Hello,

I have a problem with my driverside window: it does not go up when I push the button, However when I close the door, the window moves up a little, just like it is supposed to when the window is closed to seal. However, the window is not up currently and it still goes up and down a liitle. Does anyone know what this could be?

thanks in advance,

Damon

try reprogramming it. disconnect the battery; lower the window down all the way; then close the window & hold up button for approx. 10-15sec after the window is all the way up. do it for both sides.
hopefully that'll solve your issue unless your problem is mechanical, then you need to do more investigating.
good luck

My vert did something similar last year, it could go down but not up but it still maintained its window venting when the door was shut.

For me it turned out to be the metal cross bars that the window was attached to. They move with scissor motion inside the door. The cross bars were welded to a pivot point which broke. My mechanic removed the door panel and drilled out the weld and replaced it with a short bolt with locking nut.

never had a problem with that window since.

Hope that helps you
