First question:

How do I remove the door cards to get access to the window mechanism please?

Thanks

There are three allen key screws in the door pocket. Remove these and pull the card downwards.

To make life easy purchase a Halfrauds Flexi-drive!

Done! Ta for the help. Managed it without the flexi-drive (although I do have one already.

My car only has two bolts, probably because the third one would be inaccessible due to the mirror control panel.

I fixed the rattly window, as suspected the rubber runner had worked its way out of the channel.

Interesting that the amount the window drops isn't controlled by a microswitch like it is in the Cerbera - I assume the mech just operates for a preset period of time.

Its a bit long though, can it be adjusted I wonder? Where is the window control box?

ta for help.

I mean the time that the window is actuated for when the door is opened, and thus the distance of travel of the window.

The position is measured using an encoder on the controller
The windows are one-touch...just spin the control for full up or down

Yea but when you press the door open button, the window drops. There's no microswitch (like in the Cerbera) so I assume the window is just actuated for a certain period of time.

Mine winds halfway down, far too much. I wonder if there's an adjustment or a modification to change this?

What does pressing the window know do?

Nothing as far as I can tell.
