    Failed electric window - Classic RR

    The rear drivers side electric window has failed. Fortunately in the 'up' / closed position.

    I need to get it functioning again so I can get the windows tinted.

    Anyone suggest the best way of tracking the fault ? Anyone had this problem before ?

    Is it more likely to be the switch, motor, something else ?
    It's not broken. It's "Carbon Neutral".

    After checking fuses etc......I aways look at the main group of switches.....the way they're mounted [position, angle etc] makes them prone to getting dirt, dust, dog hair etc into them.

    Carefully lift out the panel or just the faulty one and spray clean with CRC Automotive Electrical Cleaner and then follow up, when it's totally dry with, Silicone Spray to keep it clean and non- sticky.
