because something has broken.







seriously, give more detail. does it go up? does it go down? does it work with only the key? does it work with only the button? is the window lock button pressed? is the windscreen wiper seated properly? can you hear a relay click? can you move it by hand? can you type better?

it is probably the module in the rear panel they are notorious for packing it in
Keep it shiny side up!
