Ok guys need some serious help as my passenger side window is stuck down and its getting colder.
How hard is it to replace this?
Also, where does it lead to? i was thinking that maybe it all just goes straight into the fuse box, therefore would be easy to replace?
Any help earns you some serious declan love

you dont need to replace it. just repair it. Got a soldering iron and some wire? Cut back the loom so you can see what you are doing and get cracking.

Surely you can cut back to big part of the plug. I had this on an old one of mine and managed it.

Dec, I reckon it'd be easier to cut a loom and plug from a scrap car then stick that on (i know it mean cutting the two good wires on your loom lol ) cos that window wire is broken too fsr down to solder I think.

its easy to replace the complete loom without cutting anything, and its french, the colour means nothing, all the wires are numbered

Bit of advice, when you do it don't cut the whole plug off in one go. I did this expecting to use the numbers but they had rubbed off! Now my c/l doesn't work at all! Fail! Cut and join 1 wire at a time so you don't loose track.

Remove all the seats and rear carpet
remove the metal bracket both sides holding the dash in(has the bonnet catch leaver bolted to it)
unplug from the doors and pull the plugs into the car
if its a 4 door pull the grommet out from the door pillar and unplug the rear doors
On ph2 unplug the central locking unit under drivers seat
unplug the loom from behind the fuse box, white and possibly a blue one too
lift up the side of the fount carpet (both sides)and pull out the loom
You will see what i mean when you start pulling it out and just put it back in the same
