[rottodiver]

G,day everyone,
Anyone know of an aftermarket or "better priced" electric window switches for gu,s ...
$62 seems to be the best price for a switch I can find ....

Sadly I think they are OEM, some guys have modified switches, but OEM is the go. Even 2nd hand from the wreckers they are close to new price.

Hey Scotty, your doing well at that price... I haven't found one under $100 yet


TAPPN OUT

[rottodiver]

Pull them apart and that bloody microscopic ball bearing will pop off the spring never to be found again. I like your suggestion.

Not doubting this worked, but i can't see how you managed to get the spray to the contacts ?

Here is the rear switch from mine, to get to the contacts, the spray has to travel down between the door trim and the switch cover (bit you push/pull) , then bounce back up inside, then go back down to the white section, then get under the switch slide cap, up over the wall, then onto the contacts ?

Where do you spray and How much do you have to pump in ?


BTW, the rear window switches are easy to pull apart and service, the springs are not under huge tension so ball bearings are easy to collect (work in a empty bath if your not sure, but put plug in,lol)

Just put a small amount Dielectric Grease on the ball bearings, then they will stick to the springs for easy re-asssembly.

The rears will also fit front passanger, probably driver side too

Front passenger yes, Drivers door is a cluster and set up is totally different...

Hey O4OFF,

If you end up buying a new switch can I buy your knacker switch off you? Or anyone off this thread for that matter!

When fitting new rear door speakers before Christmas I split one of the rear switches getting it out of the door card and split the bloody thing in the wrong spot and it spat the bearing and spring to god knows where!!! I found everything bar the spring!!!' I just need the spring!

If you have a dead switch lying around I'd be real keen to grab that bloody spring please!

Cheers in advance to anyone that may have a dead switch!

[rottodiver]

I just bought 2 new ones so when they arrive I can send you one of mine.. Pm addy if you want it!

Sorry mate , there was no problem with my window switches, i actually only pulled them apart to take photos for this thread :tongue:


sound like rotto has you covered, but if that falls through, let me know and ill try and match a spring up and sent it to you

[Clunk]

Find someone who owns an Xtrail and rip theirs out.... I'm sure they won't mind ;)

Don't stroke it, TAP it!!!!.....

[my third 256]

yes i know what your saying but it worked go figure
about a 2 to 3 second spray

He-he, yeh , i just really wanted to try and understand how the spray could get in, as i remember the switches being quite well sealed if you left you window down and it rained.

Wont be long, just waiting for the neighbour to give me a lift out with the Crank ! :tease:
