Window winder switches
« on: 23 February 2011, 20:40:56 »
Hi guys

The switch that operates my driver's window is getting a little dodgy. If I were to pop the switch cluster out of the armrest, is it possible to swap the dodgy switch for one of the others?

All four look the same from the outside. Are they interchangeable?

Cheers,
Gaz

Hmm... Lots of views but no replies!

Maybe I'll take a look at it anyway and let you all know how I get on.

it will all depend whether it is the switch or the pcb that is knackered beneath it  :y

Remove the switch panel and the silicon pad over the switches, spray switch cleaner over the PCB and press each switch individualy to work it in.
That sorted my dodgy switch last year.  :y

Had trouble with switches a few times and a spray of electrical cleaner has always fixed it. Didn't even bother taking the switches out last time. Quick and easy fix!

Always worth keeping a can of electrical cleaner in the boot. Saved me once or twice.

Check out some of my posts, as i needed similar help. The whole unit is easy to get hold of and not too dear either.. Apparently easy to change too.

Why oh why was there never a V8 Omega????
Such a missed oppurtunity.
Look forward to the Cadillac ATS & ATS-V. Maybe a re-badged one will replace the Miggy as a RWD runner?
