Sunroof Open rained windows wont work
I accidently left my sunroof open and it rained last night. The windows won't work, and the sunroof wont close, as well as the AC screen and climate controlls wont work. Anybody else have this happen? I figured i could hairdry it somewhat but dont want to start taking things apart. Any ideas?
i took the cneter cluster out and let it dry inside over night, when i plugged it back in this morning and turn on th elights the buttons will light up, but the windows still wont move up or down. The rear window buttons in the back seat wont work either. on a good note i got the climate controll back
If you took out the center cluster containing the window switches, make sure you reconnected the wires which operate those switches, in front of the passenger side of the cluster. A good cleaning of the connection to displace water should help, andensure sure no corrosion is present.
for immediately sorting it out...
Take out centre clusterstorage box & use a hair dryer all around inside it on medium heat,
aim at rear of electric window switches too.
Take a good 10-15 mins to do this.
allow to cool completely, leaving lid open.
as long as you are careful, everything should sort itself out within a few switch actions.
if sunroof is affected too, remove roof switch panel & apply heat same treatment.
if still not sorted, locate & check the relays for electric windows & electric seat controls.
check for dryness - renew fuses or dry off as necessary.
works everytime for me!
