Hello,
My left / passenger / near side window doesn't work on my recently purchased P38 (1997). Now i've read a lot of threads and ive now gone through a lot of the "usual suspects" with no luck.
The switch pressed down does nothing, the switch pressed up gives the error "window not set > LH - F" with the ever so annoying buzz tone. Both up and down causes a relay in the door outstation to activate, i can hear and feel the click.
Things Tried;
1. When i opened up the outstation there were a few burnt components so i replaced it. No change.
2. Plugged in 2nd hand motor and regulator and touched agaisnt the door (no idea if that's how it earths). No change.
3. Pulled apart plugs, found slight moisture corrosion in black plug between door and body. Cleaned with WD40 and cotton bud. No change.
4. Found wear hole in solid red wire as it passes into the door from outstation, copper still intact just sheath worn through. Continuity tested all the wires from the motor to outstation and outstation to door-body plugs, all fine.
5. Removed switch panel off working P38 and fitted to mine. No change.
So i have run out of things to check. Ideas?
Anyone have a wiring diagram, or know what the red wire does?
I assume its running a CANbus system as it has outstations.
Any ideas/help much appreciated.
