ive found something else aswell, when you open the door you can hear a clicking sound comin from the doors like when the doors are being locked and lastnight the windows worked for like a minute then stopped again??

Hi ,

Dont know if this helps but I had some probs with the drivers window in my 2 as well. I discovered the mounts on the regulator were broken causing the window to move sometimes (I was able to have this welded).

But also the control panel was intermittant.

I took it apart and found it was filthy inside (1992 MR2 G LTD). about 10 mins with a dremel cleaned it all up and no probs since.

Might be worth a look its an easy bit to take out and not too many pieces to loose!

Sorry for the late reply,

if i remember correctly there are 4 mounting points (where it is bolted to the door frame) for the window regulator. On mine two of these mounts were broken and when i tried to open the window it would either not move (makes a fair bit of noise as well!) or mabye move the back or top of the window only.

I chanced bringing the regulator (minus its motor) to a local welder/ workshop and got it welded for €20! (beats payin over €300!) :)

Merry Christmas to ALL...
