98 Civic LX power window problem
98 Civic LX power window problem
The passengers' side power window will go down, but not up
It is getting power, and I can hear a click ONLY when I try to lower the window (the window is all the way down)
any ideas/suggestions?
thanks

Re: 98 Civic LX power window problem
With the engine off but key on position II... Turn on the dome light and watch it as you try to move the window up. See if and how much it dims the dome light as as you try moving the window. If it dims quite a bit then something may be bound (although you said it would go down) If it does not dim...it could be voltage not reaching the motor.

I had this same problem with mine and it got stuck down so i hard wired it to the battery real quick just to get it up. then i replaced the master switch on the drivers side and it fixed the problem so check that but the problem i have now is that for some reason a week and a half later same problem hapened with this master switch

From my understanding the window regulators on these cars are pieces of ****, very poorly designed.
I got the regulator replaced at a mom and pop auto repair place for around 70 bucks, including labor
