Power Windows

[GMan]

An issue which i have only recently noticed is that my power windows on my r34 gt-t is going up and down really slowly. i have compared this to many other r34 gt-t's which my friends own.

anyone know how to overcome this problem??

Try silicone lube spray on the window rubbers. I usually spray the window and let it go up and down a few times, then wipe it ALL off. (you're only really trying to get it into the rubber).

This works assuming your electrics are good enough to power it all in the first place .. gl

Do that then check your battery, i know of a r32 and a silvia who had the same problem, and when the battery's eventually needed replacing the windows went up like twice as quick

yep, my r32 had the same problem.

i opened up the switch and cleaned the terminals...fixed:)

If your running a system, it might be drawing to much power from your battery/alternator, and that could affect anything else that needs to run off those as well.

I had the same problem in my 33 it turned out to be a dying power window motor, all you can really do is replace it

my passenger side window is slow as...my car is a r34 gt..

while mine is goin up, other cars power windows can go up n down 2 times lol..

Also you can check the alignment of the window, if it is not pushing in the correct angle it can slow things down dramatically. To check, when closing the window, pull the window upwards and to the front, then try upwards and to the back. If it speeds up (more than you are pulling) it is likely the window has fallen out of alignment.

Not a common problem on skylines but fords certainly have this problem.

ah ok thanks.. i am running a system which consists of tv, 2 amps, speakers...subs have been disconnected now

also have installed is a power window lifter kit. when i lock the car and the windows go up themselves with alarm it is faster then pressing it myself.

get a high-capacity battery - especially if you got alot of gauges that lights up etc, sound systems etc... get a more powerful battery brother...
