- Опубліковано 26 сер 2024
- When you're traveling in the rain, there is not much worse than having a window that won't go up. Buzz McQueen of BAT Boys in Branson, MO shows Danny Branson how to temporarily "fix" a car window that is stalled in the down position.
THANK YOU SIR, after a few hours of trying to fix it without any result, I tried your fix and it worked in the first attempt !!! My car is a Toyota Corolla 2002.
That is good to hear. Thank you for letting us know!
I slammed the door 100 times out of frustration but NEVER thought to hold up the switch at the same time. This LITERALLY just saved our trip.! Thank you SO SO SO much! 🙏🙏👏👏
Great to hear! Thanks for letting us know. Your comment may have helped others.
Me too slammed the hell out of my door never thought to hold the button while doing lol
Thank you so much! Late on a Saturday afternoon, holiday weekend, and window stuck all the way down. I used your advice and it went all the way up. You're a life saver!
You sir deserve an amazing award!!! I just did this with and screamed with exteme excitement running all the way back into my house 🤣😂 Thank you!!!
I swear to you I was 98% suspicious and doubtful. It absolutely worked!!! That just blew me away. My car has been soaked for three days in a row. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much. I am almost 40 and I have worked on cars since my teens. Never heard of this before, but you just made my whole weekend with it. Got my mother in laws window up and diagnosed in less than 5 minutes. Not a life saver but she sure feels like it. Thank you again. New subscriber
Way to go. Thank you for letting us know!
You rock man. Just went into the garage, closed the door twice and the window went up!! Awesome!! I spent the past 2 hours searching and thinking I needed a new motor. Still do probably but now I can at least drive around. Thanks again.
Thank you, this saved me on a cold winter day! Slamming was the easy part because this window already pissed me off 😂
Yes, it felt good to get out my aggression too by slamming it.
Q
😂😂😂😂
loooool
Yeah I had no problem slamming it. I was mad. Lol
Success on the 4th slam on my 2013 VW Passat with 55k miles.
My windows have never failed and first time was today. I rolled my driver window all the way down before vacuuming my car. 10min later it would not roll up at all. I ran the vacuum over my doorsill but I cant imagine that matters.
I came across this video. The first three slams didn't work but after the fourth try I saw that my window was no longer rolled all the way down. There was only about 1 inch of glass showing and it happened so fast I never saw it move even though I never looked away.
With a few more door slams I was able to roll my window all the way up.
I am going to go share this video with a few friends now. Thanks for posting!
Thanks for sharing. We're glad to hear it helped you!
Oh wow, this really does work. I had been trying to fix this for a while. My wife watched this and told me about slamming the door. I was thinking whatever, but decided to try it. After slamming it hard, while she held the switch, and to my disbelief it went up. Thank you for this easy fix, and her smart searching.
Thank you so much! Had my window regulator go and couldn't get the window up. To make matters worse I had to get the window up to remove the regulator. My dad and I got the window up. I slammed the door and tried the switch while he pulled the pane up. I can now replace the regulator myself and you guys have saved me a lot of money. Thank you!
My window has been stuck 1/2 an inch from closed for over 3 months. My husband and I were starting to panic with the upcoming snow, but I found your video and gave it a shot. It worked!! Thanks for saving us time and money!!
Fantastically valuable advice! Hurricane Harvey is heading our way and my window stuck in the down position on the drive home. Facing 4 straight days of rain, that was not a pleasant prospect. Tried your quick fix and it was an immediate fix. You bought me time to get the problem permanently fixed, after the storm.
OMG THANK YOU!! I live in a sketchy neighborhood and can't go to my mechanic for 3 days. I had to pull up on the window as hard as I could and slam it about 6x but it worked!
thanks to you, I've just fixed it, a passenger window that was completely opened and didn't want go back; I brought my old van to one mechanic, he said: it is something with electrical system, I can not fix it; then I go to another station, they were closed on Saturday, and I have to drive tomorrow morning 45 minutes to work, it looks the storm and rain is coming; you and your video help me; thanks to god there are such smart people like you share your wisdom and experience; THANK YOU SO MUCH
I've been daily driving a Civic for 2 years with a back window that was cracked just enough to let in a lot of wind noise but it wouldn't roll up. I found this and thought it was too good to be true but sure enough on the second slam it worked! Thank you for this video, so much easier and cheaper than tearing the door apart to try and replace parts.
THANK YOU! I've been meaning to get this fixed for days, but today it was completely stuck all the way down and I had to drive to work that way in the freezing cold. This was so helpful!
Omg.. Thank you so much..i was house sitting and took without permission the Lincoln navigation vehicle and damn window in back door refused to go up after i rolled it down.. I was close to having a heart attack and for 3 hours i watched videos and nothing.i called dealership and of course they said bring vehicle to them so they can charge arm and leg and when my hope was dimmed i couldn't stop shaking of fear of loosing my job for taking vehicle with no permission i found your video.. I went outside slammed tf out of door and biiiiingo!you saved me money i didnt have for dealerships and you saved me my job!can i have an address so i can send you flowers and a thank you note? 😆.. No lie i will!... Thanks a million ❤
I want to give you props on letting people know that secret on slamming the door . I say secret because every other UA-cam mechanics are not letting that secret out . There’s all started with first taking the panel off and testing everything that has to do with a power window. I want to thank you very much for putting your UA-cam vid out . It helped me when I was having a long busy bad day .
We are glad it helped. Thanks for letting us know!
here over a decade later to say thanks; it worked
It's a classic! LOL Thanks for watching!
My 18 year old son just drove across state to visit his girlfriend in college. He rolled his window down just before he got there and it wouldn't go back up - and checked the fuse to no avail. He was pretty discouraged after watching all the videos on UA-cam because all he really wanted to do was visit with his girlfriend, NOT work on his car. I stumbled across this video and .. well, let's say .. I'm the most favorite mom and YOU sir, are our most favorite mechanic.
Sounds like a horny lil bastard!
@@pimpinyamama7613 well hes 18
Corrine, don't leave us hanging, it's been 3 years...are they still together, are you a Grandma? Do tell... 😄👶
@@APRIL916 haha, nope, not yet. He has a different long term girlfriend now, my older son and his girlfriend just adopted a puppy and my daughter dislikes children. It's all good!
wow was quoted over 300$ to get my window fixed and tried this now it works flawlessly everytime, thank you i love you
Glad it worked! Please remember though that like Buzz said, this is not a permanent fix.
This video was very helpful. My daughter rolled her window down and then the window refused to come back up and with a great deal of rain showers coming in the area tonight I panicked. After watching this video and actually doing this. It allowed the window to roll back up with ease. Now the windows are back on child lock. Thanks to the maker of this video. You saved me a few hundred bucks today and I will get that window repaired asap.
OMG !!! I love youuuuuuuuu !!!! It worked the first time I did it. Now I can go to sleep n not worry, cause my window was going to be down all night. Thank you Jesus !!! N bless you for your awesome tip. Goodnight.
So glad it helped!
Thanks so much, I tried checking all the fuses, cleaning all the related ground cables, taking the door apart and lifting it manually but after watching this I knocked on the windoe motor once with a hammer (since I had just exposed it) and it rolled all the way up! 😄
Glad it helped. This technique will work on many things as a temporary fix...except when it doesn't LOL
You just saved me from getting soaked, because I'm about to drive i to a rainstorm, and I had to pull over to get my window back up. So glad I found your video. It started raining less than a minute before I tried your trick, and it worked!
Glad we could help!
Thank you so much!!!! Didn't slam the door because I already had the panel off. So I just tried banging on the motor with the screw driver. It worked!!! Got it up 2 seconds before it started to pour down rain (literally)! These videos are a HUGE HELP for single struggling mothers!!! Thanks again!!
Thank you so much...it worked! My driver side window was all the way down. Tried slamming it several times, it did not work. I let the passenger side down held the up button on the driver side, slammed the door and up went the window..Thank you Jesus! Thank you sir and God bless you. Just subscribed..
OMG this just happened to us in the middle of a rainy day and this video saved us! Thank you so much!
Glad to help!
Thank you thank you thank you!! Have been trying to fix my mom's car window that wouldn't come up and first slam and it worked! You have been a lifesaver! From my Mom: God bless you, your children and your grandchildren for sharing this tip!
Ok, easy now. We get that you’re now very happy but jeez! 😆
I looked at the a few videos on replacement - which will come next and had tried shaking and bumping with the switch up. When I saw this video I thought it was like what I had already tried until I watched the video and saw a few comment from others with colorful adjectives about how hard to slam the door. Son-of-a-gun! One really good slam and the sucker came right up!!!! Thanks. At least I can drive until the replacements parts come in. I bought my Frontier new in 2009 out still has less than 100K and I have taken care of it. The nickel and dime accessories seem to be the only thing I have faced over the past year. Thanks for saving my bacon!
Thank YOU!
OM Gosh this trick worked!!! Thank you so much you saved me a night of unrest and not to mention FRUSTRATION.... you are the man.
You're welcome!!
You just saved me $50! This is the coolest trick ever... I am so glad I Googled this and came across your video! Thank you 😊
50$ for what
@@Master-zp5pn $50 for a window regulator or motor I'm assuming. The thing is, April's window probably broke more permanently not long after this. As they say in the video, this could get you out of a bind but it's most likely starting to break.
I was watching this video and then my neighbor came and we watched it together. He said this video really changed his life and it touched my heart. My village people are so grateful. Am proud to say cool post wow thanks for sharing
Omg my window wouldn't go up. Started to panic. Searched UA-cam for a quick answer or fix. Found your video. Said a prayer 🙏 and abracadabra.....its now working now no issues. Thanks a million 👍😊 👍
Great to hear, but remember it's only a temporary fix.
I had problems with a rear window not wanting to roll down. After so many years I saw your video and tried it. And it worked. It rolled down as I whammed the car door shut while pressing the button down. Thanks a lot. Now I don't need to go to the mechanic and spend so much money for nothing.
Glad it helped!
Worked. Now im keeping that window closed until i can get it looked at.. Thanks man. Just got this car so i was a little heated about it. . thank you !!!!!
Thank you so much! It is freezing out and my window got stuck in that position! Not only did it fix the issue for now, but now I have the right diagnosis (short in the armature). So very appreciated!
I tried pulling it with pliers and was about to take the door off. But decided to see what youtube offered. Im so impressed. Thanks again. Oh and my window was all the way down . It took just one slam.
Holy cow. I just did it and it worked. This really works! About to get at least half a foot of snow this evening, so this trick saved my butt. Awesome!!
Glad it helped!
My useless ass boyfriend wouldn’t come help me pull my window up this video literally saved my day 😭💕
Best comment in a while! Thanks for letting us know.
Hope you got a new one.
Bf i mean.
I have one that IF he gets involved, he ALWAYS makes it worse. You keep using UA-cam, girlfriend. I'm with you.
I hope he gets a new gf , he deserves better than you .
I can relate 🙄
I was fully prepared to rip my whole damn door apart lol thank you my good sir you are a true life and money saver worked on the first slam and i barely slammed it 👏👏👏👏
Hi from LOCK DOWN Normandy France spent ages trying to fix my window your fix did the trick many thanks. Good Luck
Thanks for letting us know James. We are glad that it helped!
Sir, you’re a hero! My window got stuck on the freeway during a rainstorm. First slam, boom! Worked like a charm!
I laughed when i watched your video, thinking it would never work. Tried it anyway, and now my window works. Thanks a million!
Sorry for the non-reply earlier. I'm glad it helped. I hope it continued to work for you.
Thank you!!!!!! this worked!! YOU SIR DESERVE AN AWARD!!
Thank thank thank you. I live in the PNW and it rains like crazy. Wife’s Q7 window gave out, went and looked at Audi videos….. no one could help, but you my man came through 💪🏿 I truly appreciate you. Now time to give up a testicle to get this thing fixed 😂
im at work stressing about paying for this , and I came upon this video worked the first try on my 2008 chevy impala thanks soooooooooooooooo much
You just helped me after like 15 minutes of frustration, thanks!
It worked perfect after being stuck down for three days!! Thank you!
This is awesome. My sons window was fully in the door stuck. Tried this and it made the motor start again and window came up. This was with a 1985 Mercury. Great tip!!
This saved me! Stopped by my ATM before work and couldn't get my window rolled up. Thank goodness for this video. I'd be driving home with the windows down in single digit temps if it wasn't for you!
That is what the internet needs more of. So glad we could help you with your window, and you returned the help by commenting.
Thank you.
First slam and it worked !!!! I'd love to buy u a beer someday

3 slams later... Praise God!! It worked just in time before it started pouring. My seat got wet so I put towels on the seat until I can air it out. When the thunderstorm started I knew I better do something fast. Thank God for UA-cam!!
Glad it helped! UA-cam is a real blessing at times like that.
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment!
MY MAN THANK YOU SO MUCH. Came home so tired and knew I wouldn’t be able to leave car outside window down & sleep. Worked on first try, now window back to normal. Luckily I found this video on first search! Thanks!

THANK YOU SO MUCH! It was raining and I thought I was hopeless! I will get it fixed for sure now ☺️
Thank you! I am borrowing a good friend's car and got they window stuck down... I know I'd be forgiven, but it feels so much better to return their car in the same shape I borrowed it. Thank you for the save! This was so easy.
You are so welcome! We're glad it helped!
