Faulty Passenger Window

[rs73]

somewhere on the motor assembly. you just have to look around, sorry can't help you anymore cos I'm not pulling my door apart again after spending 5 hours to get to my passenger door lock actuator! (posted a thread here too about that)

I found it on Pg 10....

Ok mine is working like new again after doing the simple reset. I thought I was gonna have to take out all of the bolts again but Nissan/Infiniti made it easy to reset the motor.

I dont know if I missed it, but to do the reset remove the 3 bolts holding the panel and it is behind the smaller sticker on the metal door piece. Remove the sticker and its a little nipple poking out.

With the door open roll the window completely up without using the auto function. (Barely lift up until the window rolls up.

Close the door with you inside the vehicle.

Hold the reset button down while you press the window switch down to roll the window down. Do not use the auto roll down.

After rolling it completely down give it a couple seconds and then release both buttons.

Now you roll the window completely up without using the auto function and give it a couple of seconds before releasing.

Now you should be good. Roll down the window to open the door from the outside.

After spending some hours yesterday again on the motor, I still couldn't find the reset switch. After giving another clean, finally now the window do go up when the door close.

No worries, but the problem with the auto up and the window still pops down automatically still there. I have yet to see if the window still pop down also when I close the door. I can't get that to be fix, bugger.

Is this a coupe thing or do the windows in the sedan stuff up as well?

[Chris Rogers]

[asitag]

[Chris Rogers]

v36 isnt that much better cost wise for parts. less things break on it though.

Hi guys,

I was having the window issue (passenger side) a few days ago and ended up cleaning out and reseting the motor. It worked for 2 days and then today coming home i put the windows down. a few min later I felt a bit hot and noticed it went back up on its own!! Tried putting it down again and no deal. Also the auto up/down when open/close the door isnt working again. Annoying!!.. specially when you put a couple of hours worth of work into it a few days ago... Anyway.. just wanted to confirm your thoughts, definately motor that needs replacing? or actuator? Where exactly is the actuator? Throughout all these DIY's i saw a lot of motor accessing/cleaning stuff but no actuator.. Forgive me if im blind..

thanks

OK I got the know how to reset the motor. If your window wind down when you auto wind it up, or wind down when you close the door. Here is what my Uncle told me to do. He is a mechanic in Nissan Service Centre in Ipswich Motorway. After you take the motor with the gearbox out from the door frame. Plug the electrical back and turn ignition on. Start winding up or down the window using the switch, looking at the rotating shaft, count 8 numbers of turns. That will reset the motor and the limit switch.
