Window switch light

[Nel1000]

The driver side window switch light on my Mk2 Fabia isn’t illuminating. Dealer has tried a new switch but can’t find the fault. Window is working fine. Thoughts?

More likely to be a SMD LED rather than a bulb ? so broken wire/s in door loom

I would agree, one of the many possible wires to break within the door loom to A pillar bellows.

 

If I remember correctly it was the blue / grey wire.

 

PS you say Dealer cannot find the fault ??? .....................quite embarrassing to be honest.😕

But not surprising in my opinion and/or experience (delete as you feel appropriate). Clearly didn't want to have to do anything about it even if they knew of the fault.

2 mins with a multi-meter would prove if there was a supply & ground but typical stealership, not really interested in older cars just want to flog you a new one with software problems that they can't fix either lol

Dealer said that it isn’t covered under used car warranty. Do I just pull the rubber cover off from the door at the hinge?

Yes.

Will be broken wires in the loom as said above, I pulled the wires back through and soldered everything.

Most likely a broken wire's in loom get a new one there £85 form dealer and 15mins to fit I've replaced both doors in my vRS estate 👍

You have to release the clip with a screwdriver at the top edge one you remove the rubber.
