Post Auto window problem. Battery draining.
I am owner of # 114 Mangusta. I have a battery draining problem. First of all the passenger side window does not go down the 3 inches when the door handle is lifted. My battery only holds a charge for 2 days. Could this be the problem ? Drained in Florida....................JD

Yes , the door glass drop does have an impact on the battery charge state....give me a call @ 415 351-5128..its a fairly simple fix..

does the inside mirror lamp stay on after you lock the car..???

Ok after removing the door panel I also had to adjust the actuator that activates the micro switch in the door lock assembly . Then I was told the spring often comes off. so when the handle is lifter the switch sends a message to the window motor to drop the window for opening or closing of the door. The spring was still intact. Well after all that it still didn't work. So I found another switch in the middle of the door that touches the power window arm as it goes up or down. ( very touchy adjustment I must add ) I noticed the copper clip on the switch was broken off. And no it wasn't laying down inside the door either !! I ordered the part and await the arrival for installation to see now if the window will drop when it's supposed to !!! Anxiously awaiting in Florida !! JD
