Default Window wont roll up!

Alright my passenger side window rolls down fine, but will not roll back up. At one point in time you could hold on up the drivers side switch and the passengers side at the same time, and the window would roll up. Well now it wont work at all, I have vertical doors on the car and have check all plugs and wires, no pins are loose and no wires are crimped. Honda has the car now and put new swtiches in the car, but as soon as the installed them they burnt out again. Can anyone help me find an answer to this problem. Thanks

Jared

did you check to make sure the "window lock" button wasn't on?

"but as soon as the installed them they burnt out again."


sounds like an electrical problem. a direct short. a power wire touching ground before it reaches the switches.
the dealer tech must be cussing at you under his breath for having aftermarket vertical doors.

You're lucky they are even trying to fix it with the Vertical doors installed.

A friend of mine had vertical doors on his 350Z and he was having the same problem, and said it was one of his ground wires, does the sound right???

Who knows. A 350Z has nothing in common with a S2000's power windows.

It's going to take a experience tech that can read the ETM diagrams and figure out what wiring has been moved due to your vertical doors.

I'd be prepared to open you wallet W----I----D----E.

Well I took the car from my local Honda dealership because they are crooks, and had the car a month and still could not figured out the problem. The tech did tell me though he knows the wiring problem is inside the door, and thinks its coming from two "live" wires are touching. Does this sound right?? I'm asking everyone on here because I do not trust my local Honda dealership because of numerous friends of mine who have had them F*** their car up. Also the service manager didn't even know how the top worked on the S2000.
