Window Regulator, Troubleshooting
Prior to changing a window regulator, due to a binding condition, please follow these steps:
NOTE:
-
Glass must be tight on the clamp carrier of the window regulator.
-
The window channel opening must be uniform and consistent all the way around the opening and at the weld joint at the lower A-pillar area.
-
If the glass is not going all the way down and/or a "clunk" noise occurs, check the motor programming using the VAS 5051 and check the system
for any malfunctions or Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC).
-
These steps must be performed when replacing the old motor with a new one or when the battery is discharged.
If door window binds in up (raised) position, activate pinch protection using following:
-
Raise window glass all the way up and press window up switch 2X (two times).
-
Lower window glass all the way down and press window down switch 2x (two times).
-
Cycle window glass up and down. You must hear a "clunk" noise, which means that glass is now fully seated on window regulator.
-
Cycle window up and down several times to verify effectiveness of the repair.
