Theres nothing like enjoying some "free air conditioning" in your Nissan Altima, cruising down the road with your vehicles windows rolled down. When you press the window switch and nothing happens, though, its important, from both a safety and comfort standpoint, to get your Altimas window motor repaired quickly.

What are the features of a window on an Altima?

Your Nissan Altimas windows have many features that make them easy and convenient to use. Directly related to the windows is the ability for the driver to lock the other windows so they cant be lowered. If you have small children or pets riding with you in your Nissan, this is a nice feature to have. Here are some other window features.

  • Fast: The powerful motor responsible for raising and lowering the glass ensures youll have the glass exactly where you want it in no time.
  • Auto-up and auto-down: Pull up or depress the window switch completely, then release it, and the glass will continue in its direction of travel automatically until it is completely up or down.
  • Reliable: The components in the power window system are designed and built to last.
Who manufactures window components for a Nissan Altima?

Most of the parts you encounter in your search will be either new or second-hand Original Equipment Manufacturer, or OEM parts. Aftermarket parts must be matched to the model year of your Nissan Altima. Here are some typical components of an Altimas power window system.

  • Switch: The switch is the component in the cabin that you press or release to move the glass up and down.
  • Motor: This component takes the electrical current and transforms it into motion that is then used by the regulator to move the glass up and down.
  • Window Regulator: This is the component that transforms the movements of the motor into up and down motion to raise and lower the glass. Your Nissan Altimas regulators are side-specific, so make sure you select either drivers or passengers side when you purchase one.

Of all the components in your Nissan Altimas power window system, the most likely component to need replacement is the window motor.
