Ive been looking around this site and found numerous post about driver side window problems. My car has also fell victim to the window nightmare where it is now unable to go up or down anymore (unfortunately the last position it was left in was all the half way anyone can just reach in and open the car and take my sound system and gear knob if its a hobo. kekeke. sorri.). Im gona assume its the motor. Anyone else have this problem? My car has not been driven for like 2 weeks caz of this problem. Bloody miss driving my baby. Thank god I have a garage. If not man it would have been flooded with rain or stolen whichever comes first. LOL.

Anyone else think its something else? or have any solution say away or know of any auto electrician who wont charge me trillions and trillions of money and thats just for the motor. LOL. Anyways Thanks for your yuummy time.

tO bE COntiNued... HopEfUllY! :lol:

I expect your usual mechanic should be able to diagnose and fix the problem themselves if you are not able to rather than having to use a specialist electrician

I've had 4 different problems with my power windows (on the proton of course)

1. Motor

2. The wire pully thing came off

3. Something else (current problem) - motor works, wire is fine but its not going up straight.. falling to one side all the time

4. The actual switch

The first two times, I've just taken off the door panels and found out straight away what the problem and the last time I was just sick of doing it so I got my mechanic to chekc it out, cost me next to nothing too

PROTONS ROCK!

Sorry for the delay

Thanks everyone

My relayer (black box) thing clicks everytime I push the up or down switch for my window but nothing happens. So your saying its not the motor but the regulator? ill give it a check today with the mechanics. I always thought it would cost alot to repair this things. Thanks all. Ill give you the end result of this endless battle to open windows. :lol:

laters

Mechanic found that the motor was gone. He tested by supplying power to the window by removing the motor or something ill just cut to the chase i gota now go get a motor for it. Anyone know where to get one cheap. Thanks for your time again.

:(

also having window problems too.. again :O .. when the window is fully up and ya press the button to move it down, it drops slightly one way, then the other, then goes down fine.. seems to do the same thing on the way up, but not drop oviously.

also wile im on about the windows.. if i dont have the windows all the way up and i cose the door, they rattle and makes that 'cheap car door' noise..

any ideas? im thinkin the regulator guides mite not be holding the windows firm, and for the droping one.. i duno, cause ive had it fall off the regulator once b4 and fixed it by screwing the bolt back on and lock tighting it.

from experience, the cheap car door noise happens with all r32s and r33s with their windows not fully up.. :O

;)

I just finished replacing the regulator and motor

cost me $175 for them

Anyways my windows work now

thank you everyone for contributing your advices

Hope those who suffer same problems find solutions too

I wont feel happier until i fix the fuel vapour leak

lol

but till then ... its an endless journey of fixing and maintenance

    • It's kind of interesting - They definitely do builds that split the difference between what they like and what will generate views and engagement. The NC Platform always surprises everyone in a good way, in an uncomfortably good way some may say. They could throw a LS in there and arguably have the best (and best performing) car of the entire stable. But that isn't necessarily what draws views, because people viewing don't want to accept the vegetables of a LS NC MX5 being a superior vehicle in every way (including fun) than a RB26 240Z. This is also why there's not a lot of content about the GR Yaris (on the web in general). They're too good, yet 'only a Yaris' The community doesn't want certain cars to be as good as they are - to beat their hero cars, and I believe the NC MX5 is absolutely one of those cars.
    • Yeah - My key still does the chime thing. I followed the procedure but it didn't activate on the (identical) third set of keyfob that I had. I vaguely remember the alarm saying you can only pair two keys with it. Now that I've dug it up, it appears that you very much can pair keyfobs to the alarm system. (which are the fobs I use to unlock the car). I have successfully diverted the thread and can probably not use the OEM keyfob ever again unless I use the aftermarket alarm and attempt to pair the OEM keyfob to it. Which might just work, or not :D. I definitely used the nissan method and not the aftermarket alarm method.
    • What makes it worse is that Nissan made keys in the same style, for example R34 and Stagea, but they work at different frequencies or something like that. So they look the same but the remotes are not interchangeable. I learned that from some guy selling aftermarket blank keys.
    • Does your door chime work when you have the key in the lock and open the door? I've had that disabled because it's f**king annoying and it is one thing that messes with the pairing. Because now the car doesn't detect key in ignition anymore and the slide-key-in-and-out sequence does not trigger the pairing mode anymore. The service manual has a section on the various bits involved in doing the syncing. I presume it'll be similar between Stagea and R34.
    • Agree, but meh, I think is is based more on LOLS than actually apples to apples, like, who would have thunk a turbo 4 cylinder would not beat a NA 4 cylinder  I think with just basic N/A mods, like a exhaust and tune, it would be equal to the Mini in its current form, maybe I know my current 2.5 would "chop the mini" as the midrange now has a night and day difference in power delivery compared to the tuned 2.0, by around 20kwatw and 30nm from around 2k rpm "ish"....... I'm kinda hoping that they do a N/A build, either with the MZR 2.0 or with whatever they decide to use If I recall correctly they did talk about K swapping one a while ago
