    Your repair is good. The problem I see, is, the crimping tool !! I have seen many flat type crimps just pull out and Like you pointed out, IF, you crimp too hard you can cut the wires. Invest in a V crimping tool. This tool puts a V crimp in to the butt splice and is OSHA approved. I can say that for a while it was a little difficult to find these V crimp tools but, now even Harbor Fright has them. They are worth the effort and the money to get them.

    Had a 2006 Honda Accord, that The driver window worked but none of the others. They didn’t work from the driver’s control nor from their own window control. I found a work around on you tube and did it and it worked. I connected 2 wires by the drivers control with a 10amp fuse. I have always wondered how this worked, any ideas? Thanks...Jim

    i have a 2014 VW CC and both the front and back passenger side windows aren't working. we checked the fuses and they're all good. we can't open the windows using the driver control switches or the doors' individual switches. we took the front door's switch panel off and it shows THAT window wasn't getting power.
    is it possible there's a pinched or broken wire in that door hinge that controls both the front and back passenger windows?

    I had the same problem. Take the door panel off, push the rubber-boot away from the door and Body. Pull the damaged wire carefully a little out of the door or car and try to make the joint inside the door with a short piece of wire. That way there won't be a repair right in the flexible boot, otherwise the repair is to stiff and will brake.

    Usually does this also affect the lock and unlock? I'm having the same issue for my 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. The driver side master switch only works for the two back windows and the driver side mirror that angles my blind spots. The passenger door locks and unlocks work and don't work at times and the button for the window going up or down doesn't work. I changed the fuses, and circuit breaker and still doesn't work. The wiring is the only thing I haven't checked. My father says it's the motor regulator. I doubt it.

    My passenger side window will only go down. It will not return back up. I checked the wires in between the door and that wasn't the issue as there are no broken wires. I can hear the motor engage when I press the switch to lower it, but it's already all the way down so it can't go down any further, and there is no noise that implies activation when I try to raise it. In addition, the power mirror, one of the lights for the third climate control knob and the light for the clock have all stopped working as well. Is this a wiring problem in the dashboard somewhere?

    • @ReptarKingoftheBrozone

      Check fuses in fuse box or it could have a circuit breaker rather than a fuse....and the breaker may be bad. Find a diagram for fuse box, in owner’s manual or online or on the inside of fuse box cover to help locate fuse/breaker

    I have a 2000 Chevrolet Tahoe. Afew years ago my passenger side rear window slowly quit working. I taped a piece of cardboard to it. I was unable to fix it on my own or afford to pay to have it fixed. I moved from California to Arizona in 2018. 1100 miles, I had to stop about every 30 or 50 miles to Re-tape it.....lol. I went through a whole roll of Duct Tape! LoL. Then my brother in law helped me. He took off my door panel and put a 2" dowel under the window to keep it up. Then this year the moter on the driver's side rear window went out..... more cardboard, No duct tape!!!!!!! My passenger side all around the window is messed up with tape residue I am UNABLE to get off. I tried paint thinner, goop off......it will Not come off. 😱😭😰

    DARN I JUST LOST POWER TO ALL MY WINDOWS, I SAW A REAL MECHANIC GROUND MY AC COMPRESSOR RELAY ONCE AND AFTER THAT WAS REMOVED WITH A NEW COMPRESSOR, 3 YRS LATER MY A/C COMPRESSOR WAS NOT COMING ON UNLESS I JIGGLED THE RELAY BUT THE COMPRESSOR WOULDN'T STAY ON(THAT GROUNDING WIRE WAS TAKEN OFF WHEN A NEW COMPRESSOR WENT IN 3 YRS BACK), WELL I THOUGHT I WOULD TRY GROUNDING THAT RELAY AND WHEN I POKED A WIRE IN THE RELAY SOCKET, I GOT A SPARK AND THEN MY POWER WINDOWS GOT STUCK DOWN, NO FUSE TO CK BUT i CKED THEM ALL ANYWAY BUT THERE WAS A CIRCUIT BREAKER FOR THE POWER WINDOWS AND IT CKED OUT FINE AS WE EVEN USED A WIRE IN THE RELAY BOX TO CONNECT BOTH ENDS OF THE CIRCUIT BREAKER CONNECTIONS BUT NO POWER. I HAVE TWO IDENTICAL MODELS OF THE SAME CAR SO I COULD SWAP RELAY BOXES UNLESS THE WIRING IS MORE COMPLICATED THAN JUST UNPLUGGING THE RELAY BOXES AND SWAPPING THEM BETWEEN THE CARS, I WILL STUDY THE WIRING DIAGRAM AND HAVE A MULTIMETER AND TEST LIGHT BUT I FIRST NEED TO STUDY UP ON TROUBLESHOOTING CIRCUITS, ANY IDEAS ON THIS? THANKS, THE TWO IDENTICAL CARS ARE 2000 DAEWOO NUBIRAS, I SWAPPED THE DRIVERS SIDE POWER WINDOW MASTER CONTROL SWITCHES AND THE MASTER SWITCHES WORK FINE ON MY OTHER CAR AND STILL POWER ON THE PROBLEM CAR, I ALSO SWAPPED ALL THE RELAYS BETWEEN THE TWO CARS AND NO LUCK.

    I wish mine was this simple. I have a nissan x trails. Relay, motor, regulator, wiring loom, switch and master switch all been replaced. Nothing will get my passenger window up! Itll go down fine just not back up. Ive taken it to auto mechanics no one can find an issue! Argh );
