Thanks for all the replies guys......

Only got round to having a look at this the yesterday. I believe there are two inputs to the electric motor. One from the door switch, and one from the key itself (valet mode). I have 12v at the switch and am also getting the 12v on the up and down wires at the motor yet it won't operate at all. It does click but the motor never appears to try to move.

Yet having said that, when I go to open the car and press the unlock button on my key for a few seconds all the windows go down. Press the lock button on the key for a few seconds and they all go up again. So the motor seems to work ok in valet mode, but not with the switch, so I'm guessing I do need a motor after all ?

Am I right guys ???????

Cheers !

Sounds like the motor... Or more accurately something inside the motor electrics.
