rear window ecu bypass
Hello New to the forums but trying get this figured out. I am trying to get my rear windows to work again i'm following the directions on the AB website but can't seem to find the green and white wire to tap into. Anybody that may have done this could you lead me in the right direction I've got a 1996 Discovery 1
thanks
thanks
here is something i wrote up awhile ago about the window lift ECU:
Repairing the Window Lift ECU - How To
Repairing the Window Lift ECU - How To
Ok so got the ecu out repaired the cold solder joints and still only getting one of my rear windows to work. Now i may have another issue with the other window but the fact that both my front windows quit working is whats bothering me now. I can hear the relay's on the ecu clicking when i press the switch but the motors don't run. Any ideas for this?
I replaced the switches on the console between the seats as mine would work sometimes... I took the old ones apart and cleaned the contact s inside, now they work great! No hidden springs that jump out when you open them up, easily taken apart, cleaned and re-assembled.
Hey Guys,
What's the next step if all this doesn't work?? I've checked the ecu board, which looked good. Soldered up the usual point anyway = no change. Switched the front/rear switches in the center console and that's not it. Tried the AB wire bypass, only not sure into which side of the plug to connect, I did the side closer to the engine bay instead of what seems to run up and to the radio area = no good. Fuses are good too.
BTW, mine is a 95 RRC. I can only see one difference in my ECU circuit board from the Disco - on all the images I can find on other write ups the board is labelled RY2E, mine is RY2D and looks slightly different; the jumper wire that everyone has put in spans a different set of solders on mine.
Pics are in the next post!
Any ideas are greatly appreciated.
