Power windows
My 83 spider has a problem with one of my power windows The passenger side hoes up but not down I pulled the door panel off and all seems good. Am planning to switch the wires to the other side which works Ok. That way I can see if it is the switch. Question. How do you remove the switch without breaking it. Does is come out as a subunit? Any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks. Brian

Re: Power windows
I remove switch from both end to pull all the switches.

Re: Power windows
Thanks for your response. Do you mean to remove all the switches or just the power window unit like the one Auto Ricambi sells.

Re: Power windows
So after carefully removing the panel I have tested the switch and both windows go up and down using the good side of the switch I just ordered a new one so should solve the problem. Thanks for the help Brian

Re: Power windows
Update on my power windows . New switch received from Auto Ricambi and installed. Both windows up and down without problem but now having trouble inserting the panel back in the console. It’s a tight fit and has clips top and bottom which I assume hold it in place but hinders the panel insertion I am afraid of breaking the panel if I force it. Any hints or suggestions. Thanks Brian

Re: Power windows
Install the panel empty.
