    Dude, you and @GetJeeping ROCK OUT LOUD!! I've had to roll my windows and lock my doors for years from the driver-side. 10 minutes to do your fix (most of it was getting the molding far enough out that I could access the wires). Fixed. Done. Gone. Thank you!!

      GetJeeping? Never heard of that one. OutJeeping? Austin is great. Anyway, hope this works on the 2door as well. Don't see why it wouldn't. Thanks for showing how simple it is!!

    The same thing happened to my passenger front window (why is it always when it's raining/snowing?...) I wish I'd seen this before I bought a regulator/motor replacement. Although, the motor was getting painfully slow, so I think it was on it's way out, anyway. This little gem goes into the bag of tricks. Thank you!

    I've been having neither one of my passenger windows work off and on for a year now. I live in Florida and it rains. I'm going to try this, right now. The window worked one for the first time in a while yesterday, and I knew I shouldn't have rolled it down. Today it looks like it's going to rain. Time to go save the day!

    So, the back window wouldn't work from the driver side, you bypassed the window control lock which (supposedly) has no effect on the driver's control, and that allows you to roll that back window up from the driver's window control again? I am asking because mine is doing the same thing, I just want to make sure I am understanding you correctly, Thanks.

    Not the best way to use those splice connectors, and you should not cut any wire in the harness. Use two splice connectors and a short piece of wire to connect the two together. That way you don't have to cut the harness wiring. Otherwise, a great tip, and a friend with a Jeep is going to do it now!!

    Any idea why none of my door controls (locks and window control) work when my door is open? My censor says my door is open (which it’s not) so now I can’t roll my windows up at all.

      Very common for wires to break and fray out in the door hinges
      Id check for broken wires and replace that sensor.

    • @fishhead6349
      @fishhead6349 4 года назад

      Yes as he said. I was replacing speakers and when I hooked door speaker up in drivers door it didnt work. I had power, but no ground. Inside that rubber boot from body to door there is a ground that goes from single wire to 2 and it was pulled out. Its a pain in the ass to get to, but it fixed that issue. Now Ive repalced my master switch in drivers door and only driver side windows work from that switch. The passenger side would intermittently work sometimes, but now have stopped. The drivers rear will only work from drivers switch, but not from rear door switch?...smh. I did not find any broken wires that I could tell in passenger side so now I'm scratching my head. This might be my issue, but I would think replacement of that driver door switch assembly would have fixed this, but who knows. Guess I'll try this before ordering a passenger door switch assembly. I would think I could stick a jumper wire between those wires first to test it

      @@fishhead6349 no worries the shop I had to take it to disconnected it fully because they didn’t want to look for the parts or see if it could be salvaged at all. Except they didn’t disconnect it properly so my car is still dying. Oh they also ripped my hood open with a screwdriver because they count get it open (I told them how) and now the latch and latch line is busted :’)
