What Causes the Failure of the Driver's Window to Roll Up or Down?
1 Answers
Reasons for the failure of the driver's window to roll up or down include damaged wiring, motor overheating, aging rubber seals, and loss of initial data. Damaged Wiring: If there is a burnt smell or unusual noises inside the door panel when holding down the window button for a long time, it is likely that the window lift motor components are damaged, and immediate repair at a service center is necessary. Motor Overheating: To protect the power supply circuit, most window lift motors are equipped with an overheating protection mechanism. If the components overheat for any reason, the motor will enter an overheating protection state, causing the window to fail to roll up or down. Immediate repair at a service center is required. Aging Rubber Seals: The inability of the window glass to roll up or down is often caused by mechanical jamming. Simply cleaning the guide rails and applying some lubricant can resolve the issue. However, if the problem is due to aging or deformation of the rubber seals, new seals need to be replaced. Loss of Initial Data: Disconnecting the battery or the power or ground wire of the window control module during maintenance of other systems can cause the loss of the window's initialization data, leading to the failure of the window to roll up or down. In this case, the power or ground wire of the window control module needs to be reconnected.
