Hello, the issue could be down to the switch for operating the windows. I had a similar issue and removed the window switch and stripped it apart in order to clean the contacts. It's a bit fiddly and there are some small parts that you need to be careful with but it could be a cheap fix for you.

Try operating the windows by turning the key in driver's side door lock and holding it fully turned. (Start with locked car).

Doors should all unlock and if you keep key fully turned, windows should start lowering together. 

That effectively bypasses the switches to test the motor itself.

family friend who is doing my MOT next weekend is willing to change the switches for me is it these I need? 

Breezy_pete I've tried that in the past that didn't work but my central licking isn't great lol

Locking**

Probably the module, not the switches, but see if the switches light up if the car's lights are switched on.

That tests for unbroken earth connection to switch pack, if they do illuminate, very unlikely that both switches failed at same time.

Message me with the VIN if you'd like me to check part number of motor module, without any door disassembly.

Yes that's them - both of mine were faulty due to water ingress. Hopefully that will sort your issue
