Door won't open.

[gruffalo]

Does any one have a Windows a doors control box I could try out, I think mine is intermittent.

The symptoms are that it keeps refusing to wind the drivers window all the way up whilst also refusing to open the doers or boot.

If I leave it half an hour then it will normally work fine or I may have to disconnect the plugs off the box in the boot to reset it.

Am I correct in thinking it is most likely the box in the boot going tits up, at first I thought it may be a door switch but that seems OK as the interior light seems to switch on and off fine when the door is opened and closed.

Any thoughts?

Cheers chaps, I will take the door cards off tomorrow and clean every thing up.

Still suspicious of the control box as it all comes back to life when I disconnect the box and reconnect.

It effects both doors and windows.

Thanks Ian, not received it yet but I am sure it will get here in due course.

That is a very kind offer, I will try cleaning all the connectors to,or row and if no joy I will take you up on this offer as I think you are not a million miles from me.

Cheers

Thanks Jody.

I will have a go with a different control box first as Ian has said I can try his and I think STR8six also have one I may be able to try.

Today I tried to get the door cards off and failed due to one rust bolt on each door so I am off down the tool shop tomorrow to get a 4mm Allen key socket so I can get some leverage on it so I can clean up the connectors if a second box displays the same issues.

If it is the box that is faulty I will have a look probably ask you to do a repair Jody in exchange for beer tokens.

Cheers everyone, thanks for your help.

Just to update.

Got to love the Cerbera, but it seems to have sorted itself out so obviously a sticky reed switch.

I have a couple on order from RS and will change at least the drivers side as I am certain it was that side causing a problem. It obviously didn't like being left for 3 month with the body sat on a couple of pallets while the chassis work was completed.

Thanks for all the input and very useful suggestions, great community in the Cerbera world.
