Wtb - R33 S1 Driver's Window Autowinder Control Box.


Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

This is a bit of a strange item, but it looks mine is dead.

I'm after the small black box that's found under the trim on the driver's side door in series 1 R33's. In series 2, they combine that box with the button panel, something which I learnt the hard way. This box controls the auto-winding function of the driver's side window.

The location is just under the arm rest, in the middle of the door, about 12cm long, 6x4cm

If you have one for sale, please PM me. I'd like to be able to operate my window before summer fully hits. :laugh:

cheers

Sciby.

out of curiosity, are you wanting to buy a new one cos your window is not working now. if so, pull apart the black box, you may break it a little, and you will find one of the solders on the circuit board has failed. get hold of a soldering iron and some solder and re solder the loose connection. test it b4 you put it back together. should solve that problem. very common. happened to me. only soldered once in my life and i managed to do it easily.

hope that helps you out mate.

Well, I suppose I've got nothing to lose, it doesn't work already. :D

I'll try it, but if someone still has one to sell, please PM me anyway.

    • This lady loved her FD for 25 years!  https://www.topspeed.com/80-year-old-woman-donates-fd-rx-7-mazda/ My brother in law. He's nice enough to let me drive it whenever. He'll likely not see this, but I'll try: @r-is-for-fun got any pics?
    • Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365.

I used to love doing this 20 years ago on SAU and got a bit nostalgic for a moment... 😅
    • Try fabricating something like this and install it under the pedals? Not sure if it's legal or not....
    • Even though I have some pretty good (brand) ratchet ringies, I avoid using them to break open tight bolts. A broken ratchet is very annoying.
