the driver side window motor just dies then somehow later on it wakes up again?
happen often?
does it mean that it will need to be replaced soon?
thanks

 

i'm not sure about your problem but i had my driver window motor replaced (warranty work) about 3 months ago and now i've got my local nissan dealership replacing the passenger one. parts have not come in yet but it will also be warranty work. thank goodness for that b/c the dealership said that it would be like 300 buck a piece to do the work.

 

Motor will need to be replaced. I am getting mine done next week

 

i've got an 03 as well. i hope the motors that they are using now last a little longer. 600 buck every 3 yrs is going to suck. might trade mine in and get some manual ones.

 

I had my window motor replaced last week. F@#king $600 =(

 

I had mine replace 3 times =/ I believe they had a recall on that. Mines a 04' iono just take it back..

 

i dont think there is a recall, but iv had both sides replaced and now the driver side is acting up again.

i wouldnt might having a manual so i wouldnt have to deal with this BS again and again..

 

hmmm i just called the dealer... my bumper-bumper warranty expired =(

 

just punch the door everytime it stick. Seriously, it works (this is actually what the service guys do to the car to get it to unstick).

In the long run, you need to get it replaced ... and guess what. Nissan did their job, they made something last only as long as they had to (warranty )

 

600.00 bucks !!!! that's just crazy. anyone make aftermarket motors? i think i could do the work. your paying for motor, not the labor.

 

actually...
i went out tried the window motor again
...
doesnt work
...
i reset the battery
...
doesnt work
...
then frustrated i gave the door a good ole jab as you mentioned...
...
WORKS!!!
window rolled up

 

Eventually the motor will die and have to be replaced. Tricks such as pounding on the inside door is a temporary fix. When it is dead it is dead.
