300tdi rear electric window problem
« on: July 14, 2011, 18:45:14 »
hi all, my rear windows on my truck are very temperamental.... theyve started to not work initially occasionally, but, now most of the time.
ive called landrover to see if there is a control module for the rear windows but they said the control modules are for left and right.
i cant see any wiring issues, tho i havent had the carpets up to trace wiring yet.
any suggestions at all folks?
cheers!

Hiya, chances are it will be the dry soldered joints on the control board which is mounted behind the glovebox. Do a search for this on google and there is a very good diagram showing you how to fix the fault. Or do like i'm going to do this time and fit manual window winders.

i followed the instructions on google and pulled the circuit board out of its case, found the dry solder and resoldered it.

Any chance of a linky?  I've heard of this before and now I find it's my turn to have a go.

A 20 minute fix, that'll make a change.
