Driver window - not closing

[MKI4EVA]

Anyone out there with this problem?

The window goes up and down several times before it fully closes and stays in the closed position.

Dam first generations!!!!

cheers.

Does it go up & down by itself before it will close or do you have to run it up & down to get it fully closed?

If it does it by itself then switch prob needs to have all the gunk cleaned out of it or its fighting with an aftermarket alarm system for control of the window.

If you have to run it up & down to close then the pulser circuit in the motor that tells the auto up when to stop is fuggered.Fairly sure you have to replace whole motor to fix the pulser.You also need an analogue meter(needle type) to test the pulsers operation,with 12V applied to the motor terminals(plug disconnected) the pulser terminals should oscillate the meter needle when the motor is running.Do not overrun the motor past window open or closed.

warranty duh... :)

Yeah i've had this happen twice to me... I wanna take it in but i was worried the dealer was gonna look at me funny coz its only happened twice in the last 6 months!

The drivers window goes up and then about an inch from closing it drops all the way back down again! Grrrrr.... the first time it happened i think i tried to close it over 30 times before it finally decided by itself that it would shut!

Thats it, back to the dealer tomorrow!

5 month old Honda???

Sorry dude,I didnt know what a MKI Honda eater was.I assumed you had something with tired old pwr windows like mine.

Possibly something electronic wrong with yours,dont they have post ignition timers & stuff like that these days.Possibly even got safety clutches also,which could be set too low........I dont know......ol' skooler here.....

could be the window regulator... hmmm, possibly motor

[yeehou]

Hey, I got this problem as well, it happened three days ago, when I try to close the driver seat power window, it shuts and open by itself (halfway)

[blk05gli]

i have the same problem with my 05 gli - took it to honda, could not recreate the problem, but it shits me as it only happens now and then, like this afternoon.

[blk05gli]

...this never happens with my EK, maybe thai vs japan build QC?

[Qwooootz]

do you think its the motor or the rubber?

if its the rubber try spraying SONAX dash spray within the rubber tried it on mind works fine, havnt had a problem in a year, also try re-aligning the interior door panel, i remember mine wasnt aligned right and when i did that window worked fine..!

goodluck

[MKI4EVA]

I'll happen more often if not already guys..........

annoying.......

i have a feeling the civics will fall apart in a few years........

[SINISTR]

first gen crx? the windows won't be electric!

[Whispaa]

Got that problem here as well, going to get it checked out on the next service in a couple of weeks.

Anyone got the problem fixed yet?

i had this problem, went back and saw the dealer, They sprayed silicon on the seals and my windows now work. i have tint they said that was the problem because it was the slight bit thicker.

[blk05gli]

thats what i was told, plus my tint is now starting to peel drivers window top right hand side........no a fault of honda though, hehehe.
