Hey guys has anyone had this happen, took the top down and the windows went down as normal but the drivers window will not go up, passenger side is fine ? any ideas? no whirring sound or anything on drivers side, just dead

 

Window motor most likely. Similar thing happened to mine as well before I got the window motor replaced...trying beating the door from the inside til it shakes the motor a bit and maybe it'll start working enough for you to close it? There's a great DIY on here that shows you how to replace the motor and or clean the existing motor for the time being.

 

Thanks for that, bugger was hoping there might be an easy fix, I think a window motor will be mega $ here in new zealand

 

this started happenikng to me when i installed my sound system i still need to replace the drivers side motor and their not cheap so i feel your pain lol well gdluck

 

I feel your pain

This might help...might wanna try repairing it though it's only temporary.

Shouldn't be too horribly bad. If you have the car there then nissan should have the parts available to fix it.

 

You can go to Autozone and buy one, it will be a rebuild but they offer a life time warranty on the part. You get a your core fee back after returning the old part. This is the best fix and definitely a cheaper alternative to the dealership. To get your window back up just slam the door while holding the window button. Good Luck

 

thanks guys for the replies ....haha no such thing as autozone here in nz, and the dealer will have to bring a motor in from japan........the joys of living in kleen green nz lol

 

So my passenger side window has been doing this thing were it rolls itself back down once its rolled up all the way. Doesn't matter if I use the auto up function, or roll it all the way up, it still rolls down about 4 inches. Luckily, if I hold the switch up for like 5-10 secs it locks the window up (after I hear a click noise in the window).
So I saw in this thread ( https://my350z.com/forum/maintenance-...dow-motor.html ) at the bottom there were windor regulator reset procedures. I'll give that a shot and see if it fixes the problem.

 

thanks for the heads up guys, the old slamming the door trick worked fine

 

it will work for a while (mine did) until it went out and i replaced my own and saved $$$$ good luck with the issue
