I found this, but clean it all out with IPA and air, brush etc, but no joy, thinking of getting a loom for it now, and a Station, anyone have a decent 2nd hand window loom???(with the 2 connectors coming out of the door)
this is what I found, seemed promising at first
Found this from 2010
Check wiring from door to Becm the wiring loom from door runs down inside the cars right hand side cover behind bonnet opening lever then runs along the floor,remove plastic trim on door sill and plastic trim around bottom of drivers seat this gives access to BECM terminals lift up drivers floor carpet and this exposes the wiring loom as it goes to the BECM there are 2.no black plastic clips that retain the wiring loom undo these now wiggle the harness wires with the ignition on(make sure you have removed the drivers door card first to expose the Drivers door out station etc)if you hear clicking noises coming from the out station on the drivers door try operating the window switch at this time if the widow operates you know you will have a either a bad BECM connection on the wiring loom or a broken wire. First clean the BECM connector plug and terminals if this cures it all is well if not you will have to check each wire from the plug for continuity with the door out station plugs. On a further point carefully split the rubber cover that protects the door wiring harness as it leaves the car as you open the door and check the wires individually for damage.
Best of Luck I have been there and resolve the same problem

Dopey, just had a thought, you say when you press the window down, up button you here a click ? We'll I had a car with one brake light brighter than the other after much faffing about I put a new earth on and it fixed it, may be you have power but ned to look at earth on window motor, hope this helps.

We have tried a known working switch pack, spare outstation and have been checking the wires for continuity, when you press the window button we get the beeps window not set which points to switch and becm ok,
There is a colour change in the door loom at the a post connector from red to yellow which is hard to follow as there are a few yellows in the door loom, we have yet to try diag as my rovacomlite is laptop run and the battery was flat, (wifes been using it again
) work and the rain has hindered progress any suggestions will be gratefully welcomed.
