Reddit thread: Window wont roll up!¶

Source: r/MechanicAdvice (score 10, 11 comments) Topic: window regulator / window motor Models discussed: 451 Solution status: yes

Problem: Driver side window won't roll up. Window motor makes sound when pressing down-button but no sound when pressing up-button. Passenger side window works fine.

Solution: Physical impact to the door (hitting and kicking from outside while holding button upward) caused the window to come up. User decided to defer regulator replacement until warmer weather.

Key facts: - Smart 451 ForTwo - Down button produces motor sound, up button produces no sound - suggests directional issue rather than complete motor failure - Passenger window functions normally - Cold weather condition (-16°C) may have contributed to problem - Temporary fix achieved through mechanical impact rather than electrical/mechanical repair - User plans proper regulator replacement in spring/summer
