I have a fiat panda 2007 and the window will not go up anymore.

I think it's the drivers window motor not working, there is no power going to the motor. The switch is ok and the fuse is ok.

Where can I find the relay so I can check if this is the problem?

Also the heating has suddenly stopped working.

Thanks
 
The relays are to the right and below the steering wheel behind a cover on a rhd car. If the relay is ok check the wiring in the rubber sleeve by the door hinges.
 
Fix the heater. Only got the Panda yesterday evening to teach my partner how to drive. Only two issues with our new 57 plate Panda the drivers window and the heater/blower.

Heater is now working fine. After checking fuses and relay (the relay had been put in the wrong place by the dealer or who ever had the care previously.

All to do now is fix the drivers window.
 
For ANY cold heater issues always check the engine coolant.

That sounds like panic mongering but when the coolant level drops the head gasket will fail. These engines carry very little coolant so always check.
 
Will do thanks.

Progress with drivers window not working. ITS HELD UP BY A PIECE OF WOOD. see photo.

Now that was a shock, I also live within 5 mins drive of scrap yards
Not one has a Panda so it will be an eBay job for the motor and mechanism.
 
Trying again with the photo

Definitely the Eco model!
Sorry, couldn't resist.
Motors usually fairly reliable. Has it been disconnected?
If it has and the problem is mechanism then there are loads of posts on the plastic clip which fails, resulting in noisy/stuttering action, or sometimes complete failure of window to go up or down.
If it is the motor, there are loads around (because they don't often fail) - try scrappies selling bare doors, as they will have removed the motor & mechanism prior to selling doors.
 
Oh yes, probably worth changing out the plastic clip anyway while you are fixing.
And don't forget to replace the butchered plastic liner, or the door card will go mouldy.
The eBay seller I used to get plastic clips from has disappeared. Anyone got another good source? Passenger window on the Sporting has just started to clunk and I've lost the spare ones I bought last time.
