Technical drivers side electric window doesnt work please help :)

[mikejt]

the window electrics in my mk2 have been doing my head in!!!

there are 4 switches, left- up and down and right- up and down

you would think, by shorting the 2 pins for the push switch you are effectively closing the switch, therefore the window goes up..... nooo, just sparks!!

so then you would think, 2 wires to a DC motor, wiring it to a 12v supply one way sends it up, another way sends it down... no, just sparks again!!!!

i was trying to use the auto close feature on my alarm but gave up



anyway, hope youve got yours sorted now! if not, try what has been said, checking all the connections... also try the fuse (i dont know if they use a seperate fuse for each window but it would be annoying to do a lot of work to find its just a fuse!)

Heyyyy FINALLY GOT IT FIXED. Took out the motor, noticed lots of wiring and a plug was corroded. So dad took it down the electrical car garage. Only like 30 quid for labour and new wires soldered on ... when the garage round the back of house was two weeks wait and like 60 odd quid an hrs labour. Got a bargain really for how cheap they were
Hopefully i have no more probs with this car lol
Thanks missey you were so helpful
