I have an intermittent drivers window fault on my 2005 2.0 HDI whereby it fails to operate when you push the button, passenger window is fine. Solution I have found is to switch the engine off then restart it and it works again. I have read on the forum it could be a dry joint in the windows relay box but that doesn't explain why turning the engine off and on makes it work again. I have an MOT due in March, an instant fail if the window fails to open?
Oh and I should point out here that both the windows will only operate with the engine running NOT on ignition only if you see what I mean.
I do have other electrical issues with cigarette lighter, 12v socket and heated rear window not working either. The hrw light that comes on, on the switch lights up ok its just the element that doesn't heat up.
Could all these issues be linked to my ABS light problems (see post - Checking Maxi Fuses) and if so does anyone have any ideas what is wrong. Have tried to reset the bsi on many occasions but this has no effect.
Many thanks,
