Re: Electric window only goes down three quarters of the way

Mine did this. Removed door card and then lowered the window and away she went. Put the door card on whilst the window was still down and should be good to go. Very strange indeed! I already tried this and it didn't work, think I'm going to have to go with the full strip down shortly as Alex sugges...

Electric window only goes down three quarters of the way
