Power window relay or circuit breaker is...?

Post by Ippie »

Can anyone show me where this relay/circuit breaker is?
I have been looking for it but can't locate it...

Here are the photos from my 96'/2000cc/V6/5 doors/Auto (H20A).

Power windows problems...

Post by Impulsive »

In the first photo, you can see a little can with a flat grey bottom and a tiny hole in it.

If you stick something small in that hole, you will press a momentary switch. That will reset the power windows.

Thx million for your reply!
This will reset the power windows?
Reset? From what? To what?
This would make the power windows work again?
Is this the relay?
;)
U mean this hole?

Guys!

I'm sure it's the relay as the wire colour are correct!
But, nothing happened when I reset the relay(circuit breaker).
I didn't feel any click when I poked the hole with a stick.
So it's the switches unit on the door???
:?

either replace the relay and or take the switches out and earth the pins out on the door plug to put the window manually up or down.

follow the wiring diag for this one.

Was the circuit breaker or the switches set of yours?

I guess it's done with one of the previous owners.
I don't think I would re-wiring these as everything is functional.
I assume the wire thru the Hazard fuse is for the alarm as the lights would blink when I arm/disarm it.
But not sure what the other is for.

not sure about the SV620 but the Grandie had a problem of crushing the wiring harnes under the drivers seat on the side of the trans tunnel tripping the windows out constantly so if the switch tests ok and have power at the switch could be a place to start

It was the relay/circuit breaker. Although my windows didn't work because the plastic door switch broke, and then I damaged the relay trying to manually bridge the switch to get the windows back up. ( had to drive through a thunderstorm with a raincoat on by the way).

I took out the switch unit from my friend's.
And guess what?!!?!?!?!!??!
Mine worked on his and his didn't work on mine.

I tested the wiring and there're current(power) to the switch unit, for the power windows and central look...
Really don't know what's wrong with mine.....
