discojmz Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 i would almost put money on it being a single specific dry solder joint on the electric window brain behind the glove box on passenger side (assuming 300tdi series) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westcoastlandy Posted December 19, 2007 Author Share Posted December 19, 2007 hi had a look behind the glove box and found loads of wires. can you tell me were the window brain is. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discojmz Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 right, there should be some boxes in there. this one is a flat black one right at the back with two multiplugs in it. what you need to do is remove the two multiplugs from the unit, and using a screwdriver, carefully prise the end piece out where the plugs plugged in. with this bit of plastic out of the way, the board within will slide out easily and you can inspect it and repair it. once repaired, simply slide it back in, replace the plastic end cap and plug back in. my dad's was like this for years before i found out what to do. luckily mine's a 3dr so i dont have this problem http://www.discoweb.org/window/index.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westcoastlandy Posted December 19, 2007 Author Share Posted December 19, 2007 cheers for that will have a look. the disco has had a tv installed into the sun viser and all the wiring is behind the glove box, so even more wires. wish i had a three door. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
