Window in down position and will not return to up position

There is no relay for power windows !
Power Window System Components
The power window system consists of the following components:
?€¢
Driver window switch

?€¢
Front Passenger window switch

?€¢
Left Rear window switch

?€¢
Right Rear window switch

?€¢
Window regulator motors in each of the doors

?€¢
PWR WINDOWS PWR SUNROOF Circuit Breaker 30A

When the ignition switch is in the RUN or ACCY position, or Retained Accessory Power (RAP) is enabled and the lockout switch is disengaged, battery positive voltage will be available at the passenger window switches. When an individual window switch is pressed in the down position, battery positive voltage is applied to the window regulator motor causing that window to open. When the individual window switch is pressed in the up position, voltage is applied to the window regulator motor in the opposite direction causing that window to close. The return path to ground is supplied through the inactive control circuit being normally grounded through the driver window switch.

Just replace the switch. There is a spring in it to return it to the run position. It is either broken or so dirty/worn out, that it won't return.

Open the rear window and push the arm past its usual position against the window. It may restore the the tension. However, You likely need a new wiper arm, you could also try lubricating the pivot point.

Poltergeist perhaps? I'd say it's the main switch aboard for the windows. Check for a shorted circuit or a bad ground. Take the whole panel out and test it. Good luck.

You might want to give a few more details, does it get stuck going down or coming up? Are they manual or power window?. I had a case with a car (although not a Kia) that the bolts on the regulator came loose it would go down but not return to the up position. If this is the case remove the inside door panel and check for loose bolts or broken rivets holding your window regulator in place. The regulator is what puts your window up and down.

Sounds like ur window regulator is having difficulty to go up!

Check the window regulator, by opening ur door interior finisher, look at how the windows moves, and NOTiCE the cables that runs across the regulator. check also the sides of the window, where the glass were guided by rubber moulding, see to it that the glass window passes in the middle of the moulding!


That might wind ur probs down!

Sounds like the regualte or push arm is broken. If there is no spound then sounds like the regulator. The inside door trim has to be taken off, find the regualator, remove and replace should be ok then.

could be a few things. Could be the relay could be the motor ore could be the tracks
it it all the windows on 2 ore 4 sides.
If all the windows on all sides that sounds fishy and would be the relay on drivers side.

Do this, With the door CLOSED !! push the 'down' button all the way and hold it for 10 secs, then up all the way and hold it for another 10 secs. Then repeat once. The window will return to normal after that.

you need to check your window switch also check the fuse box for blown fuse
