Hi guys,
Have a little problem with my 2002 160 TF.
Took it out a week ago and drove it for a few hours. Put the windows down and parked it in my garage again. Once in the garage, I disconnected the battery (with windows down). A week later, I reconnect the battery, everything works fine but the windows are dead and won't come up. Fuses are ok.
Any ideas?

Re: Windows Stuck down
Hi guys, I have an update on the situation. So I found out that the engine bay fan wasn't working either by doing the test (removing socket from engine bay temp sensor). Checked the fuse box and found the fuse for the fan blown. Replaced it and windows started working. However, the moment I tested the fan again, the fuse blew. Any ideas what could be causing this? Short circuited fan? problem with wiring? Is this a common problem?
Cheers
