There will be part numbers moulded into the casings of both plug and socket parts. Both will begin with 6Q0 97..., I think. May need magnification!

Find your engine code, then find your plug options here: https://www.lllparts.co.uk/catalogs/skoda/CZ/FAB/697/9/905/905000

Hello Josh, I've just sent you a Private Message with my number in it. 👍

Should be fine.

Probably also worth replacing the rubber boot complete with mounting frame, as this damage is clear evidence of water ingress into those non-sealed connectors. Refreshingly inexpensive: Skoda Bellows 6Q0959843K - LLLParts

Think it's this, Jonny: Volkswagen / Audi / Seat / Skoda Flat Contact Housing With<Br>Contact Locking Mechanism 6Q0972716B - LLLParts Repair wire part number handily shown in the table too, by the looks of it.

On the 6Y. series the VW-group part number (6Y2959802A for your car, nothing else will do) and the SK258D4DLS (or whatever) is always on the same label.

Mk1 Fabia can have 6Y2959802A if RHD and all four electric windows, but if used in a LHD Roomster the switches will operate the wrong window. Rather rare anyway. Polo in LHD form will have 6Y2959802A if all four windows are electric, but up/down may be reversed (please check the numbering on yours to confirm). LHD VW Transporter T5 also had 6Y2959802, but never the four electric windows suffix-A version.

Yes, the part numbering of the 6Y... motors is unusual. That bottom line can be very important to avoid LHD (LS)/RHD(RS) mix-ups, and brand/model mismatches. Mk1 Fabia facelift has the only version of this part numbering format which is logical and consistent with VW-group norms. (Where the third digit is 1 for LHD, 2 for RHD; and the 9th digit is 1 for 'fits left side of car' and 2 for right side). All subsequent/other applications have this logic reversed, due to different mounting of motor modules and regulator mechanisms.

Driver's door motor for your car should be 6Y2959802A, with the bottom line of the label saying SK258D4DLS. I think you possibly will find 6Y2959802 and VW240DDLS instead. The direction swap could be fixed on what you have, but it will never operate the rear windows. If you could find a non-working 6Y2959802A with either SK258D4DLS or SK250D4DLS (from Fabia mk2), I know a place in Finland who could repair it. All of the above part number info is for LHD cars only, to avoid confusion amongst UK readers. Also only for Roomsters built up to 04/11/2007.

You do have a LIN window motor system. Can you message me the VIN, so I can check exact part numbers for you? It sounds like the driver's door window motor may have been replaced with one from a Polo, with only front electric windows. I think that might account for the reversal of up/down and lack of activity at rears. VCDS can see none of the system as there is no data connection to anything central.

No, for RHD 41 is 2nd from right, where there is a blue 15A fuse.

But 41? You said in your first post that you'd looked there, but I think that was before you realised that LHD/RHD diagrams were different.

You could take the coin cell out of the fob, and the alarm horn out of the car.

That one will be a 6R0959801M, next generation, not compatible, I believe. Same for anything built after mid-2010.

VCDS Lite, which is the freeware version you can download from ross-tech.com, will work on your car for reading/clearing fault codes. All you need is a laptop with USB port and a cheap (<£20) FTDI/KKL cable to connect it to the diagnostic port.

Have put something in that thread you linked, showing the position in Fabia/Roomster/Polo of that era. Can't find the photos yet to fix it properly. I doubt that Felicia is anything similar, but I just don't know.

Instrument cluster lighting is controlled by CAN messaging from either the J519 module, or directly from the dimmer control switch, as far as I remember. I suspect you'd need that control thumb-wheel thing wired in however it is in the car. I know nothing about changing odometer readings.

Can't find the pics to reinstate them just now, but this thread has images of the drain location (8* in first image, close-up of it next to heater matrix pipes in second diagram) on a LHD Roomster, which will be same as Fabia and Polo, of similar age. RHD cars have it on the other, right side of the heater matrix hoses. Note that from the factory, the drain is covered over by the fabric of the firewall sound insulation. There are perforations in the fabric around the resulting 'bump' enabling access with minimal destruction.

Straight down from cylinder 4 intake ports. Quite unpleasant to access.

@aaaaplay makes a good point above about the interpretation of the instruction, particularly the word 'otherwise'.

The hole just in front of the filler, at the bottom, is a drain, not a vent. There are other pipes coming up to that area, including one to the vent valve, which is opened/closed as the cap is screwed in, by the button-like thing on the right side, which you can accidentally or deliberately press when filling. It is supposed to be actuated by the cap being screwed in. Hard to imagine how any -except the drain pipe - could get blocked. The vent valve could stick, I guess? Look at diagrams of the tank on parts sites such as https://www.lllparts.co.uk/catalogs/ to see representations of the pipework. Diesels won't have the carbon canister or associated pipe(s).

Exterior color / Paint Code 8T / F3K

@CatalinG, tell me the 17 character VIN, and I can tell you the colour.

Have you correctly identified fuse position 41, @EHeath? Bottom row of full size blade fuses, 2nd from right?
