| I just purchased this 98 Audi A4 and I rolled the back drivers side window down and it wont go up. I can turn the key on and pulled the window switch and it will go up about 1-2 inches and automatically go down. I got it up by turning the key on and my husband held the window up and then I had to turn the key off and back on and it would roll up another 1-2 inches while he held it up. I had to do this til I got it completely up and it stayed. The drivers side front also don't work. I was wondering what might be wrong with it. Can anyone help me with this? | |

Hi. I tried to do a 'search' but didn't have much luck. I have an 02 1.8T with about 78k miles on it. I recently had to have the battery replaced and now I'm experiencing electrical issues. It started with the dome light and door open lights staying on after the doors were all closed. Then the windows stopped working. Sometimes everything would be fine, but the last few days the windows aren't working and the dome light remains on. My local mechanic suggested there was some sort of TSB out there regarding water getting into the wiring harness. The numbers he gave me were: Recall: Group 97; Number 02-01, Date: Oct 2, 2002. Subject: Door Electrical Components Malfunctioning. Has anyone experienced this problem? Is it a recall? Is it covered by Audi or should I expect to pay a large chunk of change? Thanks.

Replying to: niteswmer2 (Oct 01, 2008 2:39 pm) Does this sound like your symptoms? Group: 97 Number: 02-01 Date: Oct. 2, 2002 Subject: Door Electrical Components, Malfunctioning Model(s): A4 2002 Condition Electrical components operated via door control modules and/or switches malfunctioning such as window regulators, instrument cluster door ajar light, interior lights and door lights. Symptoms include: ^ Doors cannot be locked or unlocked by remote control. ^ Window regulators do not work. ^ Inside lights sporadically do not go out. ^ Display in cluster shows doors open when all doors are shut. ^ Door lights do not work. Vehicle may exhibit one or more of these symptoms at the same time. May be caused by water ingress into the wire harness contact housing at the A-pillar or B-pillar which leads to corrosion of individual terminals.

Where ARE these corroded terminals? Accessible or buried somewhere. it would be great if you showed them the TSB and asked them what they know about it. If you are in the San Francisco area I can send you to excellent Audi people.
