V35: Power Window Not Going Up

[greenpool]

Hi guys,

So the passenger side power window appears to have malfunctioned. turns out the auto lock doesn't work either. Spoke to a mechanic a while ago who said i need to get an actuator.

Is this easy to source?

Is this also the reason the power window is not working?

My biggest worry is that the window doesn't come up and its stuck all the way down

Was wondering:

Can any mechanic/service station fix this?

Does it take time to source parts?

Does anybody know of a place to fix it in South Eastern suburbs in Melbourne?

I have seen a DIY guide floating around but i don't think i'm tech savvy enough to do it myself.

Appreciate any info!

thanks!

In regard to the Power windew, it's a matter of replacing it. You can buy them from the states shipped to Australia for just under $200.

They can be pulled apart and cleaned, but this just buys you a month or so before it dies again.

Common Problem unfortunately. If you do a search, you'll find plenty of info on SAU.

does the speaker in the door work too?

if it doesnt, there is a loom in the hinge of the door. make sure its plugged in and secure, and it has the rubber boot over it
