The windows and sunroof don't work anyway! It keeps blowing fuse after fuse! As the wires are all broken in the door! But it's been like that for a while only today it started ticking? Could it be linked like you said?

Hi
Pug Lovers
Is this fuse no 29 30A
As I have the same issue keeps blowing
Windows do not work I have disconnected both door connections
and still it blows the fuse . .......Dose anyone know what the engine running supply means as these are apparently linked with the same fuse no 29 on a 30 fused box.
Every thing else is working fine engine starts and runs like f.
I am hoping someone can enlighten me on this issue.
Regards ZAPPA
