Window Racer (1)
Make your 20+ year old power windows fly up and down like they never have before. Even better than they ever were new! Your windows will be just as fast as a new vehicle. Simple installation, just plug and play.
Here are some of the most common questions that we have been asked:
Q: How hard is it to install? How long does it take to install the Window Racer?
A: It will take you longer to get some tools together and to access your fuse box. Usually a flat head screw driver 7mm sockets etc. You are accessing the cover of the fuse box. Simply find the 30 amp circuit breaker in your fuse box marked for your "Power Windows." Remove your current 30 amp circuit breaker from the "Power Window" and install into Window Racer plug end the same way you removed the circuit breaker. We even designed the plug to look just like the circuit breaker you are removing. The circuit breaker opening is beside the Red LED light. You will see the opening shaped the way the circuit breaker must install.
Plug the Window Racer in where your circuit breaker was.
Then you take a screw #10 or smaller and ground the black wire to any suitable ground. Make sure the ground is clean. With the key turned forward, the red light will come on to let you know the unit is working. If the light does not come on verify a good ground and that your key is turned to the accessory position.
Q:How do I know if it is working I plugged it in but my dead window still isnt working, why?
A: Window Racer does not fix bad wiring, a bad motor, or switch. Make sure at least 1 window was working so you know the circuit breaker is good. When the you hit the window switch the green light comes on. You know that the circuit is completed and working, the motor is good and the circuit breaker is fine. The window is now going faster than ever. We will get to trouble shooting in a bit.
Q: How many Window Racers do I need for my vehicle?
A: Just 1. It works all the windows and your factory power moon roof if you have that option.
Q: My power moon roof?
A: Yes it will make your factory moon roof fly back and forth just like your windows.
Q: Can I operate all the windows and the moon roof at the same time?
A: Yes if you look at the video on http://www.windowracer.com the driver or passenger or both are operating at the same speed.It is not faster if you only operate one window at a time.
Q: Can Window Racer burn up my wiring? Will it cause damage to my switches? What about the motor, it has to be hurting the motor right?
A: No we would not build anything to hurt your vehicle. Actually what it does takes less amps to operate the motors than it did from the factory. The amp load is what generally causes your switches and motors to die. You know this if you have or had a weak motor. Your switch went bad and you replaced this because it was easier than replacing the motor.
Q: Will it make a bad motor run like new?
A: During our testing we have seen motors that allow the window to go down but not go back up. When Window Racer was installed it actually allowed the window to go back up. Of course not as fast as a good motor.
Q: What if I am out and for some reason the Window Racer would go bad Am I stuck with my windows up or down?
A: No the unit has an internal protection because we always know there will be that one person with two bad motors who doesn't want to change them and will eventually kill the internal protection. If for some reason the unit fails, the circuit breaker allows the vehicle to go back to your slow factory operation like normal.
Q: Ok I am not that one person. I want my windows to be just like my new vehicle. What can I do to optimize the operations?
A: We are geared for the CAR GUY. We had a few delays and additional costs due to there being upgraded internal components that were recently released. We realize your vehicle is over 20 years old. For optimal operation we suggest "rebuilt" not new aftermarket *Cardone Window motors. They are rewound OEM GM units that are faster then even New GM motors. We tested this and spoke to others who stated the same thing as we have found. We also suggest you check your window rollers on your track. We actually reproduced a far superior set that allows the grease to get inside the window rollers. The other after market are so tight they tend to "slide" rather then "role". We have found some that had flat spots on them when upgrading.
