In this video I detail how to diagnose and fix an electric window that doesn't operate as it should on a Citroen Grand Picasso. I hope this helps.
Hello everyone interested enough in this channel to visit here.
I'm just a single Dad whose son wanted his own CZcams channel to try and make some money because, quite frankly, we're pretty poor. Sadface.
But we're really happy together and I'd do anything for him, including making all sorts of random videos to upload to CZcams.
As such there's going to be games, reviews of various things and, as I generally can't afford to pay to get things fixed, anything I'm repairing that I can video I'll also upload.
Whatever you're doing folks I hope you're more successful at it that I am, take care and stay safe.

Peace. - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Great video!!!
Thank you so much. I do hope it's been a help.
Wow, this actually works! Thank you so much for the video, I had the same problem, works like a charm! 🌞
You're very welcome, and thanks for taking the time to let me know. It's nice to know that what may be a common problem also has a common fix. 👍
Nice, but you will get the Problem soon again. You have to change the pins no.4 and no.5 (should be red and blue) on the control panel, as well the two pins on the window motor, cables has the same colours as on the control panel. Than you will be peacefull 😁
Oh wow that sounds like you've been here before. Well that'll save me a bunch of investigating should it happen again. So far the problem hasn't returned but if it does I'll be posting all repair work here. 👍
I had a friend here last week who was ripped off here in germany during this repair in a workshop. I have also looked at many repairs on youtube which helped me, so of course i try to help others as well, so that they don‘t get ripped off.
@@balkanschwooob3594 To be honest that's a big part of why I'm here too. If we all passed on what we know then we'd all become more skilled and hopefully save a little money. 👍
Thanks. I have the same problem. This video will help. Hope I fix it 😊
Thanks. Now, I have been told you can pop the switch pack out of the door card without taking the card off the door. Might save you some work, but I was working on speakers at the time so did all at once.
All in all I took 20 minutes and it was fixed. Thanks again 😁
@@vm1608 That's great to hear. I do worry what's fixed my car might not work for others and I'd look a fraud. So I'm genuinely really pleased for you and am grateful for the feedback. 👍
I saw this and other videos, good video btw, and I noticed they al lhad something in common. They take the door trim off, and pop the switch unit out. So I tried gently prising the switch unit straight out with touching the door trim at all, and it just popped out. Could not have been easier. Popped straight back too.
You are so right. Someone else has commented the same and I truly believe you. I had the door card off changing speakers at the time and used many of the same images. I should make a simpler video for sure. Thanks for taking the time to comment. 👍
I owe you big time. My Citroen garage quoted me £240. After reading your comment I got the unit on Ebay for £32 and popped the old one out and the new one in in a couple of minutes. Works fine.
(note for anyone else, you need a point to push in the little tab to remove the two leads)
Thanks again !
Hello. Is it necessary to remove the panel to remove the keypad, or is it not necessary? Greetings.
To do this type of fix you would have to remove the keypad yes. But I've since been told that the keypad car be removed without removing the door card. The keypad can be removed by prising the front and rear parts up with a screwdriver.
handy video, shame you didn’t show how to take it apart though
Yeah I'm sorry. At the time of doing this I didn't have any way of supporting my phone to get a good view and it really needed both hands to open the body of the switchgear. It genuinely was the same as popping a TV remote apart where by you just slide a small flat blade screwdriver between the top and bottom parts of the switchgear body. Really though unless fluid has entered the switchgear I can't see much to go wrong as it's quite well protected. I can add though that after just cleaning the connector pins some 9 months ago I've not had any more trouble. Definitely not what I was expecting to find inside though.
Hi i was just wondering why you took the whole doorcard off to get the switch out ? I have a 2008 c4 grand picasso and just popped the door handle in half and stuck a screwdriver in the front panel and popped it out had it all working and back together in less than 5 minutes
Honestly, its because I don't know what I'm doing. Every job is a learning experience. Historically I've broken so many clips and tabs thinking I knew how something was attached that now, if at all possible, I like to see what fixings are used before trying to force parts to separate. But that's a great help for the future so thanks for the comment. 👍

i will try everything first before taking a doorcard off lol the buggers never go back on the same again all i done was pop the handle in half pop the switches out unplug them plug them back in and they started working again,My new 1 came in the post yesterday so i always got a spare i guess.
@@philclarke1438 I can't argue with that. But I'd bought a bag of 50 trim clips when I was changing door speakers so I'd given myself half a chance. I think I repaired this while working on the speakers actually and just used some of the same photos.
Incorrect procedure for door handle cover removal. Using the method shown will guarantee you snap the front clip off the cover. You need to find a rectangular hole at the front of the handle between the handle back face and the door cloth. Insert a screwdriver in here and keep it there - this releases the clip holding the front of the cover on. THEN you can prise the cover off from the front. Keep wiggling that screwdriver until you hit the tab and gently prise the cover away from the door (i.e. towards you). It should then come off without snapping the clip.
Well, every day's a school day. But I wouldn't say the method I used will 'guarantee' snapping the front clip off, because I've removed each door card a number of times and still have all handle clips in place. What I do get through is the clips which hold the door card to the door because no matter what tool I use I always break at least one of them.
Mine done the same but the switch in the back won't do it up either. Back and front made it go down when pulling up, now its stuck down and cant get it up. Going to try this but issue seems a bit different
I did find it worked intermittently so a good few trays might at least get the window up. If you unplug the motor (so you don't send the voltage back) you should be able to put voltage directly to the affected window motor again to at least get it to go up. Best of luck.
