Hey guys...quick question

Just noticed my driver side window wouldnt roll down when i pushed the button...it made some clicky nosies but wouldnt go down. I turned the car off then back on again, and when I tried again, it would go down until i let go of the button and then it would automatically roll back up.

Any tips/solutions?

You may just need to reset the window position. Roll the window all the way down, the hold the up button to roll it all the way back up again. Keep holding the up button for about 3 seconds after the window reaches the top. That should reset the position settings for the one-touch window and the window should work correctly again.

Problem is though, i can't get the window to stay down to try that...as soon as i let go of the button it goes back up again by itself.

So i just got back from Nissan...they said the master switch is done and needs to be replaced. $200 plus labour. ouch. Plus im at 70k, and warranty ran out at 60K, so they won't do it under warranty. ouch.
