Need help fixing wiring in my car!

I have a 2004 G35c. do any of you guys know how to fix the wiring on the car. My right window on rolls up if i bang on the door a few times first; and my alpine head unit turns on whenever the heck it wants to. If anyone knows of a place who can help me out in San Diego that be great, or could even teach me how to fix it myself, i'd really appreciate it.

If the window only rolls up when you bang it it sounds like you need to clean your window motors. Is a veryyyy common problem on our g's. not sure on the head unit wiring (may want to pull it out and check the wiring). But the window motor cleaning is very easy.

when i took offer, or at least tried to take off the door panel. there was one bolt or snap on i could get off. Is there something i need to loosen? its right in the middle of the door, near the handle.

There are two bolts under the handle, you need pop the cover off (small flat head screwdriver on the bottom edge that faces the back of the car) and one behind the lock/opening mechanism. Search for the DIY replace window motor for the instructions on removing the panel, there are a couple good ones out there.

The radio sounds like a bad ground or frayed wire grounding itself or loose connection. Most likely either at the back of the radio itself or on whatever plug adapter was used, if there was one. Shouldn't be too hard to troubleshoot if you have a multimeter and some free time.

Are you talking about when you open and close your door that the window is suppose to go up and down?
