How to Restore Non-Functional Power Window on Passenger Side?
2 Answers
Clean the dust inside the guide channel, and remember to wrap a wet towel around the screwdriver tip during cleaning. For aged sealing rings and guide strips, purchase a bottle of lubricant and apply it inside the glass guide channel to effectively improve the condition.
I just had an issue last week where the passenger side window wouldn't go up, which was really annoying. At first, I thought the button was broken, so I tried the switch on the driver's side, but that didn't work either. I opened the fuse box in the engine compartment, located the window fuse according to the diagram, pulled it out, and saw it was blown. I immediately replaced it with a new one. Testing it again, there was still no response. Then, I checked the wiring inside the door, tightened any loose connections. Finally, I suspected that dust or small stones might have gotten into the window track, so I cleaned it and manually helped the window go up and down a few times. It finally started working again. If that hadn’t worked, it might have been a motor failure or the anti-pinch system activating, which would require a professional mechanic to handle. During regular maintenance, remember to lubricate the tracks and check the wiring periodically to avoid such issues. Don’t forget—safety first! A malfunctioning window on the highway can be quite dangerous, so resolving it quickly is key.
