the drivers side. Not 10 minutes before it rolled down fine but now it was dead in the water. I tried everything to get the window up and finally left it frustrated. I got my lunch and drove back to work. I hopped on the org and after just a few minutes of searching came across this. I went outside and tried it and the window went up immediately like nothing was wrong.

I still don't know if this is a electrical, connection, or motor problem.

 

Does using the key work?

 

Sounds Like my problem, talked to a friend of mine (he does body work for a living). For my problem, it was the motor. I bet your problem is the same, you can get it working again by beating on the door where motor is mouted but soon it will stop and never work again. You should get a ready to install a new one.

 

Well can you roll up and down the rear windows. If so your master switch (switch panel on DS door) is good. Do you hear the motor trying to roll up the window? Just take the panel off and take a test light and see if there is power going into the connector for the window motor.

 

actually, this works with most makes.


when you get a dead spot on the commutator, usually aruond a higher load or lower speed point, like an upper or lower stop, sometimes the motor just needs a bit of a jar to get it up. itll probably happen again, have it/them replaced.

 

Commutator..... I know exactly what that is in an electric motor, but we may be the only two that know this.

 

lol...


for those who dont know... its the part where the brushes make contact
