My driver window doesnt go up!
But it goes down, i can hear the motor when i push down on the button. It would take a few try to get it to go up, but now it wont do it at all. And I need to get it to go up for the track tommorrow, or they wont let me race. I took the switch thing apart on the arm rest, and it all looked clean, Is there anyway else i can bring that SOB up?

 

Take the door panel off and manually pull it up after assesing if you can do this by hand with or without removing the regulator/motor.
Having all kinds of tough times lately eh?

 

Oh man. Since I had the car. Thats why Im gonna sell it.
Is it hard stuff or easy stuff? If its easy stuff ill go out there now and tear it apart, if its hard stuff, ill wait til tomorrrow.
Do I have to take EVERYTHING off the door?

 

My NB door takes me about 3 minutes to take off. Something like 5 grommets (some are missing) and 3 screws. Pops right off. The NAs have to be easier than that.

 

lol ill check i tout now

 

Don't you sleep? I'm in Alaska, that's my excuse.

 

sucks, i cant get my boost control working ... and I really dont want to spin my whole way through the 60ft lol. 8psi is enough for first gear, and 12 will be murder with all the camber im running. Regardless, I will be there tomorrow to run my car so see ya tomorrow.

 

Do like I did, take the door off and make two sections out of it by separating the "top" rounded portion from the flat bottom inner skin. Use velcro to hold the skin in place and just set the top into position and let gravity hold it there. I can get my door's inside off in less than 20 seconds...

..and yes, I want a cookie.

 

I have no idea what you mena man lol

 

I cant go if i dont get this sorted sadly lol I have a mbc if you want to use it. just let me know, celly is back on too.

Ok, so i tried putting power to the motor, and nothing happend at all, i tired both wires too and nothing. i know the motor is good becuaase even tho is all the way down it still try to go down when you push down on the switch. any other ideas or input would be great

 

Doesn't the window move down using gravity? So if you pull the motor (or just loosen it a bit) and then slide the window up and put the motor back in place, that should work well enough for a track day, right? Just put some tape over the switch so you don't press it by accident.

 

Its an electric window. Does that still apply? Doesnt sound right.

 

Pull the regulator out so you can move the window up by hand. Then reinstall the regulator to hold it in place. It's just an electric motor man.

 

clean the connectors on the switch....or put a +12v source directly on the motor leads.

 

I tried that.
And it didnt do anything
I dunno why. Im sure sure i did the right connector. The motor is bolted on with three bolts on the door right? like, to the top left of the speaker.

 

So, unbolt the motor, pull it out? pull the window up, put motor back? theres nothing im suppose to whine?

 

make sure to try the reverse of the ground and power.....

did you clean the switch according to this guide? http://www.miata.net/garage/CleaningSwitch.html

mine contacts were black...i had the exact same problem.

 

I have to hook up a ground too? I just did a power straight from the battery. and yea, it was clean D:

 

Nvm.
Im not gonna run it.
Man.
Someone buy this car off me.

 

... wtf?
