Advice appreciated after jumpstart my drivers side window went down and will not go up

[Andy b]

After jump starting my 350z the drivers side window went down and will not go up

I have had the RAC out who and still not resolved the problem

[ZEUS]

Does the passenger side still work? Could be fuse or need a reset or the motors decided to start sticking.

1. Disconnect battery negative terminal or power window switch connector. Reconnect it after a minute or

^ This. I have the same issue, especially if it's a wet day. Give the door card a wack whilst pulling the window switch.

Try Ebized's procedure first. If that doesn't solve it, you'll probably needs to reset the electronics on your zed. I had similar issue when I replaced my internal lights with LED. Windows goes down but doesn't goes back up. Heated set stops working, can't lock my car via key fob. I sent it to Nissan and they can't find a fault but they said the reset my zed's electronics. It solved the problem.

 

Maybe someone here knows how to reset ? some sort of pedal dance??

I had this - caused by a build up of carbon brush debris inside the window motor. That's why whacking it fixes it - it moves the gunk off the contacts.

 

Took a couple of hours max to fix, not a difficult job at all, defo a DIY job. Just get the motor out, then open up the motor (couple of screws) then give everything a good clean. A light sanding afterwards on the contacts to get them nice and shiny then its good as new.

 

There's a DIY guide somewhere for this...
