Thanks

Hi folks. Does anyone know how I can find my paint code? Theres no data sticker in the boot, I’ve looked under the spare wheel and carpets. No data sticker in the service book ect like my old golf had. Ive joined my Skoda, put the vin in and it’s not giving me any info about what it’s code is. Just what the data sticker is and to look in the boot or service book for it. Its a 2007 mk2 Octavia vrs (pre facelift) 2.0 diesel pd if that makes any odds, there’s also a picture of it on my profile if that helps. Cheers

Cheers No, not properly. Just for obvious signs of breaking without stripping to much back. If I don’t get anywhere with the fuses and it persists, the drivers door will be getting stripped and properly inspected. Is yours also a mk2 Octavia?

Wierd!!! I may start another thread regarding this if I continue to have problems. I will have a mess around with the fuses again if it persists. Although, as the passenger side was working from its switch I do feel the problem lies within the drivers door. I’ll only have to worry about the fronts, but I assume you were testing/messing around with fuses 23 and 32 from the last picture posted? Thanks for the reply

Hi Gents The plot thickens Hope you guys haven’t lost interest yet. Replaced fuses checked all the relays I was messing around with prior to loosing my electric windows and mirrors with no joy, still not working. Then I realised today that the passenger side window was working with the passenger side switch. (There’s no electric windows in the rear). I disconnected the battery then reconnected, windows and mirrors worked for a while then failed again. I’ve also now noticed that when they fail, all electrics to do with the drivers door fail, so the interior lights don’t come on when I open the drivers door during fail but they do when opening all other doors in the car, and the light in the bottom of the door on the speaker also doesn’t work during fail. But when I disconnect the cars battery and reconnect it, they all start working again. Any ideas guys?

Okay dok, I’ll give it a try guys. Thanks

Holy f—k, I’m loosing the will to live! Revisited all the fuse and relays, all seem fine, windows and mirrors still not working 🤬🤬🤬🤬

Post I found on here

Hi guys, thanks for the help. The car is a 2007 vrs. Light are now fixed. 🙌 I spent a bit of time last night unplugging and the putting back every relay I could find one by one. No luck, then I spent ages looking through the net and I found a post a guy had made on here about the fuse box diagram being wrong, so I went back to the fuse board and checked all the light fuse based on that post, found a blown fuse, 🤦‍♂️🙈 now all the lights are working correctly. So that drama is over but now my electric window and door mirrors aren’t working🙈🤦‍♂️. Don’t know if I’ve not put a relay back correctly. I’ll have to go and take the dashboard to bits again and check. The only other thing I did was change the glass on the drivers side mirror, would putting the terminals for the heated mirrors on the wrong way round stop the mirrors and windows from working? I’ve checked all the fuses this time, they seem ok. OMG I hope this is a quicker/easier fix to find than the lights

I can’t say I’m certain, the low beam isn’t turning off and the fog lights aren’t working. Normally when the light switch are at the off position, my day time running lights are on at the front and back and the dash board lights are out, switch to side lights and the drl’s turn of, side lights on, then switch to the final position and the low beam, back lights and dash board light up and I can turn the fog lights on. I’ve tried a new switch with no joy. I’ve been told to try the relay. Can’t find its position after hours of searching the net. But they do sell headlight relays on eBay, relay 456, when I put my car details in, it says, this part fits your vehicle. So I’m assuming there is a headlight relay jammed on. But I’m not certain. Checked behind the dash under the steering wheel and the box under the bonnet.

Don’t think it’s there. The only relay in that box is a 370, when removing it, the headlights stay on. Pretty sure it’s a 456

Hi guys. i can’t find the headlight relay on my car. It’s not among the bunch of relays behind the switch for the side lights. Anyone know where it is? Think it’s a 456 Thanks
