sit in the car and lock the doors, do they move up and down freely?

Do you have aftermarket ***** on the locks. My UPR's have a problem when I lock it becasue they are a little to big for the hole.

make sure you have a good battery too, a bad battery wont supply the needed voltage.

yup my pass. side doesnt work 99% of the time....if i unlock itll move a lil but not go up, if i keep pressin it the power gets weaker and weaker....some days it will work once but thats in a looong time...im too lazy to fix it i just open the door from the inside for passengers

come to think of it, my battery is pretty old, and i do get a fairly long start, but yes the ***** are stock oem and it doesnt matter whether or not i use the remote or the button on the door when i sit inside, doesnt work either way, thanks for the input tho
