Hi.
my drivers side window and 1/4 glass has suddenly stopped dropping when you open the door.
I also hear a flurry of solenoids clicking for a second or two. Tied to reset windows but dosnt help. then once in about 5 or 10 attempts it will work fine for that one time.
any ideas please?

 

Hi Frank, did you try the key in the door lock and turn and hold for about 5-7 seconds to the right?

 

Thanks for that.. but no difference.
Window keeps popping up and down by 1/4 inch including 1/4 glass intermittently with the door open. It thinks I am pulling the handle but I'm not.

 

@Frank ( Sunnyside ) ,
Usually the sign of a low house battery, I have had the same, sometimes they would do nothing, or the 1/4 glass would keep dropping until it disappeared into the quarter panel and made the clunk at the bottom, charged the battery, and all was good after a reset of all windows.

Thanks Johnny.
I have it on a battery maintainer. As all my calipers are off the car I can't start it as you have to press the brake. I will measure the voltage later. Could it be a faulty door handle
The passenger side is perfect.
Frank.

 

On a side note...... what you doing with your calipers Frank....as I want to paint mine but not sure where to start.....

 

Hi..( not sure of your name)
I have sent all my calipers to a company called " Big Red" . They do full restoration on your calipers and send them back any colour you want.
I have chosen Post Box Red. Basically they are now new🙂

 

It's Paul. lol. Looking at Big Red now....... I might see if I can send them mine.

 

Hi Paul.
It's the place Car SOS and Wheeler Dealers use.

 

Ah is it. Interesante......

Whats the turnaround time like and can you share a price for all 4 painted and refurbished?

 

It took about 1 week for the rear calipers, including cradle.
lipers.You will need to ask them for a price. I think it depends on how bad they are but I paid arround £100 each.
The complete fronts are much larger and have more parts. Mine are still there so I haven't had the final price but I think they will be about £160 each.
But to be fair thats like getting back new calipers.

 

Hi Johnny,
I made some brake pipe end caps so got the car started. Still no better. Some times the window dosnt go down some times its bouncing up and down repeatedly a half inch like it's on steroids.??
Some times it just works ???
