If you are really sure that the fuses are intact,, then could be a broken wire on the drivers door

Would broken wire on drivers door affect both windows?

My quick thoughts were that as you can open both windows from the drivers side, then a break in the main wires could do that.

A haines book (on Ebay now) has the diagrams and would confirm it

Malcolm, the switches on a R107 are on the centre console not on drivers door.. has to be a fuse issue...


Thank you very much Jay for that :D

HELP with windows please! Merc 450SLC 1982

I have the same problem - ALL 4 windows. I've checked fuses and central console switches. It would be odd if it were fuses anyway as there are different fuses per side.
Currently both drivers and passengers door windows are down and won't go back up. I've had this once before with both drivers side windows and went back to the car later and they worked. This time no such luck and the car is now insecure and open to the elements. ~
Is there are relay anywhere? If so where should I look?
Hoping someone can help with this urgently please............
Thanks
John :confused:
