Marvel at the downward motion of the window. Repeat on other side, if needed. You sir are a star! You must log in or register to reply here. Users who are viewing this thread.

It was worn inside teh square hold allowing the square spline to slip round when under pressure Or, you can build up the rounded off square hole with Araldite, which i did last night. Tonight i carefully used a file and recreated the square hole I will let you all know tomorrow if this fix has worked - here's hoping that it does as it will save lot's of cash for people Ok, motor re-fitted and all working.
Certainly cheaper than a new motor! Thanks to those who commented. AC Flexing a golden cincture Mar 10, 5, Thanks for posting all that Pete. Just for reference there is an interlock for the boot and for the roof stowage compartment in the boot.
Do you have any pix of the motor and cog? Hi and good morning. Do you know where the interlock is in the boot and what it looks like??
Sorry, really stupid but i did not take any pics of the motor In short and for further clarity, it is the latching motor that resides under the rear seat. It is a real simple devise. On the top you have three cogs facing you when you remove the black top cover. This is held on by clips at the sides, so carefully prize this off. The front cog is connected to it by a middle, smaller link cog. The front cog is connected to a cam arm that connects to teh bowden cables that secure the latches on the toneau cover.
This cog, out of view until you turn it over has a sensor that ensures that the motor only turns through degrees. Right, remove the bowden cable, nice and easy, pull the stop adjusters out of the motor casing and then you can easily manipulate them out. Undo the three 10mm bolts that hold the complete motor caste assembly. Unplug the motor power cable and the sensor then the motor as a whole can be removed from the car.
It really is not that scarey and as the middle cog will fall out, it is simply placed on a bearing you may think that the cogs etc need to be syncronised in a set position but that is not the case. I will explain how you re-install in a bit. With the motor removed, you and turn it upside down and you will see another 10mm bolt. Remove this, this is the one and only bolt that hold the electric motor to the caste motor asembly. You should then be able to withdraw the electric motor from the caste asembly.
It is simply a square spline that pushes into a square hole that runs through the middle of the "problem cog" in the electric motor gear box. Once you have the electric motor removed, you can inspect the hole in the cog. It should be a tight fit and a true square. Mine was rounded off, so that as the motor tried to latch the toneau under pressure, the metal square pline simply was spinning in the elctric motor cog hole that shoudl have been square..
Remidy is easy but does require patience There are 3 screws that hold the gearbox cover onto the body of the electric motor, remove them and gently prize open the cover.
Remove the "problem cog" simply lifts out. Use arildite and on one nioght build up the bottom edge all the way through the and allow to dry. The next evening or when dry, turn the cog through degrees and repeat, so now you should have two surfaces in the square hold that are built up.
Take a nail board or suiteable file and with "patience" file out until you have a true square again. I thin smeared arildite again inside the hole in teh cog and on the spline one i had reassembled the electric motor.
Push the electric motor back in the square spline and replace the bolt. Unit repaired and re-built Allow to dry over night before trying to replace in the car Replace motor in the car, three bolts etc.
Lift the same window key to raise the window all the way up. On the same window that you just lowered, raise the key upwards to lift the window. Pull the button all the way up with your finger so that the window raises all the way up. Do not release your finger.
Hold the key for seconds after the window closes. Once the window is all the way up, hold the button in the up position for seconds. The automatic power settings for that window should be reset.
Repeat this process with the other window keys. Use the same time interval on each of the other window buttons to reset them separately. Method 2.
Spray the rubber trim with waterproof silicone spray if the windows stick. Get a waterproof lubricant spray and raise your window all the way up. Spray the inside and outside of the rubber trim around the entirety of your window. Lower the window and spray a little in the opening for the window.
An automatic window relies on a sensor to interpret when the window is in the closed position. Applying lubricant spray will reduce the friction, which will make it easier for the sensor to interpret when the window is actually closed. This will also lubricate your motor and reel, which will make it easier for the entire system to function smoothly. You can buy waterproof silicone spray from your local hardware or auto parts store.
Turn your car off. Look at the list of fuses in your manual to determine which one corresponds to your power windows. Either pull the fuse out or remove it with pliers. Touch the 2 metal needles to each terminal on your fuse. If the reading is less than 1, then your fuse is fine. If you need to replace a fuse, order a replacement from your manufacturer and push it into the fuse slot in your vehicle. Slide the cover off of the motor by removing the bolt in the middle with a wrench. This will expose the reel, which looks a wheel with spokes.
Inspect the reel for rust or blockage. The window should operate manually. You will have to hold the switch down to get the window down and hold the switch up to get the window up.

Sometimes the keys will lose its memory. You will have to re-sync the key with the car. Check your car manual most are available online to check for the procedure. Not Helpful 7 Helpful 3. Check the fuse, which should be in the dashboard or under the hood, check the owner's manual.
You can check the switch with a multimeter for continuity; it should make a beep when you press the switch put the black and red on the two contacts on the switch. In some cases it could be the body control module, but other things would stop working as well. You can take off the door panel and put a wire from your battery to the power window motor to troubleshoot. Not Helpful 10 Helpful 6. What can I try if the driver-side window is working, but the other three are not?
Check to make sure your window lock switch is up. Not Helpful 10 Helpful
