rear window lock

Post by Peteseagull »

Hi. my rear passengers are able to open their windows with the window lock off but are unable to raise them again.
They then have to be raised from the drivers position.
Can anyone help?

Hi thanks for that, can you tell me where the master switch located? Is this the switch between the front seats?
Thanks
