Window won't go up! HELPPPP!
 

So, my passenger window stopped working last week. So today when messing with it it would go down, but not up! It only responds from the passenger side window control too. I've tried using the drive side switch and no movement in either direction and not audable noise of the motor clicking. When I press the button for the window to go up it doesn't move nor make a noise. But when the window was all the way up I was able to fully roll it all the way down (but sadly not back up). I'm completing stumped on what's broke: the window motor, the passenger switch, driver switch, or does my car just hate me for leaving it sitting for two months? :bonk::bonk::bonk::bonk:

FIRST OFF, @SpeedDemon26 you only have to post in one section ...... ;) .....if you double post it just gets us old guys confused .... :(

OK

First thing I'd check is the fuse. It's in the #14 slot (25A) in the fuse box under the hood.

While you're there, might as well check the other sides fuse also (#10 position).

If the fuse is OK, the next thing I would suggest to do it take the switch out and test it.

Then we can go from there .....

Calling @Ultramaroon - he is a window expert .....

Nah ......let him look for it.

Have you checked if the window lock switch isn't accidentally pressed in?

Sorry for that! I posted in the wrong area first so tried to repost and delete the wrong one but couldn't..

My 2013 Scion FR-S doesn't come with a window lock switch. Unless it's a hidden feature I was never told about haha

Pretty sure it does. This is a photo from mine. Upper left button.

I tried both fuses by the way and it didn't fix the problem. I appreciate the idea though!

Check the reinitialization process in your manual.

Well ya see I would... But the kind sir that sold me this car didn't include one.

http://m.scion.ca/scion/en/m/owners/manuals can get a pdf manual here.

Well, did you toggle the nonexistent switch yet? We're all holding our breath here. Slow day in FT86-land.

Well I found that darn switch y'all were talking about. Buttttttt, still doesn't work :sigh::bonk:

Oh, dammit. It would've been too easy. Well, if you've verified the fuses, are handy with a multimeter, and don't mind removing the driver's side door card we can continue. Otherwise, I recommend a pro.

Still has to try the reset before going that far.

Oops. Yup. I'll make it extra easy for OP.

Your move, OP .......:)

My father is more knowledgable on the multimeter than me so he's gonna look into it tomorrow!

Did the reset not work? Remember, for the passenger-side window, the procedure must be done with the passenger-side switch.

Didn't work! Ill give it another shot today plus try and unplug the battery for awhile.

Nah, don't bother disconnecting the battery unless you need to for some other reason. You'll reset the ECU and will have a couple days of shitty throttle response on top of a dead window.

Alright since we are here, i have the same problem after i got new doors put in. I checked the fuses and did the initialization process for 30 mins once and nothing. Took it to the dealer they had no idea what to do. My driver side window goes up and down but no auto up or down and same for passenger if i got to the passenger side only and lower it and raise it fron there

At your own risk lol... i had my drivers side door replaced after an accident somewhat recently, I had a similar issue - partial roll down fine, but no up. I rolled them all the way down and held it until I heard an almost click sound, and then everything worked as usual amd rolled back up.

Not a troll post.. maybe a reset feature lol

That is the reset feature. :cheers:

Awesome, don't mind me reinventing the wheel over here. Also drunk post :cheers::slap:

lol Cheers :cheers::slap:

The reset doesnt work, ive tried, dealer tried and a few morr have tried. Sorry to thread jack
