Electric Window Playing Up

Recommended Posts

Last week the driver's window started misbehaving...

It would partially close and then re-open before fully closed (entrapment/overload sensor?)

It would fully open, but then could not be closed for around 10 secs (thermal cutout?)

Generally slower operation than accustomed to, but it has also been going slow then fast alternately during operation (as if it was struggling at certain points of its travel)

Significantly, the window has been opened/closed twice every weekday for 4 years to allow use of an ID proximity tag at the secure car park at work

Just got back from the local Toyota dealer who removed the door trim to check whether the guides had misaligned. They were ok, but everything was very dry. Continued use must have removed any traces of lubricant. The mechanism has been lubricated and the window works perfectly again ☺️

Anyone else had similar problems?

Do you have any silicon spray? If so squirt a small amount in the glass run at the top vertical, as also this can cause the anti trapping to activate over time when it is dry, any resistance and it activate it. ;)
