Hi all,

I need help. i have a 1996 Integra 4 door. My front/right and rear/left windows are having problems rolling up and down. At first, I thought it was the motor, but it does roll down/up periodically. Then I thought it was the main power window switch, but it doesn work with the individual window switches either. they are able to roll down sometimes, but not up. which leaves me stuck. this is a real pain...so please help.

The front/left and rear/right work fine; always able to roll up and down.

any ideas?
thanks!

 

It's the motor.
It will sparadically work and not work and break and work and not work and break some more and go slow and speed up and get stuck and work wonderfully; until finally it fails.

 

I had a similar problem. My windows would would go down but they were struggling and my car is a 2001. I took it to the dealership and they said my tracks were dirty so they greased them with somthing (prolly silicone) but they work like new again. Also your tracks could be off to. Have you had your window tinted recently because they tend to get off track if the tinter does a poor job.

 

i removed my door panel and sprayed some silicone lube down the rails. try that, it's fast and cheap

 

Yes, i want to think it is the motor...but that wouldnt that be a weird coincidence that both windows (f/r and r/l) go out?

however, i will try siliconing it too. any chance it is the ground wire?

 

On my 96 2dr gsr my right passenger seat window will sometimes be screwwed up. But it only seems like it does it when its been wet outside or really humid. I'll hold down the window down button but the window goes down incredibly slow. Almost to a stop but it is still moving untill it gets to a certain point and it seems like the motor just kicks in and the window goes down normal all the way. I don't know whats up with it but it only does it on certain days so I've learned to live with it. Anyone have any ideas on why it does this?

 

Hey chrgsr96 ...you described the same problem i had with the window bogging out. the tracks are dry ..LUBE THEM

 

mmm lube it up..haha...How do you go about lubing the tracks up??

 

funny...i just took apart my door trying to fix the slow window problem today.

are you supposed to lube that horizontal rail on the very bottom? where that X looking thingee sits?

 

your supposed to lube the horizontal rail.
