hi i have just bought another 300tdi and so let the problems begin lol i have only 1 window working the drivers 1 the fuse was popped when i bought her so didnt have any windows working i have just been out and fitted a replacement ECU but i still only have 1 window working ive also tried the 1 switch i know that works on the other windows but nothing please help what can i do and where to go next
:confused:
 
off ebay but spoke to man and its got gurantee and seems a bit strange that still 3 windows not workin think i need to get someone to test if ive got power to ecu and power to windows if it turns out there is no power is there a way round it as i need to be able to open my windows
many thanks
sam
 
Sam I had the same problem and someone gave me a link to a site
which showed a common fault with the ecu where as a contact dries
out I re-soldered it and hey presto they now work. Probably take a guarentee
from anything of ebay with a pinch of salt.
 
ok ty im finding more and more problems only had her 2 days lol ABS warning bulb removed..... only 1 window......... and no boot floor its like a bloody flintstone car in the back knew i should of took dad with me when i got it :mad: the bloke sure see me coming

i have same problem on osf window . done the same as you but no go .. if i put power straight to motor it works both ways , but it only goes up on a switch and not down... i gave up with it .....
 
lol yep mine the same im going to keep trying 2 kids and 2 dogs in there in the summer not good i will let u know the outcome and if i / a friend gets it going wot we / he did
 
When mine was doing that it was the switch that was dodgy, they are easy enough to pull apart and clean up. But if youve swapped it for a working switch and its still not working it could be the ECU you can pull them apart and resolder the joints if they are dry.
 
can you fit a temporary set of wires from one of the working doors to the duff one.... if it then works you know the motors good... or not if it dont. if the motors good presumably there must be 4 outputs off the ecu... can you swop them over?...connect the front door to the outputs for the rear , that would tell you if its faulty wiring tween the ecu and the door.
 
Could you d/load the "rave" cd, links on this site, and follow electrickery fault finding? basic stuff but it works for main stealers. XXX ( don't tell the wife ):)
