Hi all, I'm sitting on the drive trying to fix my windows. The Drivers door handle broke on Saturday and and at about the same time the tailgate button stopped working and the passenger side windows stopped working- except the front passenger window goes down - and is now down - but will not go up, though I can hear a faint single tick when pushing the up button as if some relay or similar wants to go up.

At the same time the rear passenger window will not go up or down from the centre console - but will go up and down when operated from the switch in the door.

I get a LH Front Window not set, Rear Window..message when putting the key in the ignition.

Any suggestions how to fix the issues?

Cheers, Nick
 
The front drivers window and rear drivers side work fine from the switch pack - the centre console. They all appeared to pack up when the door handle broke - but that could have been a coincidence....
Which fuse and earth?
 
I was wondering if maybe the switch pack is playing up?
What about the sunroof?
Don't have a sunroof.
Its too much of a coincidence that after being in and out of it every day that the window packs up at the same time as the tailgate and the rear passenger window. Seems to be affecting the passenger side and tailgate only.
 
Have you checked your fuses. There is an earth that runs pretty much the whole length of the vehicle can cause mayhem inc boot button.

Did it all appear at once? As you may have more than one problem
If it was a fuse would the down button work on the passenger side? Down works - Up, not so much.....
 
I was going to try and be helpful, but since the latest Win 10 release Rave no longer works.
The Adobe player just dies. so no more RAVE. :(
 
I run RAVE on a Win10 box at home...and also at work we have a 1 month old 3XS Mobile Workstation Laptop with Core i9 9900K and an RTX 2080 running the very latest Win10 with the recent updates RAVE works fine for me on that too....

Best start looking through the wiring diagrams on RAVE to find any common earths, wiring, or fuse layouts.
 
The drivers door lock grounds through the door latch, if your tailgate is playing up it is more than likely the microswitches going up the creek..
@martyuk has tests to check the Microswitches i believe.
