2007 SL Window sticks open

Submitted by okimic on Mon, 2007-12-10 16:12. 2004+ Nissan Quest

Drivers side window is sticking open.

When fully opened the window attempts to open then auto reverses. Sometimes you can use the manual (not auto up) feature to get it up. Other times it decides not to move at all and you need to shut the vehicle off and turn it back on.

Will be taking it back to dealer to see what is up.

I plan to report findings.

Same here

Submitted by mobil1 on Wed, 2008-01-02 12:17.

This just started happening on my '05 w/ 40k on it. I haven't brought it in to have it checked yet because happens so intermittently that I know I won't be able to reproduce it when I get it to the dealer. As a temp fix, I am avoiding rolling the window down all the way.

Dealers says normal, but...

Submitted by okimic on Wed, 2007-12-19 01:05.

The dealer claims it is normal for the window motor to heat as you roll it down. If you do not 'wait long enough' before rolling it up it will thermally protect itself and not roll up.

If that logic was correct, then wouldn't the passenger window do it too?

If I roll the passenger window up and down for about 2 minutes it will finally do the same thing. Start up and reverse then the window will not move. wait 15 sec or so and you can hear a faint 'click' sound in the door and then the window is fine.

So, I have the complaint logged at least, and will keep an eye on it, but something is not right in there to cause the motor to get hot enough to reach thermal limit on ONE roll down.

Same window problem

Submitted by GalaxyQuest on Thu, 2007-12-13 14:08.

Same problem on ours. It doesn't happen every time, so I haven't gotten annoyed enough to take it to the dealer. Let us know how the repair goes.

window problem

Submitted by heteromyid on Sat, 2007-12-15 02:49.

Not sure if this is the same problem or not, but we have a problem closing ours. You have to keep the switch pulled up on our 04 for about 5 seconds in order to keep it closed. If you just hold the switch up until it closes and then release, it will go back down about 6 in.

power window anti-pinch system problem

Submitted by wakramer on Tue, 2008-07-22 17:42.

Mine has the same problem even though it has been fixed before. The problem has to do with the anti-pinch system. The repair manual says that the anti-pinch system will lower the glass 150mm (5.91") when it senses a pinch.

Here is what they list as possible causes:

1. Door window sliding part malfunction
- A foreign material adheres to window glass
or glass run rubber.
- Glass run rubber wear or deformation.
- Sash is tilted too much, or not enough.
2. Limit switch adjusting
3. Limit switch circuit check LH
4. Encoder circuit check LH

In my case the first time it happened they adjusted the limit switch. I copy-and-pasted the reset procedure from the factory repair manual below. The reset-switch is on the window motor. I haven't tried this yet myself. Where they talk about not operating the window automatically, I understand that to mean using the first click position of the window switch (the second click is auto up/down).

Setting of Limit Switch
If any of the following work has been done, set the limit switch (integrated in the motor).
- Removal and installation of the regulator.
- Removal and installation of the motor from the regulator.
- Removal and installation of the glass.
- Removal and installation of the glass run.
Resetting
After installing each component to the vehicle, perform the following procedure to reset the limit switch.
1. Raise the glass to the top position.
2. While pressing and holding the reset switch, lower the glass to
the bottom position.
3. Release the reset switch. Verify that the reset switch returns to
the original position, and then raises the glass to the top position.
CAUTION:
Do not operate the glass automatically to raise the glass to the
top position.

window auto-close fixed

Submitted by wakramer on Fri, 2008-07-25 02:23.

I did the reset procedure this evening and it fixed the problem. The reset switch is accessed through a small hole in the steel right next to the speaker. I removed the inside door panel but now that I know where the reset switch is, I believe this could be done just by prying back the panel instead of removing it completely.

Our 06 has recently started

Submitted by PcolaScikotics on Sun, 2008-07-20 16:27.

Our 06 has recently started doing this also. Is there a switch relay that needs to be replaced or has anyone gotten that far into it yet?

Thanks!

window problem

Submitted by MCA Daddy on Wed, 2008-01-02 11:55.

My 04 SE has the exact same issue on the passenger window. the auto-up feature is very squirmy. The window goes all the way up the re-opens about 6 inches. We have to use the manual mode. On two seperate occasions, my wife has returned to the van to find all windows and power sliding doors wide open!!! It happened once on a very rainy day and completely soaked everything. I think I'll seek some Divine assistance for our Quest.
