Where is the Jetta window regulator control box located?
2 Answers
Jetta window regulator control box is located above the fuse box, installed on the inner side of the dashboard. Below is relevant information about the Jetta window regulator control box: 1. Introduction to the regulator: The regulator is the lifting device for car door and window glass, mainly divided into electric window regulators and manual window regulators. 2. Introduction to gasoline engines: The Jetta offers two gasoline engine options: 1.4L and 1.5L. The 1.4L engine delivers 66kW (90PS) and 132N·m, while the 1.5L engine produces 81kW (110PS) and 150N·m. These two engines are paired with a 5MT and Aisin 6AT transmission respectively.
I've been driving a Jetta for several years, and the window regulator control box is usually installed on the inner side of the driver's door. That's the left front door. After removing the door panel trim, you'll see a black square box with electrical connectors attached, responsible for controlling all the window lifts. If it gets accidentally damaged, the windows may not respond to lift commands. I recommend not attempting to remove it yourself, as it might be tightly secured with screws, and pulling the wires could cause more trouble. It's better to have it checked at a professional repair shop—they can accurately diagnose whether it's a control box issue or something else, like poor switch contact. In terms of location, most Jetta models are designed this way, with variations mainly due to different model years; older versions might be positioned higher up, while newer ones are slightly lower. For daily maintenance, avoid letting moisture get inside the door to reduce the risk of control box failure.
