Hey there guys I've recently have this window problem just wondering if any of you guys have faced a similar issue and know how do i fix this. It started when my door actuators died so I brought my car to a car electrical shop. They tested popped up the bonnet and connected a lead to test the wiring system under the steering and inside of the door trim. after testing they said my alarm module might have died or something and my actuator's dead. (I've already told them in the first place that the actuators dead and thought they might have a universal one and mod it into my car). so i've never heard from my mechanic that my module was dead before so i said ok. they screwed back my door trim and i drove back home. half way out of the shop i noticed my power window (driver side) does not go up automatically. it only goes up manually. and when either door (passenger/driver) is opened, the window drops down like 1/4. I'm not sure what caused this and any advise would be great.

on a side note i brought my car to my mechanic and they tried the "reset" method after doing some research on the net and it still didn't work. window still drops when the door is open and stays there when closed.

i was pretty pissed as i paid 90$ to the so called electricians to "diagnose" my car's problem to get the windows not working. now I'm lost on what to do next. any advise?

Get the credit card out and bend over. That's not going to be a cheap exercise. Both door looks and both window motors need doing on top of the stereo you asked me about. Get ready to shell out $2k .

If it gets stuck down and you want it to go up. Open the door and while holding the Window switch up close the door with a bit of force (don't slam it) and that should do it.

Works everything for me.

The motors and regs in these doors are common fault. Reg + motors new from Nissan are about 800 for the both per door (give or take I bit)

    • I'm thinking that this is such a small part of the problem that you could easily forego the vac pump and just achieve 90% of what you need, which is keeping the gate open when off boost. It's not as if there are not already techniques to keep a gate fully closed under boost. After all, you have boost. Just use a wastegate actuator that will allow you to apply the boost on the appropriate side, just like every external gate out there.
    • Heres another fitment photo. redrilled the pattern to 5x112, and threw my audi´s rims on. had to touch the upper control arms with grinder, because the "sharp corner" was sticking about 2-3mm on the tire path. i have the "fender lip" mostly cut off, otherwise these (too) would contact with it. 20x9.5 ET25 rear    265/30 20x8.5 ET20 front    255/30 they are temporary, and look too big for the chassis. searching for 19s to it.
    • From experience, it will come back to bite you haha.
    • Background: my BMW 225i hatchback (rebodied MINI/X1) came with 3x RE003 and 1x Goodyear Asymmetric something. The RE003 roared and slid around, the Goodyear side was quiet and grippy. Definitely my car was thrashed before it got sent to dealers. My brother also got RE003 all round on his old VA WRX STI, I wasn't impressed with them, car was loud so can't comment on noise. Anyway, Hankook stopped making/updating V12 Evo2. So bought S1 Evo3 runflats. Great daily duties tyre and not that harsh ride. Tyre reviews site/youtube rated them as best stopping in the rain and I believe them. Next set, Goodyear Asymmetric 5 non-RFT. It beat PS4 in tests and is like $100 cheaper, so put them on. Great tyre, more grip then S1 Evo3 but a tad noisier as expected, still rocking them. Next set I am looking to go runflats, probably the new Hankook Evo. Although the new Pirelli PZ5 did well in tyrereviews test. Or go Goodyear Asymmetric 6 which was top tyre last year. The V12 Evo2 on my gen5 Liberty GT wagon did great in cold condition (drove to snowy mountains for a day so my husky can feel his ancestor's roots). Super impressive performance for $120 each lol. Never skimp on tyres, brakes, suspension. There's old pics of my R31's crappy random brake pads bending in the caliper at Oran Park track day somewhere around here. Anyway, my 2 cents.
