Title: rear window conversion
Post by: stuthespread on 28 January 2010, 16:12:14
i've just converted my manual rear windows to electric,problem is i don't seem to have any power going to them(light in the switch not illuminating)i replaced the loom to accomodate the motors etc,reset the windows but nothing's happening.the front windows are working fine and the rear switch lights on the switches in the centre console are illuminated as they should be,i've also checked the fuse.should anything else have been fitted apart from the motors as there is a spare connector on the loom that doesn't seem to go anywhere.

We had to put it off due to Josh's RTC. Check the wire colours under the rear door switches and check for the same colours in the drivers footwell.

checked the wiring on the loom that comes from the car to the door and it would appear that all the wires are missing from the plug.can this just be replaced with correct loom or is it a bit more complicated than that?

Looks like you'll need to change the sections both sides from the kick plates back to the B post. What year is your car?
