I have a variation on this problem with my 2003 Freelander S.
Tonight I shut the back door, the window did not go up. I tried to open it and can hear a click and some whirring but nothing happens. I read various posts and tried "unlocking" with the key in the door, but again to no effect. I then read about lowering the window using the switch at the front. I did that OK. The door does not open and now the window, will not go up at all. Not so good at this time of year.
Any suggestions welcome!
Thanks
Ed
PS the door is fixed shut but not tight shut.

SORTED!
After a lot of electrical investigations, and cursing, my problem turned out to be a simple mechanical one - a strip of rubber seal had got stuck in the lock. It took a lot of loosening and undoing through the 1/2 inch of access. Once freed the window would operate normally (well once the detachable roof was back in place (switch depressed) and the door was closed).
Thank goodness.
