hi all
Both fronts & rear n/s windows all work fine . .
But rear o/s behaves as follows . . :-\ It will open from either the drivers switch bank or it's own rear one , stops where ever you want it to . .all good so far :y
but it will not close from either switch until you turn the ignition off, remove key & then re insert the key & switch ignition on. Once closed window will open again , but will not close until the switch off/pull key out etc is carried out :-\ :-\
Any ideas where to start looking? TIA Al :y

It all starts with the drivers door switch, so begin there :y
You can readily swap the rear door switches to rule them out too, but rear switches are powered from the drivers door regardless...
-
Are you sure its just that one, as the schems show both sides take same feeds.
The drivers doorswitch may affect the consumer relay

Asume you mean the actual window switches ? I have a spare drivers switch bank & a couple of rears as well. Will have a swop about tomorrow if those are what you mean.
thanks ;)

Yes Jamie, only that one . . all others open & close repeatedly with no problem
Bit strange eh ? :-\ :-\ :-\
Is there a window "Reset" proceedure that can be done ? :-\

Exactly, but swap the existing rears side to side and see if the fault moves before trying a n other switch... if no change then try the drivers switch and if still no change, it will be out with the multimeter :D

Also pull F1 and F35 for an hour or so, then replace. Then try again.

Ok Jamie . . . will do switch swop around first though before pulling fuses
thanks . . :y :y

Mine's been the same for about 18months.
As it gets used about 3 times a year, I've ignored it ;D
-
Lol ;D switches first and report back ;)
But I have a further hunch if all checks out ok...

Yes Nick . . . . same here really . . .not gonna be a real problem as will very rarely use it
Just wondering what the cause is . . . & if an easy fix I will . . .if not I won't
but will start with suggestions given so far ;) ;)

Ok Doc . .will do ;) ;)

I suspect the switches are my problem, as the driver's window(the only one that matters) sometimes needs a long press to go down.
I'm ignoring that too, until it becomes a consistent fault or somebody posts a replacement switch panel through the letter box 8)

Ok update . First swopped over both rear switches.. . same outcome o/s rear window will not close until ignition turned off /key removed/key returned & ignition turned back on.
Also changed drivers door switch bank for another . .. same result .
Put all original switches back in . . .still the same result.
BUT . . . noticed that the o/s rear puddle light was not lighting when door was opened :o
So removed pin switch & spryed inside with switch cleaner . . puddle light now comes on every time . . .& rear window is now operating as it should . . all be it a bit slow as it has probably not been used for quite some time .
Also . . although the central locking worked from the fob when I got this car recently . . . the dead locking did not. . . now it works :o :o
Was the sticking puddle light pin the problem with the window & the dead locking, or have I just moved or touched something that has made these issues work again? :-\ :-\
It seems fixed so thanks guys for your input :y :y
I will however start another thread on the subject of the central locking not re-setting when you put key in turn to position II & push lock . . .as this another fault I need to look at

Silicon spray on the rubbers :y
