I have a 2001 disco with 156,000. It is no longer my daily driver, and when I got in it the other day, I rolled the windows down and the front driver and passenger side would not go back up. Both front the windows were stuck down, the up action on the switches were not engaging the regulator. This was happening on both sides. The regulator would still engage and try to go down even though the window was already down you could hear it trying to work.
I turned the vehicle off locked it with the key, unlocked it with the key, and when I turned it back on in the passenger window went up automatically without me touching anything. However, the driver side would not. I took the switches off the panels switch the passenger with the driver window switch, and the driver would still not go up. I disconnected the battery, Reconnected it, and when I started the truck again, the driver side went up automatically just as the passenger side did without me touching anything. Almost like the signal was delayed somewhere. Once they were both up, I disconnected both switches for the front two windows. During this time the rear windows worked fine every time.
The fuses look good. The battery was on a trickle charger the whole time it was not driven over the last couple months, and it’s also new.
I’m no electrician, so I’m not sure where to start. Any advice on where to look?
