I suggest that you first try to close the rear windows from the rear controllers and not the drivers door cluster.
Are both the rear windows acting up???

If they do close correctly from the rear controllers then you need to change the driver cluster. Some times you can pop it out of the door card and play with the connectors, that often helps.

Please reply and give a fuller picture of what you have tried so we can take it from there.

u cud take the door card off see if any the wires are lose or disconnected.. try find the proplem.. if its the window regulator u can go 2 a breaker get 1 from their or go 2 main dealer now i mite be wrong and tat mite not be ur proplem just hav good look at it and see wat u tink..

Again,the advice stroker kid has offered is sound.

Do those checks that he has advised and also check inside the window runner on the doors in case something is trapped, even moss or dry leaf that has built up over time can cause problems.

Why both rear windows???
Why at the same time???

Apply a little grease or baby oil into the runner first before you take the door card off (the runner is the part on the sides and top of the door that the glass slides up and down in).

If that does not work then remove both rear door cards and disconnect both motors. Then re connect only one of the motors and try that with the car running. If there is no change then buy 1 second hand regulator and see if it makes a difference.

Keep us posted please.

@stroker kid : i have checked all the wiring and no disconnected, everything connected as it is supposed , too.

@ElDopesta : i also have greased all the railling and nothing do any good.

i have had it with the power windows problems , so i took it to a local car garage and have it fixed by the pro. right now he took off the motor and try to fix it. i let you guys know as soon as i hear from the garage.

thanks you guys for your time.

 

[ElDopesta]

Good luck buddy. He may end up changing both the motors.

finally i had it fixed, i don't know what he did but he took both the motors out and fixed it, now both windows work as it is suposed to. and it only costs me appx. $15 US.

 

[ElDopesta]

I suspect that he used WD40 and some copper grease probably.

What a nice chap he is!!!

Glad your headache is a distant memory.

hanks for getting back to us.
