Electric window problem

[R1ch85]

Just picked up my cupra on wednesday and have discovered a problem with my electric windows... they dont wind all the way down!

I've searched for solutions and tried everything i can find and nothing has worked does anyone have any idea what i can do to fix it?

The most recent thing i tried was to wind window up on auto and stop it getting to top by putting my arm in the way. This makes the window roll back down on its own. Once it reached its stopping point, i tried to wind window down further and it does go down a little further but then stops sounding like something is blocking it?? THe motor sounds like its trying to go down but cant go any further, yet when it goes down on the one touch, it stops with about an inch left to go Then the auto doesnt work until i get window back to top again.

Can anyone shed any light on this or will i have to take it back to the dealer? Its pretty annoying, particularly in multi storey car parks tryin to reach for ticket!

Just a thought, you haven't fitted any new door speakers recently have you? That causes the window to jam how you're describing.

the window needs resetting matey holding up on 1 click wind the window right up and then cick to the second click up when at the top hold it there for 10sec approx then hold down on the 1 click and when at the bottom hold down on two clicks for ten seconds then use the auto open close to see if it has worked works with most vags mercs beemers ect

when you get behing the door card to change the speakers or whatever your doing have a look and make surenothing is obstructing the runnerers and the window but if not then on the inner pannel behind the door card the regulator is rivvited to this ive got a feeling that the regulator motor has been removed at some point and has been incorrectly replaced

hmmm, well ive changed my speakers now and seen nothing that could be in the way, at least on the front part of the window.. i cant get to the back without removing the inner skin part but im not sure how to go about that. The motor doesnt look like its been moved from the outside and it looks exaclty the same as my last ibiza so maybe a trip to dealer? Never noticed on test drive as it was pissin with rain!

It really is a pain in the ass having everything riveted, makes it impossible to take tihngs apart then re-assemble them!

On the plus side my speakers sound good lol

just read this thread and thought i would have to reset ecu to fix my passenger window which seemed to be knocking the bottom of the door when it would auto stop (prob safety thing), now its fixed yay!
