I am hoping someone can give me some tips to solve a couple of minor problems with my cerb. The drivers door window no longer comes down when the door opening button is pressed from inside or out.The door release works fine. Also the passenger interior door release button no longer seems to work. Everything is fine using the external one. Any advice or potential rectification tips would be gratefully received.

Thanks for the help, unfortunately I couldn't solve the problem. I could see a broken orange wire but even when I put it back into position to try it out it didn't do anything. Perhaps the problem is at the back of the button itself on the passenger door in which case I wouldn't know where to begin to fix it. As for the drivers door window not going down when either internal or external door button is pressed, I'm thinking it may be down to the sensor at the base of the door. But this is all only guess work.

Try a magnet on the bottom of the door to see if the reed (read?) switch is working or not, i use this method to clean my side windows properly.

Magnet does nothing on either side even though the passenger door works as normal from the external button. I now thing that it is the button on the inside of the passenger door. But drivers door operates to unlock from inside and out, just the windows do not go down unless the window switches are used.

have a look at the switch in top front end corner of behind the card, the one that tells control box when the window is up or down far enough. i'm having a nightmare with my drivers window..... not going up ur down upon opening and closing. seems like the control box thinks the door is open all the time, maybe magnets, maybe loose wires for door closed sensor???????
