This is brilliant info, thank you for making it a little easier to plot out how I’m going to attack this 🙂

That’s really helpful, I’m a little out of my depth with this one so if I can easily rule out things like the outstation then it’s a winner.

Does any of the wiring for the windows run via any of the usual water ingress spots?

Hi folks, thank you for the replies.

Locks and mirrors work just fine on the affected door. I’m not the greatest at electrical faults so if I can understand the circuit path am essentially looking for a break somewhere?

The fault happened very suddenly but it was intermittent for 3-4 mins before dying completely. Thankfully I’d managed to get the window closed before it did.

Could I pull the door card off and apply 12v to the motor to rule the simple things out?

Hi folks,

My near side front window has stopped working. It’s not the switch pack, as I’ve changed it for a known good one and have the same result.
Interestingly when I press the button to the down position it brings up the “window not set” message (last job I did before the failure involved removing the battery)

What other points in the circuit would you advise I check? I’m trying to concoct a structure to chase the fault but not sure where to start.

Amazing.... this is brilliant. I’m willing to have a go!

Wow.... you’ve been busy with this problem!

Firstly: thank you for the help and advice.

I like your idea to fix the problem, and I assume using the older door amps means that you don’t have the same problem with chips frying?

I’m really keen to keep the car original (even though the sat nav is mince, it works). Depending on what level of work and expertise is involved I’d be interested in your solution (I can solder, but not PCB level stuff).

Hi Marty (sorry to drag up an older post)

I was recently directed to this forum, looks like a really good place to natter.

I’ve just had a frustrating day on the various FB groups after asking for advice. I have this system and the amp appears to be knackered. Radio powers up, sat nav even works .... no sound.

I can’t justify spending 1/4 of the car’s value on a replacement amp, but was toying with taking your diagram to either an auto electrical specialist or audio installer to see if the amp can either be fixed or a replacement fabricated.

Did you ever find a solution to getting the system working ?

Cheers in advance

Chris
