Txakura Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 anybody ever tried to convert any window other than the driver window to auto up/down? I sure like that feature and think it'd be useful on the passenger side too... was looking at the switch, seems like that 'feature' lives in the switch, not the window control box under the carpet...

nipper Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Its in the switch. It involves i think a current sensor, but i can be wrong. Mystery black boxes and magic smoke are not my strong points. nipper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobywagon Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Yes, that feature lives in the switch. Its essentially a circuit breaker. If you want to have auto up/down on the others, Directed Electronics makes a window automation module that (I think) will do the trick. Its actually designed to be used with an alarm, but I believe you can make it work with the buttons. If you're interested, let me know and I'll look up the part number and application.

Txakura Posted August 14, 2009 Author Share Posted August 14, 2009 well I have an extra driver switch and only two power windows to deal with... so it is sounding like I can just put the extra in the passenger slot on the master panel and have fully automated windows on both sides... (from my seat anyway) (and thanks for the idea on the aftermarket controller) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 i've always thought the same thing, would be nice to have that feature on both front windows...and from the drivers seat too. kind of silly to have different modes of operatinos for switches that do the same thign. anyway, i looked into this like 10 years ago on the XT6 and i don't recall any easy way to do it. now maybe i could disassemble the master switch and extract just the element i need, that might work. and maybe non-XT6's are simpler. let us know how it goes i'd like to try this again.

subiemech85 Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 it's a deal, in the coupe it's a no brainer I want this feature for the SVX, one touch UP and DOWN for ALL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
