    I think everyone needs this sorting. I need the 2 plug one and they are hard to get hold of other than the £160 asking price brand new.

  • I need to get my friend who DID have a vRS LE until recently to put you straight on this one. He is a member in here but probably doesn't come in here as often now.   He had this problem a few mont

I'm a bit lost with mine to be honest. Just my windows don't work, the drivers side hasn't worked since last November! Reset them and the passenger side works for a very brief period, a few minutes infact. Sure its the controller thingy gone on the drivers side motor but I've been waiting over 7 weeks for a new one. If I took it to my Skoda dealer and they found it was the motor what the hell would they do! 

Polluxtroy69 have you got that secondhand motor? And if you have does it work? I'm still waiting for a new one, after 6 weeks!

Yeah I have got it. It came 2 days later. Fitted and fully working now. £32 well spent. Did you get yours? I'll try and remember what site I got it from. I mailed the guy like 6 times and he never got back to me. 

How have people found buying one since?

So if the motor in the drivers door goes it sends everything abit doo Lally ? ?

Have I heck as like. Eight weeks today I ordered a new one and still no joy. But finding a secondhand one seems no easier.

Seriously? That is a JOKE!! How did you pay?

 

I got mine from a company called 'motors in motionLTD' but I got it from a site like ebay that just sold car parts, but I have no idea what it's called. Give the guy an email and see if they have any more, hir email is [email protected]

 

Hope the email helps.

Thanks for that. The one on order is at my local retailer and thankfully hasn't been paid for!

Contacted them and they haven't got one. But still a handy place to know about as they're only 50 miles away from me.

just bought my Fabia and the windows do not work :( Guess I will try to make my own looms and bypass the originals.

I've bit the bullet and ordered one. None in the uk so hopefully will be 7-10 working days to come from Czech Republic. £148 but I can't take it any longer

Can I just say for reference (from the start of the thread) when inspecting the wires in the rubber door boots, given the correct squeeze or gentle persuasion with a screwdriver, the white plastic clip will come away from the pillar with the rubber boot still sealed over it. This way the whole boot with clip just pops in and out in seconds, no wrestling to get the boot back over the clip

My motor turned up today after only 3 days, fitted and now can get air in the car!!! Not even bothered about the £150 I can't tell you how much pleasure I'm getting from using my windows!!!!!!

Eureka!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've finally got my windows fixed. Saw a new old stock motor on ebay for £85. Bought it Monday, got it Tuesday and fitted it Tuesday night. For the first time since last November my windows work.

My part is on order from skoda so just the waiting game :( hopefully itl fix my mirrors as they went at the same time :-(

It's above the clutch pedal.

Nah it's the convenience unit. It controls elec windows, central locking, interior lights etc.

Ahhhh interesting shall look into this if the Motor doesn't work :-)

  • 2 weeks later...

Fixed mine, it was the drivers side switches buggered. New ones £31 from TPS in Exeter. Tested and all is very good now :)

Ok so both window motors been replaced both switches only the convinience box to look at now but still no working windows :-( likely hood of it being the convinience box ?

Ok sorted now was passenger motor was the wrong coded one :-)

Ok guys and girls its packed in again I have the motors which are posted above SK2 I've told them to try the SK1 what's te chances of this working and which is the newer code ??

  • 1 year later...

Apologies to resurrect an old thread but it has been identified today by skoda that the window motor control unit has gone (for some reason an auto electrician has said it was the body control module!)

Anyway, is the correct part number for a 2005 car 6Y2959802 as I'm going to have a hunt to see if I can pick one up 2nd hand rather than have to lash out £160 at Skoda?
