Issue with Baleno Power Windows

dj7777 · 23rd December 2009, 23:06

Hi,

My Baleno's power window cable is on the verge of cutting, can anyone recommend if any jugglery can be done to fix this ???
To replace it, i'll have to buy a whole assembly which costs about 10K per door.

Anybody having spare please pm me.

How do you came to know about that? Do you have any problem in operating it?

Welcome to the club

No Jugaad can be done, and you cannot install aftermarket stuff.

You have two options,..

1) - Pick up new ones
2) - Pick up used ones from the gujri. Approx 2-3k

Okay i just remembered there is a third option ..

@Surprise : the faulty window use to make lot of noise and wasn't smooth as the rest, I got all my doors serviced at MASS and they discovered this window cable has a cut and about to break. They have now disconnect it :-(

@Binz : Thanks buddy, pardon me for not knowing, what gujri ? I have sent a response to zafety. lets see if he still has them.

I had a problem with my baleno power windows. At 45000 km, and four years, the rear left window was going down but not closing when actuated from the driver master console. It worked perfectly from the window switch itself.
My MASS told me the whole master console would need replacing, approximately Rs 10,000/-. In desperation I even scoured the internet and e-bay for alternates, and found someone in Australia with an old console for about Rs 3000/- (plus duties?).
Then I took the car to my neighbourhood car electrician. He took one look, gave the switch three shots of WD-40 spray, and presto, the switch works! My cost: Rs 20/-.
Only in India!
