Help with Door module

[Shinjuku79]

My pass door window has stopped going up and down. Neither switch works it. The electric mirror still moves and folds. Does the door module control both window and mirror - and if so do these facts mean that the door module is not the problem?

Thanks in advance

I found that pulling and replacing the fuse for the respective door module (the specific fuse for your car's individual door modules should be pointed out and are likely to be 25amp fuses) does the trick in getting the module to behave properly. For my car (Rapide) all electrical functions for the door are on that fuse including the mirrors and windows. All I needed to do was reset the windows after I deprive the door module of power for a few seconds via the fuse maneuver.

The instructions for the window resetting process are well documented by searching this forum...but in short it involves holding the "down" window switch for 5 seconds once the window reaches full down position...then the same procedure for the "up" setting on that same window remembering to hold for an additional 5 seconds once the window as reached it's full "up" position.

Thanks for the reply. Earlier in the BH I'd gone in to check the fuse and, on discovering there was nothing wrong with it, I put it back in somewhat irritated. Then the window started working again!

So, I agree with the gent above - if your window stops working pull the fuse out and put it back in. I think a way to check without excavating the floor to get to the fuse box is that, if the door mirror and glass still moves, then that tells you (i) the module is probably OK and (ii) the fuse is OK. That leaves only the window regulator as the likely other failure. Pulling the fuse then allows you to discount that the module has gone "temporarily off grid" from the car's point of view.
