[diesel_mercedes] Re: Re : Electric Window Gremlins

 

Tom,
Thank you for the good advice. I will look into the screws holding the console plate on. Maybe the gremlin for the windows is in there. As you may have seen in my last post, I can look at the wires in the other rear window switch (without disturbing them) and get the proper order for the one I messed with.
I see it can be tricky to get the switch badk togeather correctly. I saw one of them little balls in the switch, and wondered if there was supposed to be two.
I will definately will have to slow down on taking thinga apart like that!
BTW, the fuses are all OK and making contact.
