Power window lock

Lamont · 09-24-2006, 08:45 PM

For some reason the window lock button disables the driver's control of the other three windows. Does anyone know how to mod this?

why not just dont touch it ???? or i would guess if you can find the plug or wire under the panel that connects to the button and disconnect it.

Some people may accidentally hit the button for the rear passenger side window when resting their arm on the door arm rest or when they're adjusting the side mirrors. This happened to me when I was at work...the rear passenger side window was wide open for 6 hours, and my friend finally called me, "Dude, your rear passenger window is wide open."
Damn did I feel stupid...

I'd like to keep control of the front, while the kid can't mess with them. When he is out the car, it's not an issue.

It wouldn't be hard to rewire it, it would just be a PITA. If you're truely interested in taking the time to figure it out and perform it, PM me and I can probably help you get started.
