Window judder (drivers side)

Featured Replies

Hi, i was hoping someone may have some info on a issue with my wife's Fabia monte carlo drivers electric window?

It randomly judders going up and down, sometimes even stops dead and you have to release the window switch and try again.

The really random part is that it doesn't always happen and doesn't happen at all when using the "one shot" lower and raise window function.

I inspected the door look wires earlier and soldered the heated wing mirror wire back together that had snapped. There was also a broken black and red wire which I again soldered and shrink wrapped together. On inspection off all the other wires they are fine (no exposed wire or breaks).

I've searched the forums and googled it, but haven't had any joy so far.

What year is the car?

Mk2s had three different versions of window motor module through their years.

I have an idea of an experiment to try, but it wouldn't be relevant for the earliest version.

Thank you for the reply, it's a 2014 plate if that helps?

I've come across cases where the earth to the switchpack is poor, but not completely 'gone'.

Try lifting the switchpack out, and add another, good earth to the brown wire on pin 1 of the switchpack loom connector. See if anything changes.

Other thing you could try if feeling adventurous is to disassemble that loom connector by defeating the latch and sliding the two halves (brown and black) apart. Then extract white/black and black/green wires and swap their positions so white/black is now on 4.

That would effectively make the switches operate the opposite windows to what they did before. See if the problem moves to passenger side.
