Power windows have become the most important part of a car. This component offers comfort for drivers and passengers in opening and closing windows. In the past, it required a lot of effort to lower or raise the window by turning a crank. Now, with the presence of power windows, this operation can be done easily just by pressing a button.

Of course, extra maintenance is needed if you want the power window to always be in very good condition. Its seemingly simple use often leads to neglect in maintenance, resulting in problems such as sluggish performance or jamming. Therefore, there are several things you need to pay attention to in maintaining and ensuring that the power window continues to function properly:

1. Check Your Car's Power Window Every 6 Months

Surely you don't want your car window's performance to be suboptimal or sluggish. This can cause the window to become misaligned and may prevent it from closing properly. Make sure your car window is not operating under such conditions. It is advisable to check it every six months. If the roads you frequently travel on are very dusty, maintenance should be done more often.

2. Take Time to Clean the Car Window Rubber

The way to do this is to prepare silicone spray, which you can easily find in the market. Do not use penetrating fluids because such liquids will actually invite dust to return. Silicone spray is more neutral and works well. Make sure you do not confuse silicone spray with silicone grease. According to Wikipedia, silicone grease is a lubricant for car brakes. Additionally, also pay attention to the dust barrier rubber attached to the glass before lowering the glass. Spray along the rubber track including the rubber attached to the door frame.

3. Clean the Dirty Power Window Tracks

To keep the glass track in good condition, it is recommended to wash the car regularly when going on long trips. If this glass track component is neglected, the window cannot operate optimally because it is difficult to operate electrically. When washing the car, don't forget to use high-quality car shampoo to maintain the moisture and elasticity of the rubber. Another important thing is to operate the power window button gently so that the electrical current flows well in the electrical system.

4. Use the Car Power Window Only as Needed

Finally, to keep the car window in good condition, it is best to raise and lower the glass only as necessary. Additionally, do not pull the glass inward if the glass is wet. It is also advisable not to pull the glass down too often when passing through dusty roads or after going through dusty areas. Dust can damage your car's power window.
