I would appreciate some advice regarding my driver's side window.
The window is up at the moment but does not respond to the switch being put in the down position, however I can hear a clicking noise in the door. Do these windows have relays behind the door panel, I didn't think that they did.

Also, does anyone have a window wiring diagram, apart from the one in the bible?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Unless someone did the power mod, by adding a relay and a heavier 12v feed. Before it broke, did it move fast up and down?
It certainly didn't go up & down fast! So I guess no relay added. Thanks anyway.

Thanks Smoggy will try battery reset, has worked for ECU faults in the past.

And thanks Steve..email sent.

When I first bought mine the glass refused to move until I removed a child's Ladybird book from inside the door.
It wasn't this book by any chance?



I will try rocking the windows before I delve into the wiring - thanks for suggestion.

The fault turned out to be one of the switches, it worked upwards but not downwards.

Although it is said to be a Cavalier Mk 3 part I couldn't find anything like it on eBay so have gone to TVR Parts for an OE one.

Thanks every one for advice etc.
