Hi all.

After doing some research into my rear windows not operating by either switches, I took the time to remove the PCB behind the glovebox.
Upon removal of the PCB I am struggling to see any connections which aren't ok.
Apologies for the poor photo; I used the best camera we have!

Any help appreciated.

Kind regards, Stuart.

So an I Poor soldering of the PCBs components will be obvious.

Yeah, I thought it'd be blatantly obvious when I removed it.
I wonder of it's worth trying a replacement from a breaker...?

Is there not an isolator switch in the front that disables the rear windows to stop pesky kids opening and closing them? Could this not be goosed?

Is that the switch in the centre? Always wondered what that was for...!? Lol.
It's with the other window switches...
I could refit this beast of a PCB and then try hardwiring the isolator switch.
Thinking on, if it was the isolator switch, the 'drivers' switches that control the rear windows should still operate as they would have overall control.

This is the joint that was faulty on mine and seems to be the common one, it had a very faint hairline crack all around the edge.

When I did mine none of the joints stood out as dry joints but i just touched the soldering iron on any that didn't look quite as shiny as the rest. Been OK for over a year now.

Try resold erring the joints, but if you can source a spare ECU then try that too.
