Hey Guys,

Over the last few weeks I have been feeling my driver side window stick a bit and this afternoon it stuck on the way up and isn't going anywhere. From my quick search around the forum it sounds like this is a common problem.

Does anyone know someone in or near Newcastle that can fix it?

Or how hard is it to fix yourself?

Thanks,

Scott

Scott had the same problem on my RS4 and it turned out to be the switch in the door, bad contact but the switch was a nightmare to pull apart and re-assemble, all the little balls and copper rocker pads kept falling out. Eventually the window failed altogether and this turned out to be a blown connector in the 4 window switch in the drivers door but an electrician friend soldered it and no more problems, don,t know if this is any help but if you do tackle it yourself take plenty of patience pills

mate if you get stuck, try the guys at altapac in kotara.

cant fault them on anything yet, if they cant do it they will know someone who will

hope it helps

Cheers mate,

Thats a good call. I'm near kotara so ill check them out today.

Window switches are Hirohito"s revenge. Ask any Nissan driver. Touch wood, the Stag has never given trouble by all my R30 have shagged switches at some stage. Used to get from Nissan for $90 but now dont bother.

If the switch is stuffed an cant be fixed to get the window up a lead from a battery with probes and just go through the wires to the switch until the window closes at least you will have the security .

Looks like its the motor.

So now I have to source a new one.

Any ideas???

try Nissan first. make sure you get a part number for the correct motor (different door = different part number) and have it put through Parts Master to see if any models here use the same part.

if you do not like the price that Nissan quote, maybe try Jesse Streeter ("streeter" on here) as he offers a shipping service direct from Japan and is very good to deal with for anything that does not require a container for shipping.

Just make sure you have the part number for him.

Thanks Guys,

I ill let you know how I go.

Quite often the brushes stick...get motor out and tap it a few times to free up (concrete floor works a treat) plug it in and test it before re installing.

    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
