Heyy sau

So I've got my a pretty bad situation... My driver's side window won't come back up :(

So through pulling the trim off and going through isolating the switch and motor I have my self a broken switch and broken motor.

Called my local Nissan and they quoted me $570 for the motor and $194 for the switch... But said it's now illegal for them to provided me with part numbers.

I have the motor one as 80730AL501

But with vigorous searching of sau, google for both the m35 and v35 sedan no result for the switch. Could anyone help me out with the part number please?

Thanks you

They come up all the time on yahoo japan if you can afford to wait for shipping (mine did the same and I just suction cupped/duct taped it shut for a few weeks... cops didn't like it but haha). Fyi I ended up buying a passenger side motor V35 motor and just took a little cutting back of the excess plastic to get it to fit. Lost the Auto Up function but for the amount I saved it was worth it (was about 150 for regulator and motor). They do come up on Ebay from time to time as well. Hope that helps.

BTW if the parts department told you it was "illegal" to give you a part number you should report them to their manager.

They may decide not to give you the part#, but it is certainly not illegal.

Thinking of just putting the window up on the weekend and blocking it to stay up, auto up and down is my favourite feature :'( but thank you for the information and I'll keep it in mind :)

Don't worry Duncan I had a good laugh about it, there was two Guys that owned imports but they never answer the phone :(

Agreed, auto is the goods

Another option is you can just get an auto elec to rebuild the motor from yours. I got quoted $80 to get one rebuilt when mine failed, but then i picked up a second hand one for way less and just stuck that in.

I remember someone deep in the sands of time said the motor brushes were very similar to an R33 window motor.

Ive had this happen to me on many occasions.

What i did was slightly tap the outside door and then get in the car while holding the window switch up close the door with a bit of force and it should go back up. Should

It may or may not work for you but give it a try, and if it does work dont put it down again.

Good luck

      yeah i agree paint match stops it from standing out so much, oh that's actually really good to know i was wondering if it would help with air flow now actually having an outlet in the bonnet. Will have to focus on ducting into and out of the radiator now to make the most of it.

      I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps

      small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
