Power window module 94 Jetta????
Is there some master module that controls the power windows when you use the
key in the door handle? Or what controls them? always trying to learn and understand! TIA later, dave (One out of many Daves) |

Each window motor has a control unit integrated with the motor. What's your
issue? "dave" > wrote in message ... > Is there some master module that controls the power windows when you use > the > key in the door handle? > Or what controls them? > > always trying to learn and understand! > TIA > > later, > dave > (One out of many Daves) |

Hi Woodchuck,
One day as the snow was melting I locked the car up, went to run an errand, came back to this 94 Jetta and all of the doors were unlocked and all windows were rolled down. Not too cool in the wintertime. Or should I say TOO cool. lol I tried to roll them up and lock the doors and sometimes I could get them to go up and lock but they would roll down and doors unlock at different times. I can be standing outside of the car after I had gotten the windows up and the doors locked. I would hear clicking in the left rear door and maybe trunk too (power door lock module) and then the doors would unlock and the windows would come down. Might be after a few minutes too. I had checked the wiring from the LF door to the post and it seemed in good shape. I thought maybe water got into the door lock/latch microswitch and tried to dry things out with a heat gun. I disconnected the alarm. I disconnected and reconnected the battery. All of the above made no difference except after reconnecting the battery ALL windows rolled down and stayed down. I finally disconnected the power door lock module and the windows and doors, with the exception of the power locks, seem to function. I think it needs an exorcist! lol Do you think it is a faulty microswitch in the left door? thanks, dave "Woodchuck" > wrote in message ... > Each window motor has a control unit integrated with the motor.

There is a micro switch mounted on the left front door latch which has 3
wire connector. Just unplug it, and since you should still have a keyed right door you can check the system function from there.

Of course I will hook up the alarm and power door module again. ;-) Thanks Woodchuck. later, dave (One out of many daves) |
