406 passenger window problem

HELP.

This is really getting to me now!!!

I bought a 406 2.0 HDI estate not so long ago, everything perfect except
passenger electric window only went up on the passenger switch and down on
the drivers switch. The problem slowly got worse until now it only goes up
using either switch.

I took the door trim off and removed the motor, again it only goes up on
both switches but is free to rotate so no seized motor, the window mechanism
is also free as you can easily slide the window up and down by hand.

Does anybody have any ideas?

Thanks guys.

Jerry.

 

Invest in the services of an auto electrician - I suggest you have no
hope at all of finding a fault like this yourself.

There was a quite different problem reported several times in this
group - the driver's window ceased operating correctly. The fix was
simple and worked for me - in fact the fault recurred and the same fix
worked again. Do some searching in this group for details - something
about holding the button down for 10 seconds after movement completed.
I often advise people to try searches - not out of grumpiness but
having learnt from experience in this and other groups. Any newsgroup
is a unique and valuable store of information and wisdom. this post is
an example.

 

Hi Ken.

Thanks for that, only problem is, how do you search for items that may go
back some time. I only just started using these groups and am not very
familliar with them.

Cheers.

Hello,

 

Hi Jerry,

You can use google groups - almost everything (excluding binaries (e.g.
pictures)) is archived there. If you go to www.google.com and click on the
link just above the search box labelled 'groups' it will take you to the
google groups search. You can restrict the search to particular groups if
you want.

Correct. In fact you should find a box at the top of this page
inviting searches in this group or all groups. This is very powerful.
If I want to recall a post I made three years ago I just put in my
name and one or two words on the subject matter or the year. Never
fails.
