Why can't the car window automatically go up and down?

The reasons why the car window cannot automatically go up and down: 1. The mud slot of the glass is deformed or damaged; 2. The screws fixing the lifter are loose; 3. The window lifter is damaged; 4. There is a deviation in the installation position of the guide rail. One-touch window refers to a system where the car window glass can be controlled to go up and down to position with one key press. The general solution for car window glass lifting failure: Turn on the ignition switch, pull and hold the window glass button to rise, continue to hold for more than 3 seconds after the glass rises to the top, release the button and immediately press and hold it to lower the glass to the bottom for more than 3 seconds, then repeat the rising action once again. After the initialization program is completed, the window lifting function will be restored.
I've encountered the issue of windows not automatically rolling up or down several times, which is quite annoying. The most common cause is a blown fuse, especially in cases where they suddenly stop working. Just check the fuse box and replace the cheap fuse. It could also be a faulty switch, like the master switch on the driver's side getting oxidized contacts from prolonged use. Once, my friend's window got stuck halfway down because the lift mechanism's steel cable had snapped, requiring a full replacement. If the motor is faulty, pressing the switch won't make any sound at all, and debris stuck in the tracks can also prevent the glass from moving. Remember, windows that have just had their power disconnected might need reinitialization: hold the window-up button until fully closed for five seconds, then down to the bottom for another five seconds. If you can't figure it out, just take it to a repair shop—they're more reliable at diagnosing wiring issues with a multimeter.
