Hi,my fabia (2000) reg passenger front window will go down from both passenger & drivers side switches but will not go back up at all i have swapped the switches with ones from a scrappy which i know worked fine but made no difference on my car so i swapped the window motor as well & still the window wont come up, does anyone know which wire in the door loom controls the 'up' for the passenger window as it seems a bit unlikely the window motor i got from the scrappy would have exactly the same problem or is this more likely to be a problem with the convenience module? Everything else works fine c/locking, drivers window, mirrors just the passenger window wont go up..help!

Ok got the convenience module out..a bit fiddly but not as bad as i thought..i tried electric windows, c/locking, mirrors with the unit removed just to see what would happen & its exactly as it was before removing it! I thought they wouldnt work at all with this removed so does this mean the unit is completely dead or is there some other problem? I plan on getting a secondhand 1 will i have to have it coded to my car? If so anyone know where in Norwich i can get this done (not main dealers), cheers.

OUCH!! Doesn't fill me with hope lol I hope mine is easier to fix as i like the car

'dave_l' how much do you want for it & whats the part number on it as i guess there will be a few different versions

By reversing i mean the left window switch operates right (drivers)window & same with mirror switch...central locking not working at all. I took off lower section of dash & only unit i can see is above throttle pedal with lots of plugs going into it on both sides it doesnt look like the conveinience unit to me (i have looked them up on ebay) What is the cost (roughly) of having a vagcom diagnostic on a secondhand one of these & i only have 1 key (not remote) for the car can they do it from this?

Hi guys this is my 1st posting, ive just brought a fabia 1.4 8v comfort quite cheap as it has a fault with the c/locking & electric windows control unit (window switches & mirrors reversing!) Never heard of that happening on a car before! I would like to know exactly where this unit is located & how to remove it also i plan to get a used 1 from a scrappy do they need to be coded to my car or are they just plug in & away you go? Many thanks chaps & chapesses.
