R32 Gtr Window Sender Death. Drivers Window Stuck! Help!

[Sicarius123]

Hey Guys,

Posting this up for a friend as he doesn't have the net. His R32 GTR drivers side window sender has completely died. It has been a bit temperamental for about a week. The shop that sold him the car told him hitting the door trim where the sender is would get it to work when it got stuck, which has worked for a bit, but as of last night the window is completely stuck down.

Can anyone tell us which two wires we'd need to power directly to get the window back up, or have a wiring diagram handy so we can work it out?

Is this a common problem with 32's, and is there a common fix to the unit? Or just scrap it and find a replacement?

Thanks for quick replies.

Dan.

it is a common problem on 32's, the window switches seem to play up.

my passenger one stopped working, my mate opened up the switch and cleaned the terminals...all fixed

Any write ups around on how to fix it? We need to be able to lock the car up this evening lol.

Take the door trim off. Have a look at the window regulator and you will see a little motor connected to it. Unplug the white plug that goes to the motor. Grab 2 bits of wire/leads and hook them up to an old car battery, or a power source in the car.

Use the bits of wire/leads and stick them directly into the plug that runs to the power window motor. If it is making the window go down, reverse the polarity and the window should then go up.

It is simple enough and logic should prevail.

Thanks for that, he's coming over soon so we'll get the window up first, then see how we can go about re-soldering the sender.

Sounds like the same kind of problem Supra's get with dry solder on the speed sensor.
