Salam too matt wee,
Looks like you're having the same problems like me last week. Your power windows regulator is giving up. It could be the pulley of the regulator breaking up thus making your windows unable to be lifting up. It's common for Waja.
Going to normal shop will make your replacement cost your around RM350-400. So the best way go to spare parts shop, ask them how much the price, then you could ask them if any of shop nearby could do the changing. Last week when I replacing the regulator at driver side, the cost for Proton(plastics) regulator is RM160, while 3rd party (steel) is RM130. The workmanship will cost around RM30-40 per window.

btw, im new to this club, i have a waja, 9 years old. bought over from my relative. Silver AT. complete stock biggrin.gif

edited: i wanna ask something, do you guys experience waja's car alarm problem? my waja's car alarm is a stock alarm since 2000. Every time when i press the arm or disarm, it doesn't work, have to press a few times (5-10 sometime when cold day even more) and have to press near the wiper. I changed my remote battery to new also same. I believe is the alarm box receiver not good ? hmm.gif

Any suggestion on how to mod? or change a new alarm system? cheap reliable for waja.

I have same issue. I manage to fix it like normal. How? this is cause by the keyremote control frequecy.

Open the key remote contorl, locate the little blue color cylinder shape electornic compnent, a round things with a hole in the centre, use a small screw driver insert into the hole and slowly turn a bit by abit (can be left or right direction. try n error) and press the remote button and see any improvment of the reception range. you should walk further and further to get the best result untill to about 5 meter far. This distance should be normal.

Hello everyone.
Have a question regarding the price of waja headlamps [year 01 with the 4G18P engine].
Was involved in an accident last year [crashed into the car in front] so both lamps was replaced. The thing is........the lamps were imitations [not original]

So recently it has been giving me problems, like it turns off by itself when I'm driving.
So now I want to change it back to the 'original headlamps'
Problem is..... Proton quoted RM450.00 for the whole set while a workshop outside quoted around RM250.00.

Both are originals...so they say.... So can anyone tell me why is there such a big difference in price?
Thanks in advance.
*
Did you check why did it turn off by itself? one sided or both side off?
because in my case, my driver side headlamp, it's working, just that the wire connect to the whole headlamp overheated and melt the connector making it barely contactable so if i just touch it or shake it, the headlamp lit again.

If you're here to ask about genuine thingie, then im sorry for my useless comment notworthy.gif
