Re: ek power window problem....HELP!!!!!!!!

did you try lubricating the tracks at all? did you test to see if any current is flowing to the switch? could be a wiring issue in the door, where the black rubber sock is.

I'm having a similar problem.

In terms of lubrication, what would be your best recommendation so it stays potent in the rubber window track?

Re: ek power window problem....HELP!!!!!!!!

i would not recommend white lithium grease, it will stain all over the place and get on the window. it is supposed to be used on metal, not rubber. use clear silicone spray lube. it only lasts a couple months, but easy to spray when you need to by rolling the windows down.

The rubber tracks are pretty slick on their own & are made to work as is... just keep them clean.

Any lubricant you apply will attract dirt.
