Default jammed window!!!

...such a little thing, but so annoying. My driver side window seems to be jammed.

The window does not respond to the automatic button, nor does it do its half-inch up/down action when you open and close the door. The passenger side window works fine.

What's odd is that I had the same problem a while back. I open/slammed the door and everything was back to normal. Then, like months later (ie, now), it is not working. And, no amount of door slamming has un-jammed the window.

Anyone know some tricks to get it working again? Shorting a fuse? Banging the door in a specific place, etc, etc?

Sadly, the forum search engine is down...

All/any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Jason

Default Have you tried opening/closing the window using the key in the drivers door?

It may be a bad electrical or intermittent connection. Have the dealer diagnose it.

Default Re: jammed window!!!

Hello Della, my name is Tim and I had the same problem you do. I
tried the fix that someone else recommended, which is from the A6 FAQ,
of rolling the window all the way up, releasing the switch, and then
holding it again for 1 second. This did not work for me though, so I
tried something else.

This is what I did, and it worked.
I rolled the window all the way up, and while still holding the button
in the up position, I shut off the ignition and then released the window
button. When I turned the ignition back on, the window worked fine.

I don't know if you've had this problem fixed yet, but hopefully this
helps you out.

Best regards, Tim M.
