peter deer Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Hi always on the subject of electric windows :my REAR electric windows have stopped working (BOTH) they do not work either from the central console switch or from the door switch neither up or down the front ones are OK I thought :simple and easy ,it is the fuse But the fuse is ok! Could it be a relay? where would such a relay be ? Please help Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disco_al Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 it is usually a bad joint in the window ECU. mine had the same problem, after spending 20 mins stripping the ECU out, re soldering, re fitting it - everything worked fine - for about the time it takes to fix them, next day they had stopped again - so it's going to be back out with the ecu for another soldering session Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
