Hello I have a Passat Estate right hand drive. I have a problem with all my windows; at first it was intermittent what seems loss of power now they do not work at all. I have some knowledge of car maintenance I have looked at the fuse box. I was looking for the relay box but cannot seem to find it. Can you please help with this? Or any other suggestions of what to look at so I can resolve this problem.
Thank you in advance, Kev.

Hello,

I would check the fuse first and if okay it sounds like the drivers door module has gone out which you might need to get programmed which will cost about $130.00 at a shop. Here is the window wiring diagrams and the door module location so you can change it out. I would try a used unit it might plug and play.

Here is a guide to help check the fuse and the wiring diagrams so you can see how the system works:

Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know what happens.
