Question power window won't go down

Hey all,
New svx owner here with a bit of trouble. I recently installed an autopc with gps and noticed afterward my passengerside front window won't roll down though it does roll up. (motor hums on the up.. no sound down) I'm not sure if this occured because of my accidently disconnecting a wire or if something else went out, but the window did work about a day ago both ways before the radio install. I was wondering if anybody has a wiring diagram for the power windows I could look at to track this problem down or if anybody has experienced this before and knows whats going on? Thanks all.
-Justin

open your driver side power window switch and clean it up.
it will fix it. That is because the driver side cluster controls all. I had that happened to my 2 of my 3 SVXes I owned. I head scratcher really but cleaning the driver side cluster will do the trick.




How do you like your AutoPC so far. Let me know if you need software. Not much is around but...

cleaning the driver side switch will fix it? Its not going down with either the passenger side switch or the driver side switch. but it goes up with both. I'll give that a try if it works you are the man! The autopc is pretty nice.. the mp3 player with a 512meg compact flash works pretty well. I normally wouldn't buy such an expensive radio but the car is so nice it needs something to match. Send me an email at jnrdirect@yahoo.com and we can talk autopc software/hardware
