Re: Please help! Window circuit breaker

doesnt matter all the switch does is open or close the circuit so it actually makes the two wires make contact to close the circuit, it don't matter

Re: Please help! Window circuit breaker

is it your windows locked up on you , if it isnt the breaker ,then it is your comfort relay located under the dash under steering wheel.

Re: Please help! Window circuit breaker

hey crip...what problem did you have with your window? my passenger window has been acting funny for a couple of months now...everytime i try to close it it stops...the only way to close it is to keep pushing the button until it fully closes...this problem isn't really consistant either...it will do this half the time i use the window...maybe this could be a quick fix if this is what happened to your car...thanks for your time...
