help has anybody experienced and resolved this problem??? drivers window will not work at all tried replacin master switch ,amplifier, fuse, checked fuse under the bonnet too. passenger side window works fine. also ive wired the motor directley to a battery and the motor works fine (ie window goes up and down) totaly *****xed by it!!!! any ideas?

Relay box is faulty. I *think* its in the passenger door, will check, hang on ;)

Nope its in the drivers door, and I should have read your post properly DOH! Does sound like the amplifier though...

hmmmm tried the amplifier still no joy. cant get me head round at the mo

mine doesnt work too i can hear something clicking in the door is it the relay? and how hard is it to change

Sorry to Jump on here but mine does not work either is it a seperate fuse

for each window as my passenger side is also fine

 

Cheers

yeah the relay/amplifier is behind the drivers door panel easy to change. mine also clicks tried another amplifier yesterday still no joy then tried master switch still the same checked all the fuses all ok too. wired up the window to a battery it works fine so i know its not the motor wot else is there to check? its totaly done me at the mo!!!

oh forgot to add the passenger door works fine. must be a common fault just need to find someone who,s found the gremlin

my passenger window stopped working for some unknown reason. any idea why

my passenger window stopped working for some unknown reason. any idea why

Cos you pressed the "lock button" in front of the switches and didnt realise???????? :slap:

well if that is the case it would still open from the drivers side.

right just tried soldering the dry joints on the amplifier ! still got clicking but no window working... petrol matches come too mind!!

if i bang the panel the window sometimes works

yep thats wot mine did but now totaly has given up

does anyone know how to put in earths to by pass amplifier???

Had the same problem which was dry solder joints in the amp in my case, but that's no help to you!

 

But I did look into how I could bypass the amp. The switch energises one of 2 pins at +12V depending on up or down(*). However the window motor needs to be driven either way, so it's not as simple as bunging in a few wires- you'll need 2 relays, plus a multimeter to find out which are the switch feeds and which are the motor lines.

 

I started thinking about 1-touch up and down, but then my brain exploded.

* = and an additional 1 of 2 pins if you press harder for single-touch operation

nobody has any ideas what it could be

same problem here

I also have a problem with my drivers door window - it wont go up or down if the weather has been cold, once the car has been running for a while and warms up then it works fine. All through the summer months it is fine then as soon as the weather gets colder its back to its tricks again!

 

very strange

mine was the relay i changed it and all was well :hyper:
