Any thoughts on what to check? Opens from inside and drivers side all fine.
Thx

If it doesn't get used often, like mine, it stops working due to lack of use. A new button should fix it, however I keep pressing a wiggling it until it springs into life, and then it's fine.

Question has been asked 100's of times but the search doesnt work to well. I trolled for ages a few weeks ago and found this, its the best explanation of what to check I have seen. Hope it helps

I have been flat out at work and not been on here much the last week or so. The post you linked to is mine - I created that as it seemed a common problem and one I knew how to fix so thought I would try and create a guide.

The only difference is in step one when testing the button from the boot in this picture here:


You need to test on the next orange wire to the right with the negative probe.

If you have any problems following the instructions let me know. I have spend most this morning back in the door/window Cerbera world fixing another problem with the passenger window not dropping. I will try and create a new guide type post later if I am not too drunk (just going to the pub) that will walk through how you fix the "My window does not drop or raise" issue. Mark (P9 AJP) my next guide might be of some interest to you.

I will await your post, still not fixed my window not dropping issue, the rain hasn't stopped enough. Last time I drive though it was working, seems to have healed itself but we all know that won't last.

Your guides are brilliant and saved me a lot of time scratching my head. Knowing that the control unit wasnt at fault from the beginning was a massive help.

Thank you for taking the time to make them and helping the rest of us out. I deffinately appreciate it.
