Windows and Central Locking
 
Im in desperate need of some help.

Iv had my 1996 turbo wagon stored in my garage for about a year now.

Iv decided now its time to get it back out and start using it again. When it went away everything worked fine.

I unlocked the car using the alarm fob and it only unlocked the drivers door not the rest as it did before. I tried it using the key and the central locking has stopped working. I then tried the windows and none of them are working either.

Iv checked every fuse i can find in the fuse box down in the drivers footwell and under the bonnet but they are all fine. Iv checked all the wiring going through the doors and none are broken.

Is there any other fuses that i could have missed or does any one know where i can find the relays for the doors and windows?

Any help would be much appreciated

The only way round this is to get a circuit tester/multi-meter, and trace out the wiring from fuse to switch to item to earth. Laborious and takes hours to do.

Look for corroded connectors, bad fuses, sticky switches etc etc.

I managed to sort it in the end. For some reason the windows had lost the switchable live that comes into the plug in the front pass footwell that feeds all the windows so i just ran a new 1 from the stereo wiring as a quick fix for now until i have more time to delve deeper.

Thanks for the advice 'alcazar'
