Well I finally got around to replacing my old Bose door speakers with new ones. While I had the passenger door panel off I decided I'd clean the contacts on the window switch. It was pretty corroded but was still working. After reassembling the switch and putting the panel back on, the window would not go up or down. I was sure I screwed something up in taking the switch apart. After a couple of hours of disassembling and reassembling the switch and trying to measure voltage I was stumped.

I couldn't even make it go up or down with the driver's side switch. It was then that I realized what a dumb *** I was...... the child safety switch on the driver's side was on!!

I only admit this so that no one else has to make this stupid mistake! Anyway, all is well now and I'll never make that mistake again!

 

happen to the best of us....except the pain is usually over in a minute or two after the common sense kicks in

 

lol that sucks

 

Heh, happened to me once too. I was like "Damn...motor gone bad or something." After checking things out later that evening, found out the safety switch was on! Doh!

 

LOL, I'll definetely keep that in mind since I'll need to clean the contacts as well sooner or later.

 

yea i thought my window switch was broken for like 2 months one time....hehe

 

I had my dash apart plugged in the cluster to see how the new lights looked. Took me a couple hour of sorting through the stupid wiring diagram before I realized I needed the dimmer switch plugged in. Too bad I figured it out. Any more time and I would have bit the bullet and ordered a race dash. It stupid stuff like that that makes projects take way too long.

 

haha i have done this as well

 

damn I am also guilty. LOL

 

Hmmm, errr, ahh, oooh, yeah me too. Damn switch!

 

Guilty am I... almost took it do a damn shop, lol.

 

I've done it. Took off the door panel and everything.

 

What speakers you put in there? Just newer OEM Bose?
