Passenger Side Power Window Problem

Robert_Nash · 11-16-2009, 12:57 PM

I've noticed one minor problem with my new roadster; the passenger side window seems to have a "logic" problem!

When you open the door and the window drops a quarter inch or so, it doesn't automatically raise back up when you close the door. In fact, if you keep opening and closing the door the window will work its way completely down.

Likewise with putting both windows down withe the key fob, both windows will roll down fine but if you try to put them up with the actual key in the door lock, the passenger side window won't raise.

The "one touch up" feature also doesn't work with the passenger window but thankfully, the window works just fine, up or down otherwise by using the door panel switch!

I'm going to try the "fix" (Problems and Fixes After Car Audio Installs )but if that doesn't do the trick l get it looked at in a few days.

Just thought I'd throw this out there in case anyone else taking delivery of a new roadster notices a similar problem!

It's an old Z bug, inherited by the 370, unfortunately. Take it to the stealership for a warranty job. Good luck.

Nash, try reseting the memory functions. That usually it every time. Stealership...lol

windows down - hold switch down for 10 seconds.
windows up - hold switch up for 10 seconds.

Should be fixed.

Same problem happened to me after i had the speakers installed. Just reset it and it should be fine

bigaudiofanat · 11-16-2009, 02:34 PM

I agree with the reset. Try it that should fix the problem.

Robert_Nash · 11-16-2009, 02:38 PM

Thanks everyone...I'll be giving the "reset" a try tonight!

bigaudiofanat · 11-17-2009, 08:39 AM

Did it work?

Robert_Nash · 11-17-2009, 10:30 AM

Wow...impatient bunch here!

Yes...it worked...that's all the was needed!

bigaudiofanat · 11-17-2009, 10:39 AM

LOL actually not impatient just wanted to bump a thread because I did not want to see the spam thread. Glad it worked.

I had to reset 3 Z's yesterday because of this!

SmoothZ · 11-18-2009, 09:34 PM

So they never fixed the shitty window motors? Dammit!

Robert_Nash · 11-19-2009, 10:34 AM

This my fifth Z since 2004 and I've never had the problem before and it took all of 20 seconds to fix...I'd hardly call the motors (if it's even the motors themselves in the first place) "shitty".

I replaced THREE power window motors in my 2000 Z28 over a three year period...that's what I call "shitty" (and they sure as hell weren't inexpensive).

Was your Z a 2004 or 2004.5? Makes a difference..

1984 Alfa Romeo GTV-6 power window setup was an ugly thing. Complete with a serpentine cable that wrapped around about eight components. 20 seconds does not sound like a problem to me either, Robert.

Hey btw, I have two black lab/bassett hound mix dogs. You have to see them to believe them...imagine black labs with floppy ears and stubby little legs................
