auto electric windows
- Thread starter Rob182
- Start date
a) No, you cannot make the passenger window work as "One Touch" (you will also find that if you are sat parked up with the ignition off then the passenger window does not operate, but the driver's window operates as the passenger window normally works)
b) No, there is no way to set up the windows to close from the key fob (as a previous Focus owner I know what you mean about the windows auto-closing when you lock the car)
Edit:
Without totally rewiring the car that is (thanks edde).

There is a way of making both windos ones touch but forget it on't even bother trying to work it out the looms are different you can make it work and get Renault to swicth your UCH so it runs the other window as a one touch. Some foreign model Clios have one touch both sides hence why its an option in the UCH but to make it work different looms and wiring for both driver and passenger widow (or bodges) are needed.
As for making the windoes work yes it can be done but its costly you need a new alarm system or get a wiring expect to see if they can make either a PIC cheip or mess about with the stock Cobra alarm to control the windows.

On mk1 ph2s the driver side is one touch but on ph1s it isnt. The switch looks a little different. In thatcase would it just be as simple as changing the switch?
182
does the 197 have this ???
None of this changes the fact that if your car doesn't do it from the off then you can't make it do it unless you totally rewire the thing.
On a lot of models of Ford ( and I'm sure many other manufacturers as well) you can decide whether your windows are one touch or not by pressing the switches in a certain sequence. Same thing with making the windows close when locking the car using the key fob.
I'm sure that whether or not it is possible to do that in a 182 is what Rob182 was originally asking.

Erm because the 172 and 182 are different cars. The 182 has different wheels, exhaust coming out the rear bumper, different colours. 182s are newer.
And some 172s came with both passenger and driver auto windows, whereas the 182 didn't.
Thought you would have known they were different cars.
Polarbert,
Not as simple as that. I've had all Uk spec examples and none do the one touch on BOTH sides. Remember it's a continental car with the varying specs.
An example is auto headlights, the reason is in most Euro areas it is mandatory to turn headlights on in tunnels. It's not flash, just the rules. The UK does not adjust the car just for us, why should they?
Neither 172 came with both windows automated/one touch. Sorry. It's all about getting the best value/profit.
The 172/182 comment is also dubious, as in the electrics are not changed for modeld no matter.

NONE allow one touch on both sides.
You have to be the most arguementative person alive. No, you have not seen, experienced all these cars where they have one touch on both sides.
Numpty, given you the oportunity to PM, yet no answers.
All cars whether UK or EURO have the one touch to do one function, and one function only.
Have you guessed yet??????
It's to allow the easy access to the toll booths throughout Europe. Therefore non UK spec. cars, built on EU variants will be not be any different.
Why do you think there are auto headlights????
It's a legal requirement throughout most of the EU.
Go through a tunnel and it is mandatory to use headlights. It's not an option to show a lack of knowledge, or better xenon lights!!!!!!.
ERGO numpty
The option of a PM is open. You choose the daft direct option. No RS has had the one touch option on both windows. If it did then the best is a cut and shut job. I mean afteralll, why would they? Other manufacturers don't??
PM me and I will respond.

Just to clear this up as I don't understand what either of you are on about.blaze said:
The 172 did in some countries get one touch on both sides some imports got it as they foreign build spec and some Uk cars (very rare) had it as its a mix up of looms. I've no idea why this happened the UCH does have the option when its programmed to be told the car has one touch looms and switches (the switches are different and the looms are on one touch both side cars).
I wish my car came with those options as standard MrAtego. Far prettier than my interior

PS Edde, yet why would Renault have two/or more differing looms????
No sense and a cheap manufacturing processes would not seem to allow it. Door locks on the passenger side make any sense on UK cars????. Wipers that are universal?.
You seem a top up guy yet where is your proof. Standards of EU/Renault cars would indicate otherwise.
I'm sure, like so many other people, you could post to the world, yet unless it is an imported vehicle I would find it very hard to believe Renault changes the loom to any extent.
Yet I'm open to the idiocy of Renault.

My proof is the Renault manauls have details showing the wiring switches differences in there repair manual. Also the UCH computer (which is under the dash) has the option in it to control twin one switching its switches off unless you have the different looms and switches fitted as it doesn't workin without the looms.blaze said:
I've no decient reason why Renault have but there are other features in the UCH that the Clio in the UK doens't have ie day running lights (sweedon would have these emabled) and an aribic overspeed warning (comes on when they are over a certain speed). ALso there the option of heated seats which were an option on the continet but onot in the UK (why the French need heated seats is beyond me its the Uk market I'd have though would have gone for them).
There loads of wierd points about Renault there spare fuse points in the car which were never used on any model but there still space for them.

with what?!?!

Oh f**k off will you, you never gave me any opportunity to PM as you say and what would be the point?
The post above this one has just defunct your claim so stop calling me a numpty.
We're not talking about auto lights so stop using them as an example. Auto down windows is the topic. And some 172s did come with them.
LOL at you calling me the most argumentitive person alive, I gave a one line response and you come out with all this s**t?
I have been in a 172 with both windows one touch, if your saying that I wasn't then okay, but I really fail to see how you can know what I was sitting in.
