Hi
My drivers side window has been slow lately but today it went down but got stuck, i finally got it to go back up by pushing the switch wires further into the switch. Does this sound like a dodgy switch or is it motor relay related? (it does still open but not close)


Thanks

Sounds like a wiring or switch fault to me

if it is moving slowly lately you should use some silicone spray on the runners to free it. leaving it will ultimately snap the cable and wear the motor out.

it does sound as though your switch is faulty. a scrapyard replacement will be a couple of quid.

I am havin a very similar issue with my passenger side window. Forgive my ignorance but what do you mean by silicone spray and when you say runners is that within the door or do you mean the window rubbers that the window runs between.

i mean the window rubbers. wind the window down then spray it inside the rubbers. wind the window up and down a dozen times and it sohuld move a lot quicker than before.

silicone spray is a spray can that says silicone spray on the side.
you can get it at any motor factor for a couple of quid.
