190e Window Relay Question...

[mike65]

I have none-working rear windows, today I was fiddling on the front ones which had stopped working, I put in new fuses but nothing happened.

Then I spotted the silver relay and pulled it out, gave it a clean and a shake put it back and hey presto! - working front windows. I spotted location holes for a second relay...is this for the rear windows? I'd like to think the problem is that simple to fix!

Hi

I would suspect that the rear window motors may require replacment. The windows are wired up diagonally. So if the front drivers does not work then the rear passenger won't either. Try (and this is very basic) put your ear to the door panel & operate the window switch & see if you can hear the window motor clicking.

:? PS. If you here the motor clicking. You could try this. I know it going to sound very course. But try it. Its worked for me on several occasions. Open one of the front windows. Get some one to operate the rear window holding the button down. Then slam that door closed a few times with the motor switch down . All of a sudden the window may come down & the motor works. If it does work. Watch out because they can stop working again & also stick at the bottom. A little tap with the hammer with the door paneling off some times work.

Told you its a bit course but it sometimes works!!!!!!!


Good luck
