The last questions in the comments about problems with power windows led me to write this article so that they can be clarified some questions regarding the installation of modules to increase the power windows.
Rising electric windows in cars with comfort system
In a few years now there are many car manufacturers that have incorporated in their vehicles the so called "comfort" brands like VW and Opel among others were the first to incorporate a system where even cars without command will allow the distance vehicle and close the driver turning the key a little more to the right climbing all the electric windows and ceiling.
In this type of car the Cobra alarms send a signal to the timer system of the vehicle allowing the closing of all windows and ceiling, if any, this connection is usually made with a single wire connection.
Even without great technical detail, I think you can see that this is the easiest way to operate the power windows, unfortunately is limited to a particular type of vehicle.
Electric windows automatic
In some vehicles with automatic electric windows (those we touch the button and they go up alone), and the engine only requires an electrical signal to rise, timed modules can be used like the 1052 Cobra and a diode in each interim one of the wires that control the windows go up, I'm reminded of the Opel Corsa / Tigra B eg. in this kind of car is also very simple to install alarm with a rise of glasses, because just connect two wires (one for each glass), two diodes and go.
Modules glass universal
One of the modules of glass most commonly used to date is the 2980 Cobra, which allows for the increase in the glass of most common vehicles (except the other cases described here), this type of arrangement is in most cases a little more complicated, it is necessary to check what kind of wiring the vehicle has.
Through this module you can perform different types of connection depending on the type of tension at rest that electric motors apresentam.Nos simplest cases simply connect two wires per motor, in others it may be necessary to connect the four wires for the power windows possua.Em car many car models these connections must be made within each of the doors, and so in some cases can be tricky making all these connections.
Digital control Electric windows
In some vehicles the Japanese and European brands, especially in newer models, it is common to find electric windows with digital commands or Multiplex made it impossible to mount any of the modules described above, this type of car it is necessary to install an accessory that simulates the same type of signals that are sent when you press the original ascent of glass.
What this means is that there is a module for this type of systems, but rather, several application modules with one or two specific car models, for example there is a module that lets you trigger the windows of the Mazda 5 and 6 or a module that can only be installed in the Mazda 3 and no more of the same make and model much less in other models of other brands.
All this information can lead you to conclude, rightly, that it is increasingly necessary that the installers are informed and have a technical support brand alarms, does not mean that representatives of the automobile are the only ones with this capability, many independent garages perform better this type of trabalho.O also want to convey is that rampant demand the best price is not always behind the best results.
Without having entered into highly technical issues, I hope this article helps to understand a little better than behind the assembly of a simple accessory to rise in power windows.

Good afternoon:
Recently purchased the Mitsubishi dealer in Lisbon Univex
A large, in which part of the purchase contract to install an alarm with automatic closing vidros.Quando I get the car I noticed that when I closed the car by running their own car alarm (Cobra 3865) but was activated windows did not shut, I asked what the reason why this did not happen, and it was not what was agreed, and I was then told that this car model did not allow the module assembly of a closed glass because of the polarity of the alarm and the command key from the vehicle.
To what extent this is true, and no wonder the same chance to mount a module closing windows?
To close the glass in the Mitsubishi Grandis is necessary to install a specific module (follow the link), the reason has nothing to do with polarities of alarm and command key, the real reason is the type of glass to be operating by signals digital and therefore a normal module + cheap
not work.
The mean specific module that is compatible with either the alarm or with the vehicle in question.

In the case of passion PEUGEOT 306 2000, which would be the deconstruction of the windows system?
Thank you.
which increases put in malibu glass, and glass dian left is automated
I do not know well the Brazilian models, what is the brand?
To climb the glass of the Peugeot 306 just use the 2980 module stopping the wires upward (+).
But it would be possible to integrate it with the locks and thus control the trigger locking the doors the windows go up automatically?
Thanks again ...
Yes, just add the module 2980 connected to the alarm.

I have a Cobra 3865 alarm w / module 2980 and wanted to install in another car and need the wiring diagram of it because I had an accident and wanted to install the new car and I have no scheme
I need a good starter for a glass peugeot 306 2009/2010
being that it already owns an original manufactures automated meteorological system
placed so that an alarm of another brand
I'm just not getting it for a specific shareholder
very short story with you to help me!
In principle it is automated system runs through 1055 and a diode.
I have installed in the car to Central Command 7915 with 2 modules of glass, one of them is faulty, the module is to buy the 2980?
Yes the module to increase the glass is 2980
