Default Window Motor

Hello everyone!

I have reason to believe my window motor is going up. My issue is hard to describe so I will do my best. Each morning while driving my driver's side window makes a sound as if it is open or better yet kind of like a window sounds when being hit with high winds. When I press the power button to roll it down, the window will not move. Ironically it is not until I press the button to roll down my passenger side window (which works fine), that it actually rolls down when i press the button again on that side. Its very weird.

Anyhow would I be correct in guessing its my window motor?

You need to ID year/trim of your Accord.

problem could easily be dirty window switch or master integrated control unit (MICU).

Does window work normally from pax side control?

good luck

On my 2003 Accord the power window would at times power up on its own while already fully up. I could feel the door panel press outward like it does when it reaches fully closed. I am guessing this is what your post is referring to. It was the window motor that was causing it.

The power window auto up/down feature may need to be reset. Procedure is rather lengthy and tedious to perform. I can't cut/paste procedure from my pdf manual (honda shop manual).

If you want to DIY, you'll need to purchase a manual from automanualsource.com for $22. Perhaps someone has the procedure to post.

good luck
