Check the boots between the door and body, wires maybe shorting on the chassis and moving when you open / close...

ok thanks for the advice but do you no which fuse the door mirrors are on and where is the fuse box on a valver ?

thanks for your help :)

The fuse box is behind the lower dash tray on the very right hand side (where your right knee is assuming you have a RHD) You need to undo a couple of clips and it will slide out. On the back of the tray you remove is a list of what fuse is for what.

 

You might find that the switch just needs a bit of contact cleaner as they suffer from damp due to water dripping in when the window's open.

yeah, probably contact pad on the switch, mine used to do it if i didnt move them for a while, after a quick rough wiggle, they came back to life every time

As Walsey says - if it happens again - get some Contact Cleaner on it.

 

Also good for cleaning MAFs :D

alex darcy sorry i have not got back to you sooner .

the windscreen only cost me £60.00 as i have full comp insurance

if i had to pay for it out of my own pocket i was told the glass was around £275 plus 3hours labour at £60.00 per hour .
