Electric Windows Packed Up ! 3.2 Carrera

[993 C4]

I've had this before in a previous 3.2 but cannot remember the fix. Checked all fuses under front lid. Everything else electrical appears to be working. Any ideas please comrades ??

Switch or relay?

Mine was a broken live feed to the drivers switch which also feeds the other switch, took hours to find

Thanks Paul. Stupidly I've replaced the relay behind the speedo but to no effect. It now appears she's blowing the fuse as soon as I re connect the battery without operating any switches, so assuming there must be a short somewhere in the wiring ?
I've removed the door card / membrane and cannot see any broken wiring and all looks very tidy & original.
Assuming the problem lay somewhere between exiting the door and enering the body, what is the best method of accessing the collection of wires running from the door into the body ?

Cheers,

Nick.

You will need a meter and buzz between the live feed and the socket by the central looking relay [looking from the front left hand corner under the windscreen] my break was just by the A
pillar

Found the culprit......broken wire in passenger door due to what looks like an earlier check strap failure. Now replaced strap and broken wiring. Now all looks good in the hood.....or should I say door !
Many thanks for earlier suggestions.

Nick.
