cannot open or close windows
« on: 11 July 2015, 17:54:46 »

PFL 2000 2.5 petrol manual CDX estate. I am striving to repair the driver's door strap. Have removed door card. It would help if I could close the driver's door window, but it doesn't work. Ignition on, engine running, the front door windows do nothing. They worked before. Fuse 7 is OK. What could it be?

To check voltage to the motors etc, do they wind up with the lock up procedure, ie lock car and hold down remote fob button or key in the door lock
 fully left and hold.

Seems to be. The courtesy light remained on until I removed it. I had disconnected the door mirror adjuster, but on reconnecting,  it adjusted the door mirror satisfactorily, with satisfying whirring noises.

NO they don't. However the driver's door locks and unlocks, inferring that the loom is connected OK.

Drivel removed.

Be helpful, not insulting, or shut up.

Door was open. Closed door, tried again. Window still does not close.
Probably not relevant, but this morning I removed the scuttle, and it is still removed.

Ok, recheck that everything is connected, shut all the doors and lock with the remote... Keep the lock button pressed and report back...
