okay so i have my window down about 2 inches to let some air in while driving
suddenly the window just goes up by itself(driver side only)
try to wind it back down but it does nothing, i can hear the motor continuously trying to push it up but since its closed completely it stops momentarily and tries again in 3-4 seconds
tested the passenger window, seemed to go up and down fine, so i left it open a bit to let air in from that side
drove for another 5 minutes and the passenger side window decided to go up by itself and now realised i could hear the passenger side window doing the same thing at the same time
finally got to work this morning and turned off the car, but it kept trying to lift even though i've only got the acc and not reds
so now i'm under the assumption that either the switch has gone funky or the wiring to my alarm(it lifts both windows when you arm it) has gone funky
question one, has anyone else had this problem? if not chances are its time to rewire my alarm to my doors..
question two, as a temporary fix i've pulled out the driver side power window switch(unscrewed from the door trim and unplugged from the power window wiring harness), am i correct in assuming this'll stop all power window function for now? don't want it to be a fire hazard :(
