#1: Electric window.. Author: ChrissyPUG, Location: ScotlandPosted: Mon Nov 14, 2011 12:53 pm ---- One of my passengers spilled juice into my electric window switch and it affected the drivers side only, it stopped working so i went and bought a whole new switch.. fitted it and the window still does not work.
it may be worth mentioning that i had to remove the door card and undo the coil/motor or whatever it is to loosen the window in order to push the window up, could i have messed with that coil and thats what may need replacing?
#2: Re: Electric window.. Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Mon Nov 14, 2011 12:55 pm ---- You did that the a******e way up
Check to see if there is +12v at the motor when you press the switch, that will answer your question.
#3: Re: Electric window.. Author: MrBSI, Location: What's it to you? ? ?Posted: Mon Nov 14, 2011 12:56 pm ---- Most likely blown the fuse for the electric windows.
Also just in case, you cant fit a AUTO electric window switch in place of a normal switch.
#4: Re: Electric window.. Author: ChrissyPUG, Location: ScotlandPosted: Mon Nov 14, 2011 1:01 pm ---- where will i find the fuse for it?
what you talking about an AUTO electric switch?

Cabin fuse box is where the fuses live.
AUTO electric switch has a A on the drivers switch for one shot up & down, you cant plug one of these in to a 206 with just normal electric windows.
#6: Re: Electric window.. Author: ChrissyPUG, Location: ScotlandPosted: Mon Nov 14, 2011 1:11 pm ---- yeah any idea on the number or is there a drawing?
ahh nah it was the exact same one as i had i replaced it with.
thanks for replies !
#7: Re: Electric window.. Author: paul_c, Location: UKPosted: Mon Nov 14, 2011 1:29 pm ---- There is a FAQ somewhere with fusebox location, and location/description of each fuse. The info is also in the owner's manual.
#8: Re: Electric window.. Author: lmay, Location: SydneyPosted: Thu Dec 15, 2011 6:17 am ---- Hi i have the same problem except only the the drivers side window doesn't go up when pressed. But when i press down it works.. so now the driver's side window is completely open and i have no idea how to put it back up.
i've been searching for diagrams on what the inside of the window switch should look like but failed to find any.
can someone please help??

It looks like a printed circuit board with components soldered on to it.
If you have a A button for driver / one shot window then there will also be 2 small realys soldered on to the other side of the circuit board.
The window circuit is simple.
2 wires to the window motor, when the switch is operated one wire has + 12 volts on the other is earthed.
To make the window move the other way the polarity of the wires is simply swopped around inside the switch.
#10: Re: Electric window.. Author: lmay, Location: SydneyPosted: Thu Dec 15, 2011 3:34 pm ---- thanks for the speedy reply. unfortunately i dont have a clue about circuts and wiring
i was just hoping it would be an easy fix like attaching a wire or changing a fuse.
im just trying to avoid paying hundreds of dollars for a mechanic to tell me that i need a whole new part if i didnt need one.
is it simple for a girl like me to swap the polarity of the wires with not much knowledge and only basic tools?
#11: Re: Electric window.. Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Thu Dec 15, 2011 3:39 pm ---- I'll sell you a working switch if you have a 2001 or older car.
#12: Re: Electric window.. Author: lmay, Location: SydneyPosted: Sat Dec 17, 2011 3:44 am ---- how much are you selling it for?
#13: Re: Electric window.. Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Sat Dec 17, 2011 8:47 am ---- I've PM'd you
#14: Re: Electric window.. Author: B1gM4c, Location: DerbyPosted: Thu Feb 09, 2012 1:44 pm ---- My passenger window is stuck down and neither of the switches are working, also my central locking isn't working or my rear wiper... This is a result from me fitting my Amp in my boot. Any suggestions on how to make my Windows/Central Locking work again? Thanks

Replace the fuse you have blown when messing about with the electrics.
If you RTFM it will tell you which fuse to look at / replace.
#16: Re: Electric window.. Author: B1gM4c, Location: DerbyPosted: Sat Feb 11, 2012 2:26 am ---- Sorry, my son has posted this message. What he has failed to mention is that the cars battery was not disconnected/connected correctly and the car may have a BSI issue? We have checked fuses and believe I can hear relays clicking etc. We have tried the software reboot but didnt work although I am going to try again once the weather gets a bit warmer later today. I do have an OBDII scanner which I need to get from my son in law, do you think this will highlight what is causing the electrical issues? Thanks for your help in advance....frustrated dad!!

#18: Re: Electric window.. Author: Sim, Location: West CountryPosted: Sat Dec 26, 2015 5:12 pm ---- Take the switch out and give it a clean?
#19: Re: Electric window.. Author: mtempsch, Location: Gothenburg, SwedenPosted: Sun Dec 27, 2015 5:19 am ---- Disconnect the switch. In the plug on the loom find the +12V and ground going into the switch as well as the two wires going out to the window, and then jumper the incoming to the outgoing. Depending on which way around the +12 and ground are connected that should move the window up or down... The circuit diagrams in the Maintenance Howto forum should be helpful to find the right pins.
That should get the window up for the short term.
Then disassemble and clean the switch. Water, isopropyl alcohol/water mix. Last rinse I'd use pure alcohol for faster avaporation/drying. Or source a new switch.

#21: Re: Electric window.. Author: Sim, Location: West CountryPosted: Mon Dec 28, 2015 7:44 am ---- Could you not short circuit the switch terminals itself?

That's effectively what I describe, but with the lump of the switch out of the way. If you've got enough slack in the loom to easily get at the back of the connector while attached to the switch, it can be done on the backside of the connector as well.
It's also two sets of terminals, incoming ground to outgoing1 and incoming +12 to outgoig2, since the wires to the window motor shift polarity depend which way the window is to move, none of them have either constan +12 or constant ground.
You can do effectively the same by running loose wires from a battery and poke the motor terminals directly, out in the door.
