Hi all,

New to the TVR fora, but wondering if there may be any advice here which might be able to assist a family member who is currently getting very wet. The window on his S2 was apparently very willing to go down, but trying to get it to go back up is being far less successful - unfortunately he has over a hundred miles to go, and it's raining fairly heavily frown

Again, apologies for barging in and any advice gratefully received on any "known" electrical issues or potential roadside resolutions!

Cheers smile

I am assuming it is electric. Try swapping the window switches over L-R, they just pull out of the centre console.

But be careful.... on earlier cars there are lots of separate wires onto the switch (not a multi-plug) very easy to get things muddled up!

Has he tried "helping the window", pulling up while pressing switch?

Thanks for all the quick help guys - as it turned out, on pulling the switch in an attempt to swap with the passenger one, the act of wiggling the wires seemed to resolve the problem!

So crisis averted, and a problem to solve properly on a less rainy day smile

Thanks again!
