Default SOLVED: Drivers side window won’t move at all!

Hello all, just bought a disco I and i am loving it so far. However my drivers side window will not move at all. I am at a complete loss. Fuse is good, resoldered the bcm, tested the volts at the motor and i am getting around 5 volts. I looked for broken wires in the door but I’m still on the chase. The switch is good too... what else am i missing?

Maybe because you're only getting 5 volts?

Check the motor..... run 12 volts directly from your battery. Any life?

Not to insult but..... are you confident in your use of the multimeter? We can all do flakey things from time to time. I know I sure do.

There was a broken component on the bcm that i had soldered. Hooked everything up then i found out my window motor was shot so i changed that and success! All windows are finally working
