Re: 84 4kq windows intermittent - fixed!



Why replace it again with a THermal Breaker.   And what is a THermal
Breaker.  My 4kq intermitantly get the same problem and the switch is
fine.  Seems like the problem is inside the door in the wiring because
if I wiggle the wires it works again.  has worked fine all summer
though, thank god.  I suspected a loose conection but could not find it.

    Thanks

Now replace it again with a thermal breaker.
