The electric rear window on the passenger side doesn't work
I thought it might be the motor so i replaced it, but still no joy.
whilst the quarter panel was off i tried it and the relays are clicking
but still nothing. even tried changing the switches around.
Any ideas? |

No power to the loom plug but power to the switch.
Does this mean i have to strip out half the interior just to try and fix? |

what do you mean by "no power to the loom" ?
even if the switches and relays work, the power connections driving the motor can be broken, either before or after the relay, or the motor could have a bad earth.. |

need to see where the problem is, which may mean ripping the rest of the interior out.
you are aware the fuses to the windows are basically stuck onto the side of the fuse box with tape yeah? Sometimes they are shoved out the way |

I'm lost
Have you checked for corroded contacts on the plug that goes to the door?
I mean inside the car, just before the loom entering the door ? |

well the breaks somewhere between the dash and power plug. Have you check for power across the plug alone or from the positive to the door check as the earth may have corroded and dropped off. |
