Check all the connectors to the BECM for corrosion. (disconnect the battery before unpluging)

on drivers side take cover off the post and hav a look at the plug, if it is green as mine was that will be one of your problems. mine did a lot of what yours is doing..

what post mate??

the post your door bolts on to, has a trim cover on it take it off. you will see loads of wires with a big plug, befor you unplug take your bat lead off, so not to blow anything..

do i have to do anything befor i disconnect the battery and you talking about the plastic cover on the a post or there a cover somewhere near the hinges soz if stupid question just not infront of the car at the min be back in 15 mins so will look

we talking about the cover near the bonnet pull im taking it have removed and earths look intact am just going to disconnect the bat and see what plugs etc are like anymore ideas let me know will pop back in in a few mins to check laptop thanks again for help so far

hi again think i found the problem there was a plug that was corroded/dirty so have cleaned them all up and re conected the battery and seems to have solved the problem the only thing now is i cant get the passenger side front window to set have tried several times now up/down in one action etc etc but no joy any ideas on this pls and also thanks for all the advice saved me hours of searching im sure thanks again

if your car has been laid up for a while, just leave it a few days and try again, i had this when mine a sat for the winter..

no car has been in daily use but left it for 4-5 hours and is fine now so will leave alone if its working but thankyou everyone for all the help its much appriciated thanks

Re the windows not re-setting properly.

Had that several times on both my Mk2 Rover 800's (similar system). In my case it was simply that the window channels had become dry and were slowing the window's operation, which tricked the gubbins into not recognising when the window could and couldn't run freely...hence no one-touch up or down.

Lube the window runners with rubber/nylon lubricant - from Halfords in a big yellow aerosol (it's a bit like a slightly slimy WD40). Hopefully that will sort it. It's cheap and easy, so painless (just watch for overspray on interior trim or on the glass).

Hope that helps?

cheers mate has sorted itself out now but will do this anyway as think would help as does seem dry as you say thanks
