Drivers door Electrical Fault?

Post by tjdixon »

Noticed a couple of things lately, just wondered if others have suffered the same?

1. When adjusting the Drivers side mirror, the passenger side does the same action.

2. The drivers side windows controls do not work when the car is first started, but will work fine 10 seconds later, discovered last night the passenger one works straight away.

Anyway has anyone else suffered from similar, thinking I may as well get them sorted now as opposed to waiting for a Service as I'll only forget!

2) Why not give the windows a "reset". Engine running, fully down, fully up, then request fully up again for 2 seconds.

Exactly - and you don't need to read the manual to find that - just experiment :nod:
