cherrs for any help

john

 

anyone?

 

The drivers window failed on my old focus, was due to a microswitch breaking on the auto down feature. Required a whole new mechanism!

 

i think ur right because i had the door card off 2day and found nothing broken,nothing out of place so can only gess its the mechanism

i tell ya its one thing after another with this car

looked on ebay and thay are going from 30 quid and upwards so gess what i will be buying next lol

Make sure you get the right one though, as there are different ones depending on weather your car has auto down/auto up/global closure/3 or 5 door etc. Took ford a few attempts to get the right one for mine!

When you press the button can you hear a clicking from inside the door?

 

mine did this yesterday
i can hear the click. thank fook i hav A/C ahah

well i had both door cards of to compare passenger side made the ushal noise from a motor but driverside there was nothing.....the only clicking was from the switch

gud thing i have air con to

hmm, I could hear the motor clicking on and off when mine failed. Sounds like it could be something else, maybe the switch is fooked? Could be worth poking round with a multimeter before you go splashing out on a new mechanism!

 

worth a shot i gess

cherrs mate
