My Daughters boyfriend has recently bought a Skoda Fabia 1.2TSI Monte Carlo (61 Plate 09/2011) for his first Car. The car is really clean, drives well and has a full service history. On getting the car home we've noticed both the Driver and Passenger Electric Windows are not functioning. I've read quite a few really good Threads in this forum that may help me find the fault, however I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction for getting hold of a wiring diagram for the Window Controls and maybe help with Part Numbers for Door Controls and Window Controller Module. The car is not on the road yet, due to the Insurance being really expensive if the cover started immediately. (Saved £800 if cover started in 3 weeks) As I was with him when he bought the car, I feel a little responsible and was hoping to help him resolve the issue, even if it costs me. He's only just past his test a few weeks ago and was really disappointed when he found the fault with the windows...........

Not sure on yours but on the MK1 the drivers side controller/motor also controls passenger side. My sons was the same and Breezy Pete on here repaired it for me. Get in touch with him if he hasnt already seen post. Excellent service. From memory there a couple of components that fail and stop it working. Check fuses etc first and also wiring at drivers door pillar/rubber gaitor in case theres broken wiring which is fairly common.

My money would be on broken wires in driver's door bellows.

As for Insurance I know what you mean. We used Marmalade insurance for my son while he learned to drive. Bought a 1.2htp mk1 for him to learn as all our other cars were 1.9tdi or larger. I put the car on my policy and marmalade covered my son while he learnt. My NCD was protected and was cheapest way we could find. Immediately he passed his test he wasnt covered as its for learners only. Think they do a Blackbox scheme if he has the car in his name.
