this is why manual is better than electric windows and seats
Manual windows still break lol, seats I agree with
Thanks….interestingly, my Driver side “ AUTO” switch works fine on DOWN/only: seems to “ STOP”occasionally on “ UP WINDOW “ just last few days…2015 Journey ( no “Auto “on passenger, & other 3 Windows work fine !
Excellent video. Thank you!
aaaaaahhhhhhhh
Useless information 😮!!!
A complete video showing the problem and the solution in the same video would have been much more effective. Pity! : /
never datisfied are you J Jo.?... life is so difficult for you ..
@@jgal1231 Excuse me??
@@jgal1231 not going to lie, I comment dumb things on other videos, but you win
Agreed. We didn't get a How to Fix It video. We got a Why it Works When You Fix it video.
Fell asleep like watching it just like I did in science class 😴
I’m so confused 😂😂
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂me too
🫣😂🤣
We all here cause these damn windows ain’t shi 😅
It's ok to be slow guys
I don't even have a car
lol
@@Crybabeee Sucks to be you then doesn't it haha.
@@shelby6622 Is it that obvious? I try to hide it with laughter, "lol's" and "lmao's" etc. The truth is not owning a car has not only damaged my reputation but my whole career. It's honestly bumming me out just seeing the empty parking space when I get home from a long walk or a short run. Sorry for piling my baggage on you. I'm probably not that important to you anyway.
@@Crybabeee well you will on day!
And one day you will have window issues.
And because of your curious actions, you will know how to fix it!
In the meantime, you may be able to help someone else out with their bad window!
🤗
Stay tune to the next video that shows what this video should have 😂
Think u I just fixed my car windows with my knife
Howww
@@georgealatas6209 if you have a box cutter stick it between under your window buttons 😉it should work

I saw a documentary about Windows.Sometimes,they go up and down!
Waste of time thanks for nothing chieftain we love you
Straight to the point with NO annoying musical intro to blow my speakers... thank you.
That only works if the problem is the switch nothing else
🤣😂😅🤣🇵🇷🙋
Ok, where is the nearest Starbucks? I need coffee🤧😂
Geez - and i was gonna have Audi valet my car to their service center 125 miles away to fix this. 10 seconds and done. Love you!!!!
My car was in garage about 3weeks and front door windows was open and now they really bad working they slowly up and stucking. So are windows gums can by hard and dont working?
I have a Hyundai Tucson 2006 limited, my windows won’t go down, and my back light won’t turn on, my dash also, my head light work, my turn signal work please help me, if my chair don’t connect that can cause that problem?
I have the same problem with my nissan navara. So frustrating
Have to say that was absolutely easily understandable. Great job communicating the process.
Thank you so much, you helped me with the big storm!! I'm very grateful for your time!!
Paperclip trick to get coolant light off under fluid "overflow" clear container because the sensor inside is broken. I know it is. I will not buy any sensor or container. My coolant fluid is perfect ....NOW!!!!
I'd get 2 9v batteries or a rechargeable battery pack and go straight to the motor after disconnecting the switches.
Great explanation!
I did it yesterday, and didnt work, now I remember it seems to be a power problem ,the+ and '-' has had very little power, fuse ok,may be a bad contact somewhere.I' ll take a look again.
I had a similar issue where it was only sending 9v. I spliced in 12v into it and it worked to get the windows up. Going to try and find the issue before I start rolling them down again
Hey thanks man I swear to God that is the most perfectly laid out explanation of any electronic switch I've ever seen on RUclips I mean that was a switch control 101 for dummies I mean you made it very easy to understand and thank you I will definitely be using this hack in the future
Godbless xx
Didn’t even work
Bro RUclips is litteraly the best invention.
Thanks bro
Any simple way
Thought your door panel was shity before watch this video and take my advice then see where you're at. 😂😂
What if the motor is still working because it can hear the sound but glass is not moving
Can I simply replace the switch? Can you get something like this at an autoparts store?
Using this trick you're bypassing the switch, so if the trick worked - your switch must be bad, and yes usually you can buy a new switch at a parts store. Good luck!
Or you could just take the switch from the back seat and see if it fits on the front seat switch plug I tried it on my Lexus gx 470 and it worked perfectly
Awesome idea! Thank you. I might try that on mine
My passenger side window won't open from its own window switch or the main driver's switch either. Would replacing the passenger side switch resolve the issue for the driver's side access also?
Here’s a simple tip I got from this and another video. Look for the two colored wires that control which door you are having the issue with. You may need to remove the door or find schematic. You may also have a connection with two small grey wires on one of the contacts. Take a paper clip between the two wire connection and a main wire. Get a piece of wire from the other unused wire and touch ground and it will roll up or down. It didn’t short my system.
Imma just get it repaired! 😂
THANK YOU.. VERY HELPFUL. i HAVE BEEN PAYING MECHANICS TO HELP SOLVE THIS AND THEY CHARGE A SENIOR SO MUCH AND NOTHING CHANGES... I WISH I COULD FIND REAL MECHANICS IN MY STATE.
My. Window is stuck down and it may rain tonight. I hope I can get this done thank you!
Used this to get my windows up,replaced the switch and they still won't work.
assuming that the motor hasn't gone bad
The absolute best explanation and simple video. Thank you!
Great vid man!
Can you explain how Ben Franklin got electricity from a kite and a 🗝️?
Electricity can come from the sky during thunderstorms. It's called lightning!
Why does it say evolution cuz I go to the gym called evolution strength and fitness why was it say I just turned on it
I can't tell u how much I appreciate ur channel and how much I've actually learned from it! Can't wait for more and more vidoes coming so direct to the point and useful at the same time

@@masyaf897 Free Beer!
What if it's the motor that's knackered?
Very useful information 👌 thanks
Just pull it up.
why not just make it one video
🤡
Thanks for this super illustrative video. Helped me to put up my power window in the drivers side on my Dodge Caliber 2007 until the master switch arrives. Blessings!!!
Thanks, did you get a switch, or master Panel….? My Auto , Driver Wi Dow does NOT go UP & stops sometimes, etc, All other windows ok power ( no AUTO DOWN PASSENGER , 2015 DODGE Journey)?.I am thinking of popping off “ AUTOL” switch, seeing what ?
@@opera93 I got the one on the drivers side that comes with the four switches, the master.
Seriously!!!?? I'm NOT a mechanic! Vid waste of time
. If the windows roll down using their own switch but not with the master switch would it be a bad motor or a bad switch?
Definitely not the motor, because it works from a different switch. You either have a bad switch or a wire broke between the door and the body of the car
My window on drivers side goes up but super slow and about half way up i have to pull up woth my hand while pushing the button at the same time ! What can i do to speed it up?
Your window motor must be getting old (weak). On some cars you can replace just the motor, on others - you have to replace the whole window regulator assembly.
Thanks i didnt wanna hear that but im glad you got back with me
Does this work for the passenger rear
Straight to the point! This beers for you! 🍻👍🏾
i dont mean to be offtopic but does anybody know a method to log back into an instagram account??
I was dumb forgot the login password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me.
@Royce Eliseo Instablaster :)
@Alijah Franklin I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
@Alijah Franklin It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thank you so much you saved my account :D
@Royce Eliseo No problem :D
Your video was super helpful for me today. My driver-side power window switch failed and was stuck open.
Your technique worked flawlessly.
❤
Thank you very much for your help
Dude! I no longer need the 12v
Modern vehicles have a processor in the switch that sends a bus signal to the body control module then it sends power back to the window. Your “hack” is not going to work on most cars today.
You're an absolute genius
Lol I shoulda looked at your other video first. I got sparks and good thing I was wearing rubber work gloves cuz the paperclip turned red hot, just for 1 second but it woulda burned me for sure!
What's the other video you mentioned
ruclips.net/video/yjHR5qRJvUg/видео.html
Used this trick on my 2013 200 and damn did it save me a lot of time and money!!! Thank you for the tips and please keep making these informational vids.
Nice video but pretty irresponsible. The average person looking for answers on a quick RUclips video isn’t gonna get it right
That's their problem
Wow very good job thanks bro good inf
Thank you. Very interesting 😊
Very helpful
nice vid
Wouldn't it be a shame to find that it's the motor that is stuck, and not the switch? Hm?
No, This trick helps you determine if the switch is the problem, that's not a shame. A shame would be blindly replacing window parts without checking anything, just to find out that it didnt fix the problem.

How do i know if the switch or motor is the problem
You showed nothing useful at all
Thank you for this video. I was able to get my window up and saved money. I'm a complete auto amateur and the instructions were very easy to follow. Thanks again.
I can’t stand this commercial
Screw all that..fix it daammm
That was interesting, I didn't know the switches worked like that.

Not a good video, problem fixing the solution would've been best not just talk and showing the window motor
I think the poster is an expert at this. However, the average Joe the plumer and aunt Sally might not be able to understand clips and electricity. It is been said be careful you do not connect directly + to - . You could cause fire and loose your Honda Civic.. and your insurance goes up. It will be easier to buy the Entire window master switch replacement or the regulator and its components. Correct, Not taking a risk is a risk in itself, but lets be safe and lets die of natural causes not inside the car engulfed in fire. Hope you like my post.
Thank you very much
I will go straight to the m.f motor and test it😀
Guys trust me use your key to press down arrow to open your window
Abdi Janga explain please
😂
That’s a great way to catch your car on fire
Video is way to long. Just get to the point.
Great now i have to search for an other video...
Have anybody seen a window motor with a hex or a square or a spline on one of its anchor ends?
As always your explanations are easily understandable 👍👍👍
Thank you very helpful
I would just replace the switch.
Get a clue. OEM power window switch can easily run $300. Only a dufus starts replacing parts without knowing whats broken.
@@boots7859 Der.It wouldn't be new.

I have access to the wiring diagram. how would I use the wiring diagram? black to green?
I have a 2010 honda accord crosstour and I cannot find any videos for my specific car and I dont see enough similarities to feel comfortable DIY'ing my power switch. My driver side power window will not come up at all. Do you know about this kind of car?
My car window won't go down but when I use my key and hold the unlock button the window goes down and I can use the switch to bring the window back up but after that the switches won't work again
Do u know what I could do
And I’m not watching the other video. There’s better videos out there my friend. Good job trying to get viewers thumbs down.
Not thank you not really good idea don't do it and then you be worse situation giving a shortcut to your vehicle and that is expensive then fixed they charge a lot of money for shortcut to vehicle
The video kinda is bs you should show it done and any questions with the video
You can destroy the PCM doing that.
My car window will only go up in hot weather can anyone tell me why?
Sounds like a connection problem, may be your switch is bad.. Hard to say - need to test it when it's not working
