Window anti pinch feature information?

Post by Rob5464 »

I have been looking for information but so far nothing has come up. I have bought some Heko wind deflectors, but the anti pinch feature is stopping the window from fully closing.

I tried disconnecting the battery to re-calibrate the window, but to no joy. Ideally I would just like to unplug the sensor or ECU. But I don't know where either of these are or what they look like.

I think it's part of the motor itself.

Try lubricating the window rubbers with silicone maintenance spray, see if that helps.

I have tried but it doesn't want to go up, I will try lubing the seals.

Failing that, if the mechanism is part of the motor I will see if the motor on my 306 fits.

I could try trim the rubber seal, so its not so tight on the glass. But if it doesn't work I will need to buy a new seal. As water will get in without the deflector.
