Hey guys...I have the black widow 7150 alarm w/ DEI 530T window rollup/down module. I recently started having the problem that I can't roll my passenger window down through driver side window switch, I can only roll it up. However, the passenger side switch works fine, so I can roll the window up/down. I can roll both the windows down fine with the remote though. Whenever I try rolling the passenger side down through the driver side control, I hear a silent clicking noise coming from under the dash...maybe from the alarm brain? But that's all that happens, the window wont roll down.

What could the problem be? I'm never buying a black widow product again. The alarm sucks, but that's beside the point. Thanks in advance.

The 530T basically replaces the window switch switch, this is how you have 1 touch windows. The passenger's side roll down wire from the switch probably came loose where it connected to the 530T wiring or the pin pulled out of the harness. Then again my brother was having a similar problem and it was caused by corrosion at the pins of the window module. The only thing that is wierd is that you are hearing a click when you push the button on the door. Can you tell if the click is coming from the 530T or from something else?

I'm pretty sure it's coming from somewhere under the dash...which is where the brain and other sensors for the alarm are located. I had the door panel open while i was testing it and the sound didnt seem to come from the module.

My car is a 95 prelude, and i was checking the wiring. There are 3 harnesses that connect into the door control for the driver side. There is one that has two wires, which I think are for the passenger side switch. These arent spliced into 530T, only the other harness which has a lot more wires is spliced into it. Then again I could be completely wrong, but that's what it looks like.

Anyway, here's a wiring diagram for my car's windows:
