NikpV Posted May 10, 2006 Report Posted May 10, 2006 may be a silly question but have you checked the wires in the loom through the rubber boot into the A -pillar - broken wire here is a common problem Quote
mark1rev Posted May 11, 2006 Author Report Posted May 11, 2006 yes checked wires the motor is clicking you can hear it and feel it when you put hand on motor, sounds like its stuck Quote
NikpV Posted May 11, 2006 Report Posted May 11, 2006 yes checked wires the motor is clicking you can hear it and feel it when you put hand on motor, sounds like its stuck ah-ha any chance of getting someone to operate window while you try easing it down? There was a recent thread where someone was in a similar situation with the window to far down to remove glass, he took it to a garage and they ....... in his own words may be worth a go Quote
NikpV Posted May 12, 2006 Report Posted May 12, 2006 have you tried VW sometimes they charge wildly differing prices for the same bits - e.g tonneau cover fixings - ford Quote
mark1rev Posted May 12, 2006 Author Report Posted May 12, 2006 i have tried euro car parts the motor is less than Quote
