  1. When I put a fuse in for the rear windows it was sparking as tho it had power to the fuse location . the clicking noise is coming from the motor in the door . I’ve pulled the door sleeves back to look at the wires and can’t see anything standing out . Had both rear door cards and drivers door card off and had a look at the wires and plugs going in to the modules and can’t see anything . Looks all clean .
  2. Do relays fail ? Didn’t really move any wires . Not to make a difference I don’t think . The internal fuse box holder isn’t live anymore . The passenger rear window just clicks now when you try and use it from the drivers switch and the door switch . Could this be the motor itself that’s not working for it to do this
  3. Right I’ve pulled the white/yellow fuse thing on the left and put it back in . I’ve tried a 20amp fuse should be 30amp but haven’t got one and it didn’t spark . Tried the rear windows and only the drivers rear worked . The passanger side didn’t . I’ve really done nothing to make it work apart from pulled that fuse type out and back in The window switch on the drivers door when no fuse is in you press the drivers rear button to go down you hear a clicking BUT don’t on the passanger side BUT you hear the clicking on that side when you press to close the window . Oppsite way . Hope that makes sense . Any ideas ?
  4. Thank you for this ! I’ll try and take the dash apart this weekend and see if I can see anything . Definitely heard it behind the dash and I did do a silly thing and hold the fuse there but if I didn’t I wouldn’t of heard the spark noise . Unsure how or if a wire would be chaffed behind the dash tho unless it’s wear and tear ?
  5. Possibly pal . It’s live all the time without the ignition on . If there’s a live somewhere on one of the rear doors it would still blow the fuse as there on the same circuit.. if I have one door love it still blow I’m thinking for both . If you could look at your manual I’d be really grateful.
  6. No definitely came from behind the dash the crackle . The fuse blows as soon as it’s inserted . Before hand they worked then after a day or so it would blow guess down to overheating . Not sure if the front windows are on the same wiring circuit as the back but they all work fine . They also worked fine until the rear window fell out of its holder and fell into the door , fixed that and since then they blown the fuse . I’ll pull the door harness back when I get home and see if I can see anything . I’ve also pulled the harness for the rear doors and it still blows the fuse
  7. Internal fuse panel . Just the rear windows fuse have blown nothing else . Front work fine . There’s no fuse in at the moment for the rear windows
  8. Hello all , I have a Skoda Octavia fl TDi vrs and I’m having problems with the rear windows not working . It keeps blowing the fuses which are a 30amp . I’ve unplugged the all the doors one by one and tried a fuse in each time and they still blow . When I tried a fuse in last time I heard a crackle/spark behind the dash under the steering wheel . Could this be the problem or is it sparking there due it begin a weaker part ?
  9. It’s a common fault . The drain holes on the boot seal are on the top side not the bottom so it has no way off draining away . I had this problem and my spare wheel well had about an inch of water in it . I’d get a Stanley knife blade and cut some holes in the rubber on the underside . This should sort it . I’ve had no more water in the boot .
  10. The problem started when the drivers rear window fell out of its holder . I fixed that and thought job done . Wife drove it afew days after and said they wasn’t working again . I found out it had blown the fuse . So changed it and it work , next day same thing happened again . Took it to a auto electrics place and he disconnected all the doors and still it blown the fuse . It’s live as you put the fuse in . He said it’s nothing to do with what I’ve done . It could be the wiring going to the central convenience module or that itself . I didn’t have the funds to fix it at that time . Been out today and tried a fuse in to see and it sparks still only had a 40amp fuse to hand not a 30amp as it should be (didn’t put the fuse in just touched it) BUT also heard a spark behind the dash under the steering wheel . I took the drivers side plastics off and the wiring looks neat and tidy no water damage that I can see ( carpets never been wet mind you ) So hearing that spark behind the dash making me think it’s the central convenience as nothing has changed before or after the window dropped out .everything else works as it should still . Can anyone think what it could be ?
  11. I’ve got a FL TDi VRS and the rear windows keep blowing the fuse . As you put the fuse in for the rear windows it sparks also . I’ve unplugged the rear doors on both sides and Put a fuse in and it sparks still and blows the fuse . Has anyone had this problem ? Someone has asked if you had any water in the drivers footwell and I’ve not seen or felt any and also said it could be the module itself . Any input would be appreciated.
  12. Thank you so much john999boy ! And to everyone that replied, I tried the search bar and searching member but couldn’t find him . Guess I was doing something wrong . I’ll have a look through and see if i can find anything .
  13. Hi all , I’m looking for my dads old profile on here but can’t seem to find it . I thought his name was wolf in sheeps clothing . Is there anyway admin can search for his real name ? I’m trying to find out his old cars reg as all the picturea I can find has his private plate on . Thanks
  14. I'm only lowered 30mm . I've put a straight edge down the side of the and when measured back it's only 20mm so would this mean the wheel stick out 9mm more then the bodywork ?
