Door window cannot be closed; pinch protection triggered

Cars affected

9-3 (9440) CV M04-05 with pinch protection

Background

Because the door mirror base on certain vehicles is too close to the door window, the pinch protection of the window lift may be activated, causing the lift to reverse before the window has reached the closed position. This can be remedied by adjusting the door mirror base so that it does not lie as close to the window.

In case of complaints from customers, proceed as follows.

Symptom description

Door window cannot be closed; pinch protection triggered



Procedure


1. Remove fuse 5 from the instrument panel electrical centre (IPEC).

2. Fit the fuse.

Note

The pinch protection for door windows has now lost the previously set values. Pinch protection will be reprogrammed when the anti-pinch test is carried out.


3. Carry out the anti-pinch test in Tech2 under the menu / Body / Power Windows / Driver Door or Passenger's Door / Miscellaneous / Anti-Pinch Test Convertible . Use Tech2 version 116.000 or later.

4. If the results of the Tech2 anti-pinch test are positive, no further action is necessary.

5. If the Tech2 anti-pinch test fails, continue with step 6 and adjust the window or windows specified.

6. Lower the window completely.

7. Remove the retaining bolt from the inner cover of the door mirror base and prise the cover from the door. Use 82 93 474 Removal tool.


8. Remove the inner cover of the door mirror base by lifting the cover straight up.


9. Driver's side: Unplug the connector from the door mirror switch.

10. Raise the window to its closed position.

11. Undo the four retaining bolts.


12. Undo and remove the adjuster screw.

13. Adjust the door mirror base by holding it so that it is in line with the door window.


14. Adjust the door mirror base so that the door mirror is angled inward slightly more than the door mirror base. The seal should have an S-shape where it meets the window.



Note

With the door closed, press the top edge of the window outward, causing the door mirror base and the window to form a straight line. This can be checked by pressing the top edge of the window outward when the door is open.


15. Tighten the four bolts.


16. Insert the adjuster screw and tighten loosely so that it does not rattle.

17. Check that the door mirror and door window align with the A-pillar seal.

18. Check that the door windows and rear side windows operate smoothly by first raising the door windows and then the side windows. Lower all of the windows. Then raise the side windows followed by the door windows.

19. Remove fuse F5 in the instrument panel electrical centre (IPEC).

20. Fit the fuse.

Note

The pinch protection for door windows has now lost the previously set values. Pinch protection will be reprogrammed when the anti-pinch test is carried out.


21. Use Tech2 to check that the pinch protection is functional by carrying out the anti-pinch test in Tech2 under the menu / Body / Power Windows / Driver Door or Passenger's Door / Miscellaneous / Anti-Pinch Test Convertible .

22. Driver's side: Plug in the connector of the door mirror switch.
