Driver's Side Window Switch

[SKYWKR]

I'm trying to get my hands on a switch for the driver's side of a '93 R33. The motor seems to be working fine. I can't put my window down but if i try and put it up, it works fine. All the other controls on the the unit work fine ( ie. passenger window, door locks). Im having trouble finding anyone with a switch for sale. Any help on the problem would be great.

Cheers

i had the same promblem with mine and i have seen it on a few others, my switch wast the promlem i was the realy inside a little black box that was causing dramas i took it to the auto electrician and he fixed it for $70 bucks which is a hell of a lot cheaper than buying a new control or relay especially if it turns out that you dont really need one

frign relay box... i had the same problem, xcept my window would go down but not back up!

i think it was to do with loose soildering inside the box.

Buy a brand new one through nissan, but be prepared to pay around $350 - $400 for it

Does the switch feel fubar? doesnt click properly etc? if so id say its the switch. Had the same prob but wouldnt go up, went down fine.

Replaced switch with brand new unit, works a treat now.

open up the control box and put few drops of solder on the one that isnt properly soldered. will fix it up good.. i resolderd all my connectors on the circuit so id never have to do it again lol..

pretty sure thats ur problem mate. good luck.. u cud buy a solder kit for ~$15.. or u can fork out $350-400 for a new one.

So is the problem here the black box or the switch unit? If its the black box how the hell do u open it up.. it seems its plastic covering the entire thing

[igota33]

i broke mine a little bit to open it but who cares, you don't see it anyway. wrap it in a bit of electrical tape once you've soldered up the problem and bob's ya uncle. that WILL be your problem, no doubt about it.

sweet.. i took my whole window regulator out to replace it with another one only after realising the motor was fine... now i can't line up the damn bolts..

Hey ppl.

Looks like i have the same prob too, did anyone come to conclusion on what it really is the black box or the switch???

i did, it was the black box.. after all that effort of removing the window regulators it was as simple as resoldering 1 wire on the black box..

just pry it open where the plug joins to it and see if u can find any loose solders or joins without enough solder on them.. i found 1 which fixed the problem completely..
