rolling up the windows... stupid... stupid

[TOMY]

i just bought a front clip and its being delivered tomorrow and my plan was to keep it in the garage and push the car outside and keep it parked on the street. Good plan but i rolled the windows down before I took the KA out. :doh: Now I was wondering if it was as easy as just hooking up the battery terminals while the eingine is out and get all the acc. running so I can roll the windows up.... but i Guess that would be too easy.... right?

[mrmephistopheles]

why don't you try it and find out?

[TOMY]

i probaly will, just haven't had time and i just thought about it today. I guess I could also strip the wires and directly do it from the door... what a pain!

C'mon!!!!!!!
You might think about this before posting!! what's the difference if the motor is in the car or in the trunk???

get a long ass speaker wire...................... get 4 clips...... connect those to the cable/wire.... take off ur door panel, take the clip off connecting ur window motor to the harness..... connect -/+ sides to 2 picks screwdrivers(very small) then connect other side clips to a source lile a battery -/+... then manually touch the terminal...... its pretty much simple one way goes up and one way goes down.... done and donel...

Well, maybe posting about it and seeing if anyone has done it before. If everyone tried doing something before asking, that would be quite inefficient.

hahaha...i did that in the shop before i pulled the ka....i just put plastic over the windows. I didn't have any thing in my car so i didn't really mind it being parked out front of my work.

Or just hook the battery back up. A lot damn easier.

if you do that pull the fuse or relay for hte fuel pump... unless you dont care about fuel spraying on the ground

[projectRDM]

Better to aim it at someone, then throw them a lit match. Preferably a 240 owner.

[Phlip]

Or remember that there is no fuel TANK in a clip and that there will likely be no fuel to spray

go manual windows! lol

[luisgonz]

just hook up the damn battery nothing will happen as long you dont let positive wire touch ground

[infinitexsound]

im just saying thats a way to do it.. if he took all the stuff off... and thats a way to do it manually if some shit went wrong with his window motor like what happend to me.. since now i need a new motor and regulator.... and thats how i tested everything......... but what ever... takes like 3 min to build a daymn cable and crimp tool...... i used that method in the autobody biz, for situations like taking a door off the whole chassis and needing to roll then window up when its totally off the car... but what ever im no guru....

[TOMY]

okay check and since the motor is out, the positive cable it no longer attached to the harness.

Infinitexsound: could explain it in simpler terms as far as which pins to attach, i'm really bad at wiring, but good with mechanical

[infinitexsound]

its not hard man just read my post and go to a hardware store in the electrical section, and take ur door panel off ... its pretty self explanitory

[johngriff]

what the hell, this could quite possibly be the most apparent example of online apathy!! GO OUTSIDE, THERES A BIG ALIVE WORLD OUT THERE!!!

LOL

Take care

PS. Hook the battery up and roll them up, what the heck is wrong with you(thats what my pop would say)
