Beneath these switches are some pretty ingenious mechanisms. Ingenious, but quite often failing! Because this is a malfunction that we have all had, for a Kia Clarus or any car. But before replacing the system, it is necessary to properly understand what the problem is about. An electrical fault concern? Gears seized? We will try to answer all of your questions below.
Kia Clarus: a window goes down but does not go up, or vice versa
Before replacing the component, let's just study how this device works. When you press, or raise the switch on your window, you can find two switches in the facts . The electrical connection only takes place when you activate it. It is therefore likely that the malfunction comes from a false contact. Remove the part using a flat screwdriver, and examine the electrical wiring at its beginning and at its end. If the concern is not the result of a false contact, in this case it is the window regulator motor of your Kia Clarus that is HS. It also happens that gears happen to be worn. Do not hesitate to try to repair the malfunction, but generally it will be necessary to replace the entire window regulator.
Kia Clarus: One window doesn't work at all
It is rather exceptional that the concern comes from the switch, because it would be necessary that two connections or cables are faulty. However, you can control if you want to be sure. In this case, the concern will certainly come from the window regulator mechanism of the Kia Clarus. It happens that the latter comes from engine window lift, or a defective gear. Remove the door covers to see inside. Operate the window to be able to discern if the engine is running, and try to find out the causes of the problem. In case gears block you can dust and grease them. In the event that nothing happens, you will probably have to change the entire window regulator.
Kia Clarus: Electric window blocked
A window of your Kia Clarus is stuck. You try to reassemble it by pressing the switch or by hand, nothing to do it remains blocked. This problem may come from the window regulator motor, but generally it will be possible to reassemble it by hand. It is therefore more plausible that the glass has come out of its rail . By offsetting, when you mount the window, it locks on one side. In this case, there is no point in forcing anything. You will have to open the door and check what is stuck inside. If the window guides are broken, you may need to replace them.
Conclusion:
To sum up, a glass problem on this Kia Clarus can come from an electric problem, from the window regulator system, or from the rails that hold it. Do not hesitate to leave us a comment if your malfunction is not mentioned above. Hope this post helped you, enjoy the ride!
