Renault Megane 2 / Scenic 2 - Removing the door card to fix Renault window regulator

How to remove door card to fix faulty Renault Megane 2 or Scenic 2 window regulator.
More info at www.renaultwind...
Includes replacing module with a mini cube
In this video, we show you how to remove the door card so you can get to the faulty regulator.
You need to do this if there is a mechanical problem, such as a broken steel cable, or snapped clip.
However, this is overkill if you know the problem is only with the regulator module or motor (ie if there are no noises when you try to operate the window)
Please subscribe, to see our video of how to change the regulator module WITHOUT removing the whole door card.
The problem:
Irish TV's RTE Consumer Show's viewers alerted them to a problem in some of Renault cars' electric windows.
The problem lies with the electric window regulators, which can fail and result in the windows spontaneously slipping open and the windows cannot be closed again. The fault can cost the car owner up to 500 euro per window to repair. One car owner featured on the programme, who has a Renault Mégane, has three windows that aren't working and faces paying 1,500 Euro to repair them.
Problems may be experienced on any, or all, of the car's electric windows.
The cause
The cause of failure can be of two types - mechanical or electrical.
To determine which, listen for any noise or vibration whilst operating the window run switch.
If the motor can be heard to be running, or attempting to turn, the fault is almost certainly mechanical.
Otherwise, if there is no sound from the motor, or just a click from a relay, this indicates an electrical fault.
If the window operates of its own accord, this indicates an electrical problem also.
Typical mechanical faults are broken plastic clips and snapped steel cables.
Precise diagnosis will normally entail visual inspection following removal of the complete door card.
Pattern parts are readily available from numerous sources at very reasonable prices, but we do not supply these.
Electric faults however, are almost always the result by moisture entering the 6-pin electronic control module on the electric window motor.
Problems can also result if communication between this module and the car's computer becomes corrupted, and this can result in unexpected operation of the window..
To obtain a new original motor module, however, the only option available is to buy a complete window regulator assembly, priced at several hundreds of pounds.
The solution
If the cause is electrical, an inexpensive and easy fix is to replace the original 6-pin Temic module with the QER "mini-cube" module, a simple plug-in replacement.
The "mini-cube" does away with the troublesome electronics of the original, and isn't over-ridden by the car's computer, but still has full control of the window from the door switch.
Unfortunately, there is no "one-touch" function, or "anti-pinch" feature, and the windows can only be operated from the normal window run switches, not by remote control.
On the cabriolet, the automatic window roll-down feature when operating the roof is also lost
Owners wanting to retain these features should contact us, as we normally have some repaired original 6-pin Temic modules available from stock.
The "mini-cube" is a one inch cube, fully encapsulated, and therefore waterproof, unlike the original.
To guard against the unlikely event of a fault, the mini cube circuit includes a self-resetting fuse that prevents the motor from overheating.
It can be used to replace the 6-pin Temic module used on any of the Renault Megane 2 / Scenic 2 windows.

Fantastic video I have a Megane II Bought the 25 pound nano and followed this video Took me about 1 1/2 hours to do myself (not going to lie im not to good at DIY). Now i have a working window again without going to the garage (which charged me 170 quid last time) THANK YOU SOOO MUCH you are a life saver/ money saver

[@QERutube]

Great result!

Thank you for this video, I've done 2 of my windows and you saved me £150. God bless you!

[@mattprobert8268]

Thanks for the video! Needed to fit a mini cube without damaging the door cover. This video definitely helped with that and allowed me to fix the window without issue...Well, I still needed to get the door panel back on!

[@johnmahoney664]

Thank you - this was very helpful - particularly the key sizes. Best wishes, JM

[@MrJimbobDP]

If you want to keep your original functions like "one-touch", we also offer refurbished original modules. More details on the website www.renaultwindow.co.uk

Great video my problem is that both rear windows do not work , do you think the answer is the fitment of QER cubes

[@QERutube]

Yes, that should fix them for you. renaultwindow.co.uk

Hi Thank you for the video. However, I would like to see what happens at 3:40, when the top part is removed. I found this to be very difficult to remove and close to impossible to do without breaking some of the clips.

[@psaffrey]

Do you need to disconnect the battery to do this work?

[@QERutube]

Peter Saffrey Recommended, for your safety.

[@Lagerfone]

Is there an easier way to get at the module?

[@Craggy231]

Useful guide but door is not the same as the Scenic 2

[@QERutube]

Yes, we find that with the Scenic, its a lot easier than the Megane to remove the door card, and pretty straightforward. Glad you found the video helpful anyway.

[@QERutube]

An easy alternative, if you just want access to the module, is in our other video on this topic. I'm not allowed to post a link, so please subscribe to see it.

[@QERutube]

Just gently prise it all the way round until it pops. Nothing breaks.

We can also help with heater blowers - such a common problem with the Scenic especially. www.qdi-ltd.co.uk
