JMC 0 Posted November 14, 2007 With regards to the electric mirrors - is it an early (square) or late (round) one? The late ones often fail, and the switch can be taken apart and the electrical contacts cleaned as they corrode. It has been addressed many times and if you use the search it will bring that up. Not sure if the early ones fail as often, and I've never taken an early one apart so don't know how easy that is. For the windows, AFAIK the unit is all one thing, but if you are happy drilling out some rivets then the motor can be replaced. First thing to try is greasing/lubing the edges of the glass - seems to work for some people. Otherwise it may have popped out of a runner at the edge. Again try the search, as there are loads of threads on the window problems. And yes, they have their fair share of niggly faults :? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
