#1: Auto electric windows Author: ukskater01, Location: sutton surrey/welwyn garden cityPosted: Sat Jan 15, 2011 9:26 am ---- Hi guys and girls, I've got a 2001 y reg lx with the electric mirrors and windows switch, it has the A on the drivers side button for the window but it has never worked. It seems to be just a normal switch.
Is there any way to get this working? I'm thinking the owner before me may have installed the switch but I'm not sure if a lx is suppose to have it?
Thanks for your time

You giving the switch a light or hard press?
Just gently tap the switch.

#8: Re: Auto electric windows Author: mattievrs, Location: LeicesterPosted: Sat Jan 15, 2011 4:39 pm ---- dont tap it mate, push it all the way as the switches have 2 stages. the first is non auto and the second which is a full press is auto.

That would blow the fuses if that happened
Like Mattie said, the switch has two stages. Pull/push it all the way, you can feel the switch 'click' when its in auto function.
