    Power windows automatic Switch

    Anybody know the technical name of switches these are that are circled in red? The top one is the power lock and the second one down is the automatic power window switch out of my car. The lock still works but the window one doesn't. Just wondering if its possible to just to replace the switch as they want a fortune to replace the whole part. Thanks.

    I would look at the contacts first, they may be a simple 6 pin double pole double throw switch.
    You may need to dissasemble one to see how they are configured.
    Sorry im not helping much, i would take one apart so i knew what connects to what.

      Are you sure its the switch thats bad? It should be easy to check it with a meter. they could be double pole double throw, on-off-on momentary center off
      Probably easier to find one at an auto wrecker, or there could be after market ones on line. they do list similar items

        Look for a logo on the switches, to tell who makes them.
        In all likelihood, they are Kyungin, a Korean make and hard to find.
        You can get the whole door/window switch assembly off eBay or Ali.

        Usually the door wires break, in cold weather, at the hinge point.

            Depends on what car is this usually they are integrated with the board that is underneath. The board might be a part of the internal network (CAN) which contains other features in your car.
            I would try to fix this or as other suggest check wires.

              Thanks for all your suggestions. I was able to try a new switch and it still didn't work. So now I'm down to a wire, the motor or maybe a relay. The fuses are fine

                The motor in my opinion is the issue, here. The motors have a tiny switch that goes bad for some reason. The switch opens and breaks the power when the window reach full up or full down when in-travel.

                  It calls limit switch. It might need some service (I did it in my Sienna when there was an issue with automatic door) - just need some cleaning and greasing. It require to deassembly the motor housing if it is possible (some motors are assembled permanently).

                  Some motors have an electronic limit switch which brakes the power when motor current is higher than some programmed value (when the motor gets mechanical resistance it needs more power=current to operate then electronics sees that and shutting off motor power).

                    Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
                    by Tynan Dill
                    I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

                    Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

                    I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

                    The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

                    With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

                    Dell AL440LX power on switch circuit help required
                    by Powderfanupnorf
                    Hi Everyone. First official post so fingers crossed I conform and also manage to get photos to work.

                    So I am requesting some help from anyone who happens to have one of these motherboards to hand and perhaps a multimeter.

                    My board has a single row of header pins for all the front panel stuff (have seen others where they are grouped together differently so thats no help) and the two pins for the power on switch had been previously repaired and I am trying to make a better repair. There looks to be pad and trace damage and im happy to relocate the header pin/pins to...

                    NEC TurboExpress On/Off Power Switch Replacement Help
                    by grimacelord
                    Hello,

                    I've been working on a NEC TurboExpress and I accidentally got the plastic inside the power ON/OFF switch too hot while doing other repairs and melted it. At first, it would still power on when sliding the switch, but you had to really press inward while sliding to get it to work.

                    I removed the switch component and tried to gently melt the plastic back so it would work more reliably and all I managed to do was make it worse.

                    I need to find a replacement On/OFF switch for this, but having some trouble figuring out which kind of switch I need....

                    Asus Probook P5440UF-XB74 power issue
                    by GLISIT
                    Hi all,

                    TL;DR - this laptop is driving me nuts with the oddball power-related behaviors. Appreciate any insight you can provide!


                    I'm experiencing a power issue on an Asus Probook P5440UF-XB74. Although I've worked with electronics and computers for decades, this is my first attempt at getting into motherboard-level component troubleshooting. Any help the community can provide is greatly appreciated!

                    A few weeks ago I was using the laptop (on battery power) for a Zoom meeting. The battery was running very low (long meeting) but I wasn't worried about...
