On Monday, I posted the following, “2005 Accord Coupe 4 cyl. I have had multiple problems with the power windows over the past 2 years. First, the driver's window stopped working. Change in regulator fixed that. For 2 years afterward, I would hear a slight click and boing noise. I thought perhaps the main window switch was broken. Switched one with a friend as an experiment and the noise continued. Windows worked, so it must be a quirk. Last week the passenger window stopped working. Installed a new regulator and no such luck, window didn't work. Today, I changed that window switch. At first, it didn't work and I could hear the click and boing noise again. Continued to try to operate the passenger switch and it worked. I assume the noise was the main window switch (driver's side) was making the noise as it was constantly trying to reset itself. Now with the change in the passenger window switch, all my problems and weird noises have ended. ..”


Today, the passenger window stopped working again and the slight click and boing noise began once more. I am stumped!


I have read to clean the connections. What do I use for that and where do I get it. Could it be something else? Is there a condenser or something these things connect to? If so and that is a potential cause, where can this be located.


Any help is appreciated!

 

Any help please on this. Maybe an relay?

 

There is something about resetting the multiplex on the 7th gen's. I think redbull-1 posted a nice short version....or look in the owners manual, might be around or with the battery replacement ???? can't remember right now.

 

i thought about that too. The driver's side works with one touch, which I believe only does so it the multiplex is programed. Perhaps I will try that a second time anyhow. Thanks for your post.

 

Again, this is just a start.....I hope it works, if not let us know.

 

I have cleaned the connectors with a product I got from the auto store. No change. I reset the multiplex unit. No change. Fuse is good. I am stumped!

 

Fixed. Boy,I forgot the car has a window locking switch as I never used it. Do I feel stupid and all readers of this post are nodding their heads in agreement!

 

Ok, time to pull the door panel and see what is going on.

I thought later, had to run to the store - time to think, the "boing" noise could be that something is loose in there.

Pull the panel and try the window....watch the regulator for strange movement. You can also verify voltage to the motor.

 

Ok, you posted as I was typing........Simple fixes are nice.....Thanks for updating with the answer, no matter waht it turned out to be. Trust me, if you play around with cars long enough.....all of us have done something like this, I know I have

 

Window lock-out switch... YES, I've done that before too; took me a couple days to realize, and I was almost ready to go to the dealer & cry warranty!
