I have had a problem with my rear electric windows on my 97 discovery for a while now. I have replaced the ECU 3 times but it keeps blowing in the same place.

Does anybody know how to bypass the ECU for the rear windows and is it safe?

Are you replacing the old with a new or a good used one?

Those stinkers are known for bad solder joints & there is a good fix. I just did my '97 se7

Search the web for - discovery1 rear windows don't work - pictures & all!

luck,greg

I have used good replacements but it keeps blowing. I have tried the repairing solder trick but it doesn't work. Anyone any ideas on bypassing the ECU?

The front windows work fine it's just the rear.
