Outer Limits 4x4 Board

98 Challenger.

Problem: Front Passenger window switch does not wind window down. It does up no worries, but not down.

Complication: If Driver's side switch is used to wind window UP, and Pass window sw is pressed DOWN, then window stops, as you'd expect for a fully functional switch.

I have not yet pulled the door apart and test-lighted /Multimetered the switch.

Any ideas what might the problem, and why it acts like that?

contacts on the back are arcing out.. well thats what mine was clean them and then put a little bit of solder where it touches so it gets a better contact

Cheers, I'll check it out.

I rebuilt the drivers door sw on my NF Pajero a while back using relays etc (could afford theMM original). The wiring may be simalar


Basically ground is supplied from the drivers switch up - passenger sw up - window motor - passenger sw down to drivers sw down to ground.

All the switchs are make and brake contacts, ie ground is always connected though the switch until it is activated.

When a switch is activated it connects to volts

i.e passenger sw up is activated (connected to 12 volts) - window motor - passenger sw down to drivers sw down - ground
